摘要
DJ-1, an oncogene, has been reported to be an independent prognostic indicator of poor survival in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of DJ-1 in tumor cell proliferation and invasion in ESCC and its underlying mechanisms. It was observed that the expression level of DJ-1 was upregulated and positively associated with EMT biomarkers in 84 human ESCC tissue specimens. Overexpression and knockdown experiments demonstrated that DJ-1 was involved in proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT in ECA-109 cells in vitro and extensive peritoneal seeding in a peritoneal dissemination mice model. Furthermore, the present data revealed that DJ-1 could activate the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway, which mediates the EMT and metastasis in ESCC. In conclusions, DJ-1 promoted proliferation, invasion, metastasis and the EMT in ESCC via activation of the Wnt/beta-catenin signal pathway. The present results suggested DJ-1 could represent a promising therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of ESCC-related metastasis.
