Abstract: |
Objective The expression of HERG in common bone tumors is scarcely reported and there is a lack
of dedicated studies. This study aimed to investigated the expression of HERG in several common
musculoskeletal tumors.
Methods Immunohistochemical staining, RT-PCR, and Western blotting were used to observe HERG
expression differences in various tissues and cell lines.
Results HERG was differentially expressed in different malignant tumors, both at a differential protein
level and localization within tumors. HERG was not expressed in normal bone tissue. The HERG inhibitor
E-4031 markedly inhibited the proliferation of osteosarcoma cell lines.
Conclusion HERG was highly expressed in malignant tumors. Blocking of HERG can effectively inhibit
the proliferation of bone tumors. |
