10 Knockdown of transforming growth factor beta regulator 4 (tbrg4) promotes apoptosis in human lung cancer cell line h1299 via regulating ddit3, cav1 and rrm2
Abstract Transforming growth factor beta regulator 4 (TBRG4) gene is located on 7 p14-p13, a region correlated with many cancer types, such as hematologic malignancies, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and multiple myeloma. However, the role of TBRG4 in human lung cancer is largely unknown. Thus, in the present study, the TBRG4 mRNA level was evaluated in the lung cancer cell line H1299 by quantitative PCR (qPCR) after knocking down TBRG4 using lentivirus-mediated small interfering RNA (siRNA). The result showed that TBRG4 was significantly inhibited in H1299 by RNAi. Microarray analysis revealed 586 differentially-e...
