Abstract: Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of decorin (DCN) on invasion of colorectal cancer cell HCT116 in vitro. Methods Transwell assay was employed to detect the invasion of HCT116 cells; Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression of CD133 and TIMP-2 mRNA of HCT116 cells; Western blot method was used to detect the expression of HIF-1α, CD133 and TIMP-2 protein of HCT116 cells. Results 1) When the concentrations of DCN is 0,1and3mg/L,under the conditions of normal oxygen and hypoxia, the number of invasive cells wererespectively(241±46),(168±46),(51±17)fields in each well(P<0.01) and(207±61),(213±64),(156±54),(44±17)fields in each well(P<0.01). 2) Under the normoxic conditions, the TIMP-2 mRNA and protein in HCT116 cells were increased by DCN(3mg/L)(P<0.01), but that of CD133 were not affected. 3) DCN(3mg/L) significantly decreased the expression of HIF-1α/CD133/TIMP-2 protein in HCT116 cells under hypoxia(P<0.01), but had no significant effect on the expression of CD133mRNA. Conclusions Under the conditions of hypoxia and normal oxygen,DCN may exert through different mechanisms toinhibit the invasion of colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line HCT116 in vitro.
