Abstract

Gastric cancer is a malignant disease of the digestive system with high rates of incidence and mortality. S‑phase kinase‑associated protein 2 (Skp2) is a novel oncogene, which has been identified to be important in tumor progression and metastasis. In order to clarify the role of Skp2 in human gastric cancer, the present study detected the expression of Skp2 in human gastric cancer tissues, and investigated the molecular mechanism of Skp2 in the progression of gastric carcinoma. The results of the initial bioinformatics analysis showed that Skp2 was significantly upregulated in 31 specimens of primary gastric cancer from a UK patient cohort, and in 10 gastric cancer lines of a side population, compared with normal gastric tissues (P<0.01). Specimens from 47 patients with gastric cancer and 19 normal gastric tissue specimens were obtained and analyzed using western blot analysis. The positive rate of expression of Skp2 was 87.2%, indicating that the expression of Skp2 was observed in 41 specimens of the detected gastric cancer samples, whereas the positive rate of the expression of Skp2 was 5.6% in the normal gastric samples (P<0.01). In the human gastric cancer cell lines, the defective regulation of Skp2 or presence of an Skp2 inhibitor inhibited the proliferation of BGC‑823 and MKN‑45 cells. In addition, the Skp2 inhibitor suppressed the proliferation of gastric cancer cells in a time‑ and dose‑dependent manner. Furthermore, transfection with Skp2 short hairpin (sh)RNA or treatment with SKP inhibitor C1 for 48 and 72 h led to the accumulation of p27kip1 in Hela cells. Tumorigenicity experiments involving nude mice showed that interference of the expression of Skp2 inhibited the growth of the human gastric tumor cells in the nude mice, and the tumor weights and volumes in the Skp2 shRNA group were significantly lower, compared with those in the negative control shRNA group (P<0.01) and untreated group (P<0.01). Taken together, these data suggested that Skp2 acted as an oncogene in human gastric cancer, and that Skp2‑mediated p27kip1 degradation contributed to the progression of gastric cancer. Abrogating the effects of Skp2 may effectively inhibit the growth of gastric cancer cells, which may be useful as a novel target in the clinical treatment of gastric cancer.
