(CEACAM1 ) Carcinoembryonic 抗原相关的粘附分子 1 是一种类型属于 CEA 家庭的 1 transmembrane glycoprotein,它当在身体液体的也可溶的形式或房间上的膜界限形式出现,被发现了存在。异常 CEACAM1 表示与肿瘤前进被联系并且在许多人的恶意被发现了。增加的兴趣在乳癌被奉献给 CEACAM1 的表示,但是大多数这些调查结果是矛盾的。这研究的目的是详细地在乳癌调查 CEACAM1 表示。用染色的 immunohistochemical,我们发现那 CEACAM1 表情与 noncancerous 胸纸巾相比在乳癌纸巾被减少或输。另外,可溶的 CEACAM1 在乳癌房间线的文化媒介铺平是比在一个 nontumorigenic 乳房的那些显著地低的上皮的房间线。Immunofluorescence 分析一致地证明乳癌房间线有膜界限 CEACAM1 的相对低的表示。而且, CEACAM1 mRNA 和蛋白质表示层次在分别地用即时反向的 transcriptase 聚合酶链反应和西方的污点分析测量了的乳癌房间线是下面调整的。一起拿,我们的结果在乳癌表明 CEACAM1 的一条系统的下面规定并且建议恢复 CEACAM1 表示的策略可能对乳癌的治疗有用。
Carcinoembryonic antigen-related adhesion mo glycoprotein belonging to the CEA family, which ecule 1 (CEACAM1) is a type 1 transmembrane has been found to exist as either soluble forms in body fluids or membrane-bound forms on the cell surface. Aberrant CEACAM1 expression is associated with tumor progression and has been found in a variety of human malignancies. Increasing interest has been devoted to the expression of CEACAM1 in breast cancer, but most of these findings are contradictory. The aim of this study was to investigate CEACAM 1 expression in breast cancer in greater detail. Using immunohistochemical staining, we found that CEACAM1 expression was reduced or lost in breast cancer tissues compared with noncancerous breast tissues. In addition, soluble CEACAM1 levels in the culture medium of breast cancer cell lines were significantly lower than those in a nontumorigenic breast epithelial cell line. Immunofluorescence analysis consistently showed that breast cancer cell lines have relatively low expression of membrane-bound CEACAMI. Furthermore, CEACAM1 mRNA and protein expression levels were down-regulated in breast cancer cell lines as measured using real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis, respectively. Taken together, our results demonstrate a systematic down-regulation of CEACAM1 in breast cancer and suggest that a strategy to restore CEACAM1 expression may be helpful for the treatment of breast cancer.
