HPV16 E6/E7 promote the translocation and glucose uptake of GLUT1 by PI3K/AKT pathway via relieving miR-451 inhibitory effect on CAB39 in lung cancer cells.

ABSTRACT:

Background

HPV16 E6/E7 proteins are the main oncogenes and only long-term persistent infection causes lung cancer. Our previous studies have shown that HPV16 E6/E7 protein up-regulates the expression of GLUT1 in lung cancer cells. However, whether E6 and E7 protein can promote the glucose uptake of GLUT1 and its molecular mechanism are unclear.

Methods

The regulatory relationships of E6 or E7, miR-451, CAB39, PI3K/AKT, and GLUT1 were detected by double directional genetic manipulations in lung cancer cell lines. Immunofluorescence and flow cytometry were used to detect the effect of CAB39 on promoting the translocation to the plasma membrane of GLUT1. Flow cytometry and confocal microscopy were performed to detect the glucose uptake levels of GLUT1.
