乳酸脫氫酶C4在骨肉瘤中的表達與生物學功能的初步研究

乳酸脫氫酶C4在骨肉瘤中的表達與生物學功能的初步研究摘要：

目的：本研究旨在探討乳酸脫氫酶C4（LDHC4）在骨肉瘤中的表達情況和生物學功能。

方法：通過Real-timePCR和Westernblotting分析LDHC4在骨肉瘤組織和正常骨組織中的表達情況，利用siRNA技術抑制LDHC4基因的表達，采用細胞增殖、遷移和凋亡檢測實驗研究其對骨肉瘤細胞的影響。

結果：LDHC4在骨肉瘤組織中表達水平明顯高于正常骨組織，LDHC4基因的抑制可明顯抑制骨肉瘤細胞的增殖和遷移能力，并能夠誘導細胞凋亡。

結論：LDHC4在骨肉瘤中高表達，可能參與了骨肉瘤細胞的增殖和遷移，且對骨肉瘤細胞的生長和存活具有重要作用，可能成為新的治療靶點。

關鍵詞：乳酸脫氫酶C4、骨肉瘤、增殖、遷移、凋亡

Methods:TheexpressionofLDHC4inosteosarcomatissuesandnormalbonetissueswasanalyzedbyreal-timePCRandwesternblotting.ThesiRNAtechniquewasusedtosuppresstheexpressionofLDHC4,andtheeffectsofLDHC4ontheproliferation,migration,andapoptosisofosteosarcomacellswerethenexamined.

Results:LDHC4wassignificantlyupregulatedinosteosarcomatissuescomparedwithnormalbonetissues,andthesuppressionofLDHC4markedlyinhibitedtheproliferationandmigrationofosteosarcomacellsandinducedapoptosis.

Conclusion:LDHC4washighlyexpressedinosteosarcomaandmayparticipateintheproliferationandmigrationofosteosarcomacells.Moreover,theproteinplaysacriticalroleinpromotingthegrowthandsurvivalofosteosarcomacells,makingitapotentialnoveltherapeutictarget.
