Tie1 derived from cervical cancer promotes the invasion and metastasis by Ang1 mediating Tie2/PI3K/Akt signaling axis and angiogenesis.

ABSTRACT: Tie1, an orphan receptor, is a receptor tyrosine kinase that is expressed in endothelial cells. It can form a polymer with Tie2, thereby regulating the Ang/Tie2 signaling pathway, which is crucial for angiogenesis and plays a significant role in tumor progression. However, the specific role of Tie1, particularly in tumor processes, remains poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the functional effects of Tie1 knockdown in cervical cancer both in vitro and in vivo. We used CCK-8, wound healing, and Transwell assays to evaluate cervical cancer cell proliferation and migration in vitro. Additionally, we established subcutaneous xenograft tumor and lung metastasis mouse models to examine tumor growth and metastasis.
