Research Abstract |
The expression of lipocalin2 (LCN2) was silenced using shRNA in HHUA, an endometrial carcinoma cell line over-expressing LCN2. The cell viability was significantly reduced and the apoptotic cells were significantly increased in this LCN2-silenced HHUA after ultraviolet (UV) irradiation or cisplatin (CDDP) treatment. The iron-chelating also reduced cell viability similar to LCN2-suppression. The expression of phosphorylated Akt was reduced in LCN2-silenced HHUA. These findings suggested that LCN2 enhanced cell survival via iron and Akt phosphorylation.
