| ICD-0-3 | C22.0 M8170/3 |
| Methods | qPCR, MSP-PCR, Western blot, RIP, Flow cytometry assay, MTT assay etc. |
| Sample | cell lines (HepG2, Huh-7, HEK293) |
| Expression Pattern | down-regulated |
| Function Description | The methylation status of MEG3 promoter may lead to downregulation of MEG3 expression in HepG2 cells. Both adenosine and 5-Aza-CdR increased MEG3 mRNA expression and the CpG island of MEG3 gene in HepG2 cells was typical hypermethylation. Ectopic expression of MEG3 inhibited hepatoma cell growth in a time-dependent manner, resulted in cell cycle arrest and induced apoptosis. Ectopic expression of MEG3 increased p53, caspase-3 mRNA and protein levels, decreased MDM2 and cyclin D1 mRNA and protein levels, as well as ILF3 protein expression in HepG2 cells. |
