AbstractRecurrence and progression are the major problems in the treatment of bladder cancer. Increased expression of Id-1, a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, has recently been shown in several types of advanced cancer. Some studies have provided evidence to suggest that Id-1 can be considered a potential therapeutic target. The objective of this study was to investigate the role of Id-1 in the chemosensitivity of bladder cancer cells, and the effect of Id-1 on chemotherapeutic drug-induced apoptosis in bladder cancer cells. We compared the different sensitivity to epirubicin in RT112 and MGH-U1 cell lines with different Id-1 expression. Then, we transfected different vectors into RT112 and MGH-U1 respectively, and generated the stable Id-1 up-regulation and down-regulation transfectants. The results of cell viability assay showed up-regulation of Id-1 in RT112 leading to increased sensitivity in response to epirubicin, and downregulation of Id-1 increased cellular sensitivity to epirubicin. Furthermore, the analysis of apoptosis related protein revealed that up-regulation of Id-1 suppressed epirubicininduced apoptosis and down-regulation of Id-1 leading to increased epirubicin-induced apoptosis. Wound closure assay showed up-regulation of Id-1 leading to improved migration abilities of bladder cancer cells under chemotherapy. Our results suggest that up-regulation of Id-1 in bladder cancer cells lead to increased cell viability in response to epirubicin by its improved anti-apoptotic role, and down-regulation of Id-1 increases cellular sensitivity to epirubicin by increased anticancer drug-induced apoptosis.
