The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the differential expression of the sterol O‐acyltransferase 1 (SOAT1) protein in gallbladder cancer tissues and cells, investigate the impact of Avastin on the proliferation, migration, invasion capabilities of gallbladder cancer cells, and its potential to induce cell apoptosis. Immunohistochemical analysis of samples from 145 gallbladder cancer patients was conducted, along with analysis of SOAT1 protein, mRNA expression levels, and cholesterol content in gallbladder cancer cell lines SGC‐996, NOZ, and gallbladder cancer (GBC)‐SD using Western blot and q‐PCR techniques. Furthermore, the effects of Avastin on the proliferation, migration, and invasion capabilities of these gallbladder cancer cell lines were studied, and its ability to induce cell apoptosis was evaluated using flow cytometry, Western blot, and immunohistochemical methods. Additionally, gene expression and pathway analysis were performed, and the synergistic therapeutic effects of Avastin combined with gemcitabine were tested in a gallbladder cancer xenograft model. The study found that SOAT1 expression was significantly upregulated in GBC tissues and positively correlated with lymph node metastasis and TNM staging. In vitro experiments demonstrated that Avastin significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion capabilities of SGC‐996 and GBC‐SD cell lines and induced apoptosis. RNA sequencing analysis revealed multiple differentially expressed genes in cells treated with Avastin, primarily enriched in biological pathways such as signaling transduction, malignant tumors, and the immune system. In vivo, experiments confirmed that Avastin could effectively suppress tumor growth in a gallbladder cancer xenograft model and enhanced the treatment efficacy when used in combination with gemcitabine. Overall, these findings provide new insights and strategies for targeted therapy in gallbladder cancer.
