Objective:To investigate the role of CCN1 protein in a proliferation-inducing ligand(APRIL)and B-cell activating factor(BAFF)in esophageal cancer.Methods:CCN1 was overex-pressed in KYSE150 and OE-19 cell lines by plasmid transfection technique.The transfection effect was verified by Western blot,and the expression of APRIL and BAFF was detected.Results:APRIL/BAFF was highly expressed after overexpression of CCN1 in KYSE150 cells(P<0.05),and APRIL/BAFF was lowly expressed after overexpression of CCN1 in OE19 cells(P<0.05).Conclu-sion:CCN1 activates APRIL/BAFF in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma cell line KYSE150 and in-hibits APRIL/BAFF in esophageal adenocarcinoma cell line OE19.
