The pituitary tumor-derived transforming gene (PTTG) is considered to be implicated in the tumorigenesis of cancers when the gene is epigenetically transformed. In this study, we investigated the relationships between aberrant expression and epigenetic changes of the PTTG1 gene in pancreatic cancer. METHODS: We chose 4 cell lines (PANC-1, Colo357, T3M-4 and PancTu I) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tissues. After using restriction isoschizomer endonucleases (Msp I /Hpa II) to digest the DNA sequence (5'-CCGG-3'), we performed PCR reaction to amplify the product. And RT-PCR was applied to determine the gene expression. RESULTS: The mRNA expression of the PTTG1 gene was higher in pancreatic tumor than in normal tissue. The gene was also expressed in the 4 PDAC cell lines. The methylation states of the upstream regions of the PTTG1 gene were almost identical in normal, tumor pancreatic tissues and the 4 PDAC cell lines. Some (5'-CCGG-3') areas in the upstream region of PTTG1 were methylated, while some others were unmethylated. CONCLUSIONS: The oncogene PTTG1 was overexpressed in pancreatic tumor tissues and verified by RT-PCR detection. The methylation status of DNA in promoter areas was involved in the gene expression with the help of other factors in pancreatic cancer.展开更多

Methods: Glioma C6 cells were divided into four groups: A group, treated without IGF-1; B group, treated with 0.1 ng/mL dose of IGF-1; C group, treated with 1 ng/mL dose of IGF-1; D group, treated with 10 ng/mL dose of IGF-1. PTTG mRNA was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), western blotting was used to detect the expression of PTTG protein. Results: The expressions of PTTG mRNA were 1.370 ± 0.212, 2.198 ± 0.354, 3.452 ± 0.332, and 4.576 ± 0.387 respectively in the four groups, and there was a significantly difference between any two groups (P < 0.01). The protein expressions of PTTG in the four groups were 1.407 ± 0.334, 1.813 ± 0.465, 2.412 ± 0.576, and 3.128 ± 0.665 respectively, and there was a significantly difference between any two groups (P < 0.01). Conclusion: IGF-1 can up-regulate the expression of PTTG significantly in dosage-dependent manner.展开更多

Gene amplification and recombination were also examined in some tumors simultaneously. Some alleles of oncogene are reported in Chinese population for the first time. Moreover, the characteristic frequency of some "rare" alleles and genotypes occurred in some tumor samples is significantly higher than that occured in normal individuals. Pedigree analysis for 2 patients showed that some "rare" alleles are also abandant. Besides, gene amplification and recombination were found in some tumors.展开更多

The mRNA expression levels of PTTG1, proliferation genes and invasion genes in the lesions were determined. Results:PTTG1, Survivin, Bcl-2, CyclinD1, GPRC6A, ZEB1, CatB, CatD and PAR-1 mRNA expression in prostate cancer lesions of malignant group were significantly higher than those of benign group whereas CDKN2, p21 and TFPI2 mRNA expression were significantly lower than those of benign group;Survivin, Bcl-2, CyclinD1, GPRC6A, ZEB1, CatB, CatD and PAR-1 mRNA expression in prostate cancer lesions with high PTTG1 were significantly higher than those in prostate cancer lesions with low PTTG1 whereas CDKN2, p21 and TFPI2 mRNA expression were significantly lower than those in prostate cancer lesions with low PTTG1.Conclusion:The PTTG1 gene is highly expressed in prostate cancer lesions and it is closely related to the changes of proliferation and invasion gene expression.展开更多
