IL-6 increases SDCBP expression, cell proliferation, and cell invasion by activating JAK2/STAT3 in human glioma cells.

ABSTRACT: Syndecan-binding protein (SDCBP), which is induced by tumor necrosis factor-α and interferon-γ, controls the proliferation and invasion of several different types of cancer cells. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is known to play an important role in the glioma cell growth and invasion. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between IL-6 and SDCBP in glioma cells. SDCBP expression was knocked down in two glioma cell lines (T98G and U87) by small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection. Cell proliferation and invasion were significantly repressed following SDCBP knockdown, and there was a positive correlation between SDCBP and IL-6 expression levels in glioma tissues. IL-6 stimulation dose- and time-dependently induced SDCBP expression at both mRNA and protein levels. Furthermore, pre-tre
