Bacterial endotoxin lipopolysaccharides regulate gene expression in human colon cancer cells

Abstract Objective Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a major cell wall component of gram-negative bacteria. Colon bacteria contribute to LPS which promotes colon cancer metastasis. The objective of this study was to survey the effect of LPS on cell viability and gene expression of 55 molecular targets in...

description Abstract Objective Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a major cell wall component of gram-negative bacteria. Colon bacteria contribute to LPS which promotes colon cancer metastasis. The objective of this study was to survey the effect of LPS on cell viability and gene expression of 55 molecular targets in human colon cancer cells. Results LPS did not affect the viability of COLO 225 cells under the culture conditions but affected the expression of a number of genes important in inflammatory responses and cancer development. LPS increased TTP family, GLUT family and DGAT1 mRNA levels but decreased DGAT2a and DGAT2b expression in the human colon cancer cells. LPS also increased COX2, CXCL1, ELK1, ICAM1, TNFSF10 and ZFAND5 but decreased BCL2L1, CYP19A1 and E2F1 mRNA levels in the colon cancer cells. These data suggest that LPS has profound effects on gene expression in human colon cancer cells.
