摘要

Glioma is a common and aggressive primary malignant brain tumor. However, the progression mechanism of glioma has not been well revealed. In this study, we intend to detect the function and related mechanism of STC2 in glioma. Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis database was used to detect STC2 and ITGB2 expression in glioma samples, as well as the relationship between STC2 and other genes. The relationship between STC2 and ITGB2 was confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation assay. The biology function of glioma cells was determined by cell counting kit-8, colony formation, transwell, ELISA and western blot assays. We discovered that STC2 was highly expressed in glioma samples and cell lines. Knocked down of STC2 inhibited cell proliferation, invasion, migration and glycolysis. Further analysis demonstrated the interaction between ITGB2 and STC2 as well as its involvement in STC2-regulated proliferation, invasion, migration and glycolysis. In summary, our data afforded novel insights into understanding the regulatory mechanism of STC2 and suggested that the STC2/ITGB2 axis might be a potential therapeutic target for glioma.
