The apoptotic mechanism dysfunction plays a critical role in cancer cell growth and escaping from cancer therapies; the underlying mechanisms are to be further elucidated. This study aims to investigate the role of phospholipase C epsilon 1 (PLCE1) in modulating the apoptosis mechanism in esophageal cancer (Eca) cells. The results showed that Eca cell lines, OE33 and CP-C cells expressed high levels of PLCE1. Knockdown of PLCE1 markedly increased 9.26 folds of the expression of p53 and 13.8 folds of the frequency of apoptotic CP-C cells via modulating the p53 promoter methylation.
