Cytosolic fraction of MCF7 cells, SLC22A18 KD

ABSTRACT: The SLC22A18 gene, which encodes an orphan transporter, is located at the 11p15.5 imprinted region, an important tumor-suppressor gene region. However, the role of SLC22A18 in tumor suppression remains unclear. Here, we investigated the involvement of SLC22A18 in cell growth, invasion and drug resistance of MCF7 human breast cancer cell line. Western blot analysis indicated that SLC22A18 is predominantly expressed at intracellular organelle membranes. Quantitative proteomics showed that knockdown of SLC22A18 significantly altered the expression of 578 (31.0%) out of 1867 proteins identified, including proteins related to malignancy and poor prognosis of breast cancer.
