Background

The globular heads of the human C1q receptor (gC1qR) localize predominantly to the mitochondrial matrix. gC1qR mediates many biological responses, including growth perturbation, morphological abnormalities and the initiation of apoptosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction, p53 status and gC1qR expression and the regulation of apoptosis in human cervical squamous carcinoma cells (C33a and SiHa).

Methods

Here, gC1qR expression was examined in human cervical tissues using real-time PCR and Western blot analysis. Apoptotic death of C33a and SiHa cells was assessed by flow cytometric analysis that detected the subG1 population. Mitochondrial function was assessed via ROS generation, the content of cytosolic Ca2+, and the change in mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm). The viability and migration of C33a and SiHa cells were detected via the water-soluble tetrazolium salt (WST-1) assay and the transwell assay, respectively.

Results

gC1qR expression was decreased in cervical squamous cell carcinoma tissues compared with normal tissues. C33a and SiHa cells transfected with a vector encoding gC1qR displayed mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis, which was abrogated by the addition of a mutant form of p53 or p53 small interference RNA (siRNA). Furthermore, upon overexpression of gC1qR, cell viability and migration were significantly enhanced, and the apoptosis of C33a and SiHa cells were decreased when cells were treated with mutant p53 or p53 siRNA.

Conclusions

These data support a mechanism whereby gC1qR induces apoptosis through the mitochondrial and p53-dependent pathways in cervical squamous cell carcinoma."xsd:string
