Abstract:ObjectiveTo determine whether 7-Difluoromethoxyl-5, 4'-di-n-octyl genistein (DFOG) inhibits invasion and migration capabilities in SKOV3-derived ovarian cancer stem-like cells (OCSLCs) by downregulating the expression of CD44, a cancer stem cell surface marker.MethodsCD44 gene was knocked down using the lentiviral delivery system. OCSLCs cells were treated with DFOG (0.1, 1.0 and 10 μM) or in combination with DFOG (10 μM) and shCD44. The expression levels of CD44 protein in OCSLCs infected with CD44 shRNA and treated with DFOG (0.1, 1.0 and 10.0 µM) were detected using western blot analysis. The cell invasion rates were determined using transwell invasion assay and cell migration rates were determined using Wound-Healing assay.ResultsCD44 knockdown significantly reduced the cell invasion rates and cell migration rates in OCSLCs cells. DFOG downregulated the expression of CD44 as well as attenuated cell invasion and cell migration capabilities in OCSLCs. Moreover, knockdown of CD44 gene collaborated with DFOG to inhibit the ability of cell invasion and cell migration in OCSLCs.ConclusionDFOG inhibits cell invasion and cell migration capabilities by downregulating CD44 expression in OCSLCs .
