Embodiment 1

[0091] Example 1. The high expression of NPC1 in liver cancer is closely related to the occurrence and prognosis of liver cancer

[0092] In order to confirm the high expression of NPC1 in liver cancer, the inventors used the liver cancer tissue chip (95 liver cancer / 85 matching paracancerous) to detect the significantly high expression of NPC1 in HCC ( figure 1 A, B), the overall survival of patients with high expression of NPC1 was significantly lower than that of

[0093] Patients with low expression of NPC1 ( figure 1 C). It is confirmed that NPC1 is closely related to the occurrence and prognosis of liver cancer.

Embodiment 2

[0094] Example 2, NPC1 inhibitors can inhibit the growth of liver cancer cells

[0095] In this example, the inventors studied the role of NPC1 inhibitors in inhibiting the growth of liver cancer cells.

[0096] The results showed that the NPC1 inhibitor U18666A could significantly inhibit the proliferation of liver cancer cells (HepG, MHCC97H, Huh7) ( figure 2 ). It shows that NPC1 can significantly inhibit the proliferation of liver cancer cell lines, suggesting that NPC1 may be used as a target for liver cancer treatment.

Embodiment 3

[0097] Example 3, NPC1 inhibitors can inhibit the growth of cancer cells

[0098] In this example, the inventors investigated the role of NPC1 inhibitors in the growth of common cancer cells.

[0099] The results showed that NPC1 inhibitor U18666A significantly inhibited common cancer cell lines (cervical cancer Hela cell line, colon cancer HCT116 cell line, non-small cell lung cancer A549 cell line, breast cancer MCF7 cell line, esophageal cancer ECA109 cell line and leukemia Jurkat cell line) Proliferation ( image 3 ). It shows that NPC1 can significantly inhibit the proliferation of cancer cell lines, suggesting that NPC1 may be used as a target for cancer therapy.

Abstract

The invention discloses the use of a substance for inhibiting the gene expression and / or protein activity of type C ClassINiemann-Pick protein (NPC1). The use is selected from at least one of the group consisting of (a) a medicament for preventing and / or treating cancer; (b) the medicament for preventing and / or treating cancer diffusion metastasis; (c) the medicament for preparing apoptosis promoting cancer cells; (d) the medicament for preparing cancer-inhibiting cancer cells; (e) the medicament for preparing inhibition of the proliferation of cancer cells in vitro. The present inventors haveproved that Type C Class 1 Niemann-Pick protein (NPC1) is highly expressed in liver cancer tissues, and the abundance is high, and the prognosis of patients with liver cancer is poor. Type C Class-1Niemann Pick protein (NPC1) inhibitor can effectively inhibit the growth of human liver cancer and other tumor cells at the cell level, and can be used as a candidate medicine target for tumor, especially liver cancer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, and relates to a new application of a type C-type 1 Niemann-Pickin (NPC1) inhibitor. Background technique [0002] The liver is the center of cholesterol metabolism in the body and plays a vital role in maintaining the balance of cholesterol metabolism in the body. The liver can produce large amounts of cholesterol through de novo synthesis. Blood cholesterol levels are significantly positively correlated with the incidence of liver cancer. The level of intracellular cholesterol is very important to the life activities such as cell growth, proliferation and differentiation. Clinical studies have shown that serum cholesterol levels in patients with liver cancer are significantly reduced. However, the cholesterol level in liver cancer tissue was significantly higher than that in paracancerous tissue. Niemann-Pickin C-type 1 (NPC1) is a transmembrane glycoprotein containing a sterol-receptive domain i...
