Therefore, the present study initially verified that ACAT-1 was overexpressed in Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) tissues compared with non-LLC mice and that this overexpression promoted the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of these LLC samples.
Trans-well migration assay and two different orthotopic PCa animal models were used to investigate the effect of LPS on DU145 and MAT-LyLu cells migration or metastasis in vitro and in vivo, respectively.
Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of acyl coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase1 (ACAT1), and we analyzed the correlation between hyperglycemia and ACAT1, hyperglycemia and metastasis.
