Patients were divided into high- and low-expression groups on the basis of NCAPD3 levels, and associations with clinical parameters were assessed. The effects of NCAPD3 knockdown and the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) agonist Y-P 740 on cell functions were examined via cell proliferation, Transwell migration, and invasion assays. Differentially expressed genes following NCAPD3 knockdown in SMMC-7721 cells were identified via mRNA sequencing. Western blotting was performed to measure NCAPD3, AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 (AKT1), and phosphorylated AKT1 levels.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>NCAPD3 mRNA expression was notably upregulated in HCC tissues as compared with that in adjacent noncancer tissues. A positive correlation was observed between NCAPD3 expression and both lymphatic and distant metastases in patients with HCC. NCAPD3 knockdown reduced the proliferation and metastasis of SMMC-7721 and Huh-7 cells. mRNA sequencing revealed 140 downregulated genes and 125 upregulated genes. Further validation experiments confirmed that NCAPD3 modulated the PI3K-AKT signalling pathway and that the PI3K agonist Y-P 740 counteracted the effects of NCAPD3 knockdown.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Elevated NCAPD3 expression was strongly correlated with HCC metastasis. NCAPD3 inhibition impedes HCC cell growth and metastatic potential by suppressing the PI3K-AKT signalling pathway.</p>","PeriodicalId":10820,"journal":{"name":"Current Medical Science","volume":" ","pages":"253-263"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143540340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
