HIG1 domain family member 1A disrupts proliferation, migration and invasion of colon adenocarcinoma cells

HIG1 domain family member 1A (Higd-1a) interacts with dynamin-like 120 kDa protein to maintain the morphological and functional integrity of the mitochondria and thus plays an important role in the progression of malignant tumors. Higd-1a promotes the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells and the...

Sumario:HIG1 domain family member 1A (Higd-1a) interacts with dynamin-like 120 kDa protein to maintain the morphological and functional integrity of the mitochondria and thus plays an important role in the progression of malignant tumors. Higd-1a promotes the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells and the growth of pancreatic cancer; however, no similar observations have been reported for colorectal cancer (CRC). This study, therefore, aimed to verify the role of Higd-1a in CRC. We downloaded data from the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEX) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases and identified an association between Higd-1a levels in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) tissues and poor survival using Kaplan–Meier curves. Subsequently, we overexpressed Higd-1a in the human COAD cell line HCT-8, knocked down Higd-1a expression in SW480 cells, and evaluated the effects via quantitative PCR (qPCR) and western blotting. MTT assays, colony formation assay, cell cycle analysis, annexin V-FITC/PI, wound-healing analysis, and transwell assay were used to test cell proliferation, formation of cell colonies, cell cycle progression, migration, invasiveness, and apoptosis. Higd-1a has low transcription levels in COAD tissue and suggests a poor prognosis. Higd-1a overexpression in HCT-8 cells weakened cell proliferation, formation of cell colonies, cell cycle progression, migration ability, and invasiveness, and increased apoptosis. Moreover, the decrease of Higd-1a in SW480 cells induced cell proliferation, formation of cell colonies, cell cycle progression, migration, and invasion, and inhibited apoptosis. Higd-1a is underexpressed in COAD cells and its overexpression impaired the proliferation, migration, and invasiveness of COAD cells.
