Effects of targeted CD97 immune epitopes small interference RNA on cellular biological behaviors in MDA-MB231 malignant breast cancer cell line.

ABSTRACT: Two CD97 immune epitopes, CD97^EGF (epidermal growth factor domain) and CD97^Stalk (stalk domain), have different distribution patterns in malignant epidermal tumors. However, little is known about the effect of CD97^EGF and CD97^Stalk immune epitopes in breast cancer metastasis. To explore the effects on cell proliferation, infiltration, apoptosis, and the cell cycle, we used small interfering RNA (siRNA) against CD97^EGF and CD97^Stalk immune epitopes to knock down CD97 in MDA-MB231 breast cancer cells. Compared with controls, CD97 knockdown caused decreased cell growth, proliferation, migration, infiltration, and altered distribution of the percentage of cells in G0/G1 and S phase. We suggest that the potential mechanism of CD9
