TBX2 over-expression promotes nasopharyngeal cancer cell proliferation and invasion

Abstract: TBX2 is a member of the T box transcription factor family. Its expression and potential biological functions in nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) cells are studied here. We showed that TBX2 mRNA and protein expression was significantly elevated in multiple human NPC tissues, as compared with that in adjacent normal tissues. Knockdown of TBX2 by targeted-siRNA significantly inhibited proliferation and invasion of NPC cells (CNE-1 and HONE-1 lines). Meanwhile, TBX2 knockdown also induced G1-phase cell cycle arrest.

“…Complete medium (with fetal bovine serum [FBS]) was added to the lower chamber. After 48 h of incubation, cells on the lower surface of the membrane were fixed, stained and then counted in five random fields [37]. Mitomycin (1.5 μg/mL; Sigma-Aldrich) was always added to exclude the influence of cell proliferation.…”

“…It regulates cell cycle progression (Bilican and Goding 2006), and its overexpression has been demonstrated in promoting or maintaining the proliferation of many cancers including melanomas (Vance et al 2005), nasopharyngeal cancer (Lv et al 2017), breast cancer D'Costa et al 2014), prostate cancer (Du et al 2017), and gastric cancer (Yu et al 2015). Here, we show that three copies of the TBX2 gene exist in HepG2 cancer cells as a result of duplication in Haplotype 2.…”
