Objective: The aim of the present investigation was to study the expression of genes encoding homeobox proteins ZEB2 (zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 2), TGIF1 (TGFB induced factor homeobox 1), SPAG4 (sperm associated antigen 4), LHX1 (LIM homeobox 1), LHX2, LHX6, NKX3-1 (NK3 homeobox 1), and PRRX1 (paired related homeobox 1) in U87 glioma cells in response to glucose deprivation in control glioma cells and cells with knockdown of ERN1 (endoplasmic reticulum to nucleus signaling 1), the major pathway of the endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling, for evaluation of it possible significance in the control of glioma growth through ERN1 signaling and chemoresistance.
Methods: The expression level of homeobox family genes was studied in control (transfected by vector) and ERN1 knockdown U87 glioma cells under glucose deprivation condition by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.
Results: It was shown that the expression level of ZEB2, TGIF1, PRRX1, and LHX6 genes was up-regulated in control glioma cells treated by glucose deprivation.
