Abstract
Chloride channel-5 (ClC-5), an important branch of the ClC family, which is involved in the regulation of the proliferation and cell-fate of a variety of cells, including tumor cells. But for now, its function in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) cells remain enigmatic. Here, we discovered that ClC-5 was up-regulated in CCA tissues and CCA cell lines, while ClC-5 silencing inhibited CCA cell proliferation and induced apoptosis. Further mechanism studies revealed that ClC-5 inhibition could inhibit Wnt/モ-catenin signaling activity and further activate mitochondria apoptotic pathway in CCA cells. Furthermore, rescuing Wnt/モ-catenin signaling activation eliminated the anti-tumor function of ClC-5 knockdown. Together, our research findings illustrated that ClC-5 inhibition plays an anti-tumor role in CCA cells via inhibiting the activity of Wnt/モ-catenin pathway, which in turn activates mitochondrial apoptotic pathway.
