Effect of CTP-mediated PTEN on 5637 bladder cancer cells and the underlying molecular mechanism.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The aim of the present study was to explore the effect of cytoplasmic transduction peptide (CTP)-phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) on the proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis, migration and invasion of bladder cancer cells and the underlying molecular mechanism.

Methods

A eukaryotic expression vector, pTT5-CTP-PTEN, was constructed. The constructed vector was transfected into HEK 293-6E cells to express a fusion protein, CTP-PTEN. The fusion protein was purified. 5637 bladder cancer cells were cocultured with purified CTP-PTEN fusion protein. Target gene expression, protein expression, cell proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis, cell invasion and cell migration were examined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), western blot, MTT assay, fl
