Abstract
AIM: To examine the expression of chromodomain helicase/ATPase DNA binding protein 1-like gene (CHD1L) in colorectal cancer and to investigate its role in colorectal cancer cell migration and invasion.
METHODS: The expression of CHD1L in colorectal cancer and adjacent tissues was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western blot. The migration and invasion abilities of colorectal cancer cells overexpressing or underexpressing CHD1L were examined by scratch-wound migration and transwell invasion assays.
RESULTS: CHD1L mRNA and protein expression in colorectal cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in matched adjacent tissues. CHD1L in colon cancer cell lines also showed high expression. Transfection with CHD1L-shRNA in LOVO and DLD-1 cells significantly reduced the expression of CHD1L mRNA and protein, and inhibited the invasion and migration of cancer cells. In vivo experiments further showed that knockdown of CHD1L dramatically decreased the incidence of intrahepatic and lung metastases.
CONCLUSION: CHD1L is highly expressed in colorectal cancer tissues and cells, and it plays an important role in colorectal cancer invasion and migration. CHD1L may become a new target for treatment of colorectal cancer.
