Abstract

In a previous study, the suppressor of IKBKE 1 expression level was confirmed to be higher in vincristine (VCR)‑resistant HCT‑8 (HCT‑8/V) colon cancer cells than in non‑VCR‑resistant HCT‑8 cells. In the current study, IKBKE 1 expression in VCR‑resistant colon cancer cells was investigated further. HCT‑8 and HCT‑8/V human colon cancer cells were used, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers were designed to amplify the IKBKE 1 gene. Fluorescence reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR (RT‑qPCR) was performed to detect differences in IKBKE 1 expression between sensitive and drug‑resistant colon cancer cell lines. Western blotting was performed to further observe IKBKE 1 expression. Based on the RT‑qPCR and western blot results, IKBKE 1 expression was observed to be markedly higher in the HCT‑8/V cells, and this difference was significant (P<0.05). Thus, IKBKE 1 expression was identified to be associated with the resistance of colon cancer cells to VCR.
