  • Abstract:Rab1A, a member of the Ras-like protein in rat brain (Rab) family, acts as an oncogene in a variety of malignant tumors. Previous studies reported that Rab1A was highly expressed in GC tissues. However, the function and molecular mechanism of Rab1A in gastric cancer (GC) development remain far from being addressed. Rab1A mRNA and protein levels were detected by qRT-PCR and western blot, respectively. Cell proliferation was evaluated by CCK-8 and BrdU incorporation assays. Apoptosis was estimated by flow cytometry analysis and western blot analysis of B cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), myeloid cell leukemia 1 (Mcl-1), Bcl-2 associated X (Bax), and Bcl-2 homologous antagonist/killer (Bak) expression. Alteration of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)/p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p70S6K) signaling pathway was detected by western blot. We found that Rab1A expression at both mRNA and protein was upregulated in GC cells. Rab1A knockdown significantly inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in GC cells. Rab1A overexpression promoted proliferation, inhibited cisplatin-induced apoptosis, and increased xenograft growth. In addition, we found that Rab1A knockdown suppressed the mTOR/p70S6K pathway in GC cells. Moreover, activation of mTOR/p70S6K pathway by MHY1485 abolished the effects of Rab1A knockdown on cell proliferation and apoptosis. In conclusion, Rab1A knockdown repressed proliferation and promoted apoptosis in GC cells by inhibition of the mTOR/p70S6K pathway.
