B4GalT1 Regulates Apoptosis and Autophagy of Glioblastoma In Vitro and In Vivo.

ABSTRACT: Our study was designed to investigate the role of B4GalT1 in glioblastoma, in vitro and in vivo, to detect whether B4GalT1 knockdown could regulate the development of glioblastoma, and further observe the relationship between B4GalT1 knockdown and the apoptosis and autophagy of glioblastoma. To begin, we looked at TCGA and GEPIA systems to predict the potential function of B4GalT1. Western blot and RT-PCR were used to analyze the expression, or mRNA level, of B4GalT1 at different tissue or cell lines. Next, the occurrence and development of glioblastoma, in vitro and in vivo, was observed by using B4GalT1 knocked down by lentivirus. Finally, the apoptosis and autophagy of glioblastoma was observed in vitro and in vivo. Results show that B4GalT1 was a highly variable gene, and GEPIA and TCG
