[EEFSEC knockdown inhibits proliferation, migration and invasion of prostate cancer cells in vitro].

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate the role of selenocysteine-tRNA specific eukaryotic elongation factor (EEFSEC) in regulating the proliferation, migration, and invasion of human prostate cancer 22Rv1 cells.

Methods

We detected EEFSEC mRNA expression levels in human normal prostate cell line RWPE1 and human prostate cancer cell lines 22Rv1, LNCaP, Vcap and PC-3 using qRT-PCR and EEFSEC protein expression in surgical specimens of prostate cancer and adjacent tissues using Western blotting. 22Rv1 cells were infected with a lentiviral vector carrying EEFSEC shRNA or a control lentivirus and the interference efficiency was determined using Western blotting. XTT assay was used to assess the changes in the viability of the infected cells, and Transwell chamber assay was used to examine the
