摘要
Human choriocarcinoma is one of the most aggressive malignant tumors characterized by early hematogenous spread to lung and brain tissues, and may be a cause of death in patients. Choriocarcinoma may occur following pregnancy and during implantation; however, trophoblastic invasion in human pregnancy is tightly regulated. The transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) has been suggested to play a role in controlling this process. In this study, we investigated the impact of TGF-beta 1 on invasion, as well as its sites of action in the TGF-beta 1/Smad pathway using a JEG-3 choriocarcinoma cell line. Following the treatment of cells with different doses of TGF-beta 1, cell invasion was observed. We also detected the expression of TGF-beta receptor type I (T beta R I) and TGF-beta receptor type II (T beta R II), Smad4, matrix metalloprotease (MMP)-9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1 in JEG-3 cells. Our data demonstrated that TGF-beta 1 promoted the invasive capability of JEG-3 cells depending on the downregulation of T beta R I, T beta R II, Smad4 and the upregulation of MMP-9 and TIMP-I. These observations suggest that TGF-beta 1 may play a critical role in the initiation of the trophoblastic invasion process.
