Research Abstract |
Expression of clock genes, DEC1 and DEC2 were up-regulated in the MCF-7 human breast cancer cells by TNF-α in a concentration-dependent manner. TNF-α induced the apoptosis of MCF-7 cells. We also demonstrated that siRNA-mediated DEC2 knockdown, but not DEC1, increased the Bax expression, cleavage PARP and cleavage caspase-7 in MCF-7 cells. In conclusion, we speculated that DEC2 plays an important role in the regulation of both apoptosis and proliferation of the MCF-7 cells. In human breast cancer MCF-7 cells, paclitaxel increased the expression of DEC1 and DEC2. However, DEC1 and DEC2 exhibited opposite effects in paclitaxel inducing apoptosis, That is DEC1 has pro-apoptotic, while DEC2 has anti-apoptotic function. Both the two transcription factors play important roles in regulating paclitaxel induced apoptosispathway.
