Abstract
The present work focused on investigating the role of the altered expression of complement C1s in proliferation and apoptosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells and explore its biological functions in ESCC, so as to lay a theoretical foundation and provide certain clinical reference for diagnosing and treating ESCC. Complement C1s expression within ESCC was assessed, and its clinical pathological characteristics in ESCC patients were analyzed. Subsequently, in vitro experiments were performed to further explore the mechanisms by which complement C1s affected ESCC. According to the results, complement C1s expression within ESCC markedly increased relative to adjacent non-cancerous samples. High C1s expression showed positive relation to race, residual lesion, and tumor location of ESCC patients. Complement C1s affected ESCC cell proliferation and apoptosis. Notably, C1s knockdown significantly inhibited ESCC cell proliferation and enhanced their apoptosis. C1s suppressed ESCC cell proliferation via Wnt1/β-catenin pathway and promoted their apoptosis through modulating the expression of Bcl2, Bax, and cleaved-caspase3.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
