P300 reduces TUBB4B expression to facilitate the biological process of migration and invasion of non-small cell lung cancer cells

This article explored the mechanism of E1A binding protein p300 (P300) and beta-tubulin 4B isotype-encoding gene (TUBB4B) in regulating the migration and invasion of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. TUBB4B and P300 expression in NSCLC tissues and cells was monitored by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. TUBB4B function on NSCLC cell migration, invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) was monitored by wound healing assay, Transwell experiment and Western blot. The regulation of P300 on TUBB4B was monitored by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Mechanism of P300 and TUBB4B in regulating NSCLC cell migration and invasion was explored by rescue experiment. A xenograft tumor model was established by using nude mouse. As a result, low TUBB4B expression and high P300 expression was discovered in NSCLC tissues and cells. TUBB4B and P300 expression showed a negative correlation in NSCLC tissues. Lower TUBB4B but higher P300 was observed in tumor tissues of NSCLC patients with metastasis. TUBB4B overexpression suppressed NSCLC cell migration, invasion and EMT. TUBB4B silencing had opposite results. P300 overexpression inhibited TUBB4B expression, and P300 silencing facilitated TUBB4B overexpression in NSCLC cells. TUBB4B overexpression counteracted the promotion of P300 overexpression on NSCLC cell invasion and migration. TUBB4B silencing abrogated the inhibition of P300 knockdown on NSCLC cell invasion and mig...
