Gene expression analysis of CDH1 and MUC5AC in selected BPIFB1 transfected and untransfected gastric cancer cell lines / Nor Azlin Safina Abdul Aziz

The human Bactericidal/Permeability-Increasing Fold containing family B, member 1 (BPIFB1), or also known as LPLUNC1, C20orf114, is a member of the BPI/LBP/PLUNC protein family. BPIFB1 differential expression patterns have been reported in several cancers such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and o...

To investigate the role of BPIFB1 in GC development and its interactions with CDH1 and MUC5AC, overexpression of the gene was induced in in-vitro using three different GC cell lines; AGS, HGC-27 and MKN-45.

To quantify the expression level of BPIFB1 in each of gastric carcinoma, expression of mRNA level of BPIFB1, CDH1 and MUC5AC were then performed via RT-PCR and quantitative Real-time PCR (qPCR) for the BPIFB1 transfected and non-transfected GC cells followed by statistical analysis. β -ACTIN, a housekeeping gene was always included in both RT-PCR and qPCR reaction.
