    AbstractGRB10 interacting GYF protein 1 (GIGYF1) binds to the N-terminal region of Grb10, regulates multiple signaling pathways. However, it is not clear what happens to cell proliferation, metastasis, apoptosis, and autophagy when the expression level of GIGYF1 gene is reduced. Detection of GIGYF1 expression in clinical tissue specimens and gastric cancer (GC) cell lines by quantitative Real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), GIGYF1 gene was knocked down in MGC-803 cells using small interfering RNA, the effect of GIGYF1 gene on cell metastasis was detected using Transwell assay and wound healing assay, the effect on cell proliferation was detected using plate cloning assay and cck-8 assay, the effect on apoptosis was detected using flow cytometry, autophagosomes were detected using laser confocal microscopy, and the effect on protein expression was detected using immunofluorescence and Western blotting. GIGYF1 gene expression was higher in tumor tissue samples than in paracancer tissue samples, and higher in human GC cell lines than in human normal gastric epithelial cells. GIGYF1 gene knockdown inhibited cell migration, scratch healing ability and EMT process, weakened cell proliferation ability, increased apoptosis rate, promoted the formation of autophagosomes, and changed the corresponding protein expression level. Meanwhile, GIGYF1 knockdowns inhibited the ERK and AKT signaling. In conclusion, the low expression of GIGYF1 gene can inhibit the occurrence and progression of gastric cancer, during which the ERK and AKT signaling pathways are inhibited.© The author(s).
