Abstract: Objective To collect protein of human TIMP-2 through prokaryotic expression in vitro, and to explore its role in the migration and invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)cell. Methods Total RNA was extracted from human hepatoma cell line SMMC-7721, and TIMP-2 cDNA was obtained with RT-PCR. The prokaryotic expression vector pGEX-TIMP-2 was constructed, and then transformed into Origami(DE3). The expressional product was purified with affinity chromatography and identified with Western blotting. The role of TIMP-2 in migration and invasion of HCC cells were detected with RNAi technology and adding extraneous TIMP-2 protein. The mRNA and protein expressions of endogenous TIMP-2 in HCC cells were detected with real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western blotting after transfection with siTIMP-2. Results Adding of exogenous TIMP-2 suppressed the migration and invasion of HCC; knock-down of TIMP-2 enhanced the migration and invasion of HCC; conditioned medium of hepatic stellate cells promoted the migration and invasion of HCC, which could be inhibited by TIMP-2 protein. Conclusion The level of TIMP-2 protein in the microenvironment is closely related to the migration and invasion of HCC.
