Abstract:Objective: To explore the effect and possible mechanism of fluvastatin sodium on the proliferation and apoptosis of colorectal cancer SW620 cells. Methods: SW620 cells and normal colorectal epithelial FHC cells were cultured in vitro, and the expression of lncRNA PTPRG-AS1 in the cells was detected by qRT-PCR. SW620 cells were divided into control group, fluvastatin sodium-low, medium and high groups, si-PTPRG-AS1 group, si-NC group, fluvastatin sodium+pcDNA-PTPRG-AS1 group, fluvastatin sodium+pcDNA group. CCK-8 method, clone formation assay and flow cytometry were used to detect cell viability, clone formation number, apoptosis rate, and Western blot was used to detect the expression of apoptosis-related proteins (cleaved-caspase3, cleaved-caspase9). Results: The expression of lncRNA PTPRG-AS1 in colorectal cancer SW620 cells was higher than that in FHC cells (4.38±0.31 vs 1.00±0.00, P<0.05). The cell viability and the number of colonies formed in the fluvastatin sodium-low, medium and high groups were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05), but the apoptosis rate and protein (cleaved-caspase3, cleaved-caspase9) expression were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05), and the expression of lncRNA PTPRG-AS1 was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05). The cell viability and the number of colonies formed in the si-PTPRG-AS1 group were lower than those in the si-NC group(P<0.05), but the apoptosis rate and protein (cleaved-caspase3, cleaved-caspase9) expression were higher than those in the si-NC group(P<0.05). The cell viability and the number of colonies formed in the fluvastatin sodium+pcDNA-PTPRG-AS1 group were higher than those in the fluvastatin sodium+pcDNA group(P<0.05), but the apoptosis rate and protein (cleaved-caspase3, cleaved-caspase9) expression were lower than those in the fluvastatin sodium+pcDNA group(P<0.05). Conclusion: Fluvastatin sodium may inhibit the proliferation and promote apoptosis of colorectal cancer SW620 cells by down-regulating the expression of lncRNA PTPRG-AS1.
