ABSTRACT

DEC1 has been reported to regulate the expression of multiple target genes, participate in cell differentiation, apoptosis, aging and the development and progression of numerous tumors, but the detailed effects and possible mechanisms of DEC1 in ovarian cancer (OC) remain unknown. The present study aimed to investigate the expression and mechanism of function of DEC1 in OC. The present results demonstrated that DEC1 was highly expressed in OC tissues and cell lines using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR, western blotting and immunohistochemistry, and high expression of DEC1 was negatively associated with the prognosis of patients with OC. In addition, knockdown of DEC1 significantly inhibited proliferation in SKOV3 and OVCAR3 cells compared with control. DEC1 knockdown also induced apoptosis and increased the expression of apoptosis-related p roteins in OC cells. The results suggested that knockdown of DEC1 inhibited OC cell migration and invasion via regulation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition-related protein. It was also found that DEC1 knockdown significantly inhibited the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Collectively, the current results indicated that knockdown of DEC1 inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion, and induced apoptosis in OC cells via modulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Thus, DEC1 may participate in malignant progression of OC, and may be a target for treatment and diagnosis of OC.
