P53 Deficiency Accelerates Esophageal Epithelium Intestinal Metaplasia Malignancy.

ABSTRACT: Barrett's esophagus (BE) is a precancerous lesion of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). It is a pathological change in which the squamous epithelium distal esophagus is replaced by columnar epithelium. Loss of P53 is involved in the development of BE and is taken as a risk factor for the progression. We established a HET1A cell line with P53 stably knockdown by adenovirus vector infection, followed by 30 days of successive acidic bile salt treatment. MTT, transwell assay, and wound closure assay were applied to assess cell proliferation and migration ability. The expression of key factors was analyzed by RT-qPCR, western blotting and immunohistochemical staining. Our data show that the protein expression level of P53 reduced after exposure to acidic bile salt treatment,
