Abstract
Objective: To explore the effect of the interaction between B7H3 and fibronectin (FN) on the apoptosis of human chronic myeloid leukemia K562 cells. Methods: The expression of B7H3 molecules in K562 cells was detected using flow cytometry and B7H3 overexpressing cells were constructed. The interaction between B7H3 and FN was detected using the co-immunoprecipitation technology. After adding exogenous FN, cell experiments were performed to detect changes in adhesion and cell apoptosis. The changes in apoptosis-related proteins and PI3K/AKT signaling pathway were detected using Western blot. Results: The expression of B7H3 was low in K562, and the cell line K562 OE (overexpression) -B7H3 and the control cell line K562 NC (negative control) -B7H3 were obtained after lentivirus transfection. There is an interaction between B7H3 and FN (P=0.036) , and this interaction promoted cell adhesion (P<0.05) , inhibited cell apoptosis (P<0.05) , and activated the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway (P<0.05) . Conclusion: B7H3 interacts with FN to promote cell adhesion and may inhibit K562 cell apoptosis by activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.
