This study reveals that high expression of HJURP in ovarian cancer is associated with inhibited cell proliferation and altered cell cycle and mitochondrial content. HJURP is positively correlated with CENP-A and plays a significant role in regulating the growth of ovarian cancer cells through targeting CENP-A.
Objective > High expression of Holliday Junction-Recognizing Protein (HJURP) has been shown to be a marker of poor prognosis in ovarian cancer. The objective of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms of HJURP in ovarian cancer (OC) progression. Procedures > Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) was used to analyze the gene expression profile. Real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression level and correlation of HJURP and centromere protein-A (CENP-A) in OC tissues and cell lines. CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell proliferation. The expression level of apoptosis-related proteins and cell cycle-related proteins were detected by western blotting. Cell cycle and mitochondria! content were determined by flow cytometry. Results > The results showed that HJURP was up-regulated in OC tissues and cell lines, while the cell proliferation was inhibited after transfecting by si-HJURP. Knockdown of HJURP promoted cell apoptosis. Meanwhile, low-expression of HJURP could down-regulate cell replication cycle-related proteins (Cyclin-dependent kinase 2, cyclinD1 and Cyclin-dependent kinase 4) and make cell replication stay in the S phase. Moreover, further studies showed that HJURP was positively correlated with CENP-A in OC tissues. Finally, the rescue experiment further verified that HJURP targeted regulation of CENP-A in OC. Conclusions > The study indicated that HJURP plays a significant role in OC and could target CENP-A to regulate OC cell growth. These findings provide a clue to the diagnosis and treatment of OC.
