The present work focused on investigating the role of the altered expression of complement C1s in proliferation and apoptosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells and explore its biological functions in ESCC, so as to lay a theoretical foundation and provide certain clinical reference for diagnosing and treating ESCC. Complement C1s expression within ESCC was assessed, and its clinical pathological characteristics in ESCC patients were analyzed. Subsequently, in vitro experiments were performed to further explore the mechanisms by which complement C1s affected ESCC. According to the results, complement C1s expression within ESCC markedly increased relative to adjacent non-cancerous samples. High C1s expression showed positive relation to race, residual lesion, and tumor location of ESCC patients. Complement C1s affected ESCC cell proliferation and apoptosis. Notably, C1s knockdown significantly inhibited ESCC cell proliferation and enhanced their apoptosis. C1s suppressed ESCC cell proliferation via Wnt1/β-catenin pathway and promoted their apoptosis through modulating the expression of Bcl2, Bax, and cleaved-caspase3. |
