Acid sphingomyelinase contributes to evodiamine-induced apoptosis in human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells

Evodiamine-induced apoptosis has been shown to have anticancer activity by eradication of some carcinoma cell lines. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of evodiamine on the viability of human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells and to define the cell death pathway. Flow cytometry detection showed that 1.5?μM evodiamine significantly induced SGC-7901 cell apoptosis in a time-dependent manner. This apoptosis was partially inhibited by the pancaspase inhibitor carbobenzoxy-valyl-alanyl-aspartyl-[O-methyl]-fluoro-methylketone, which suggests that evodiamine-induced apoptosis in SGC-7901 cells is partially caspase independent. Further, the total content of sphingomyelin was decreased and expression of acid sphingomyelinase (aSMase) and neutral SMase genes in the SGC-7901cells was upregulated. Protein expression of aSMase, which was exposed to evodiamine, was shown to be increased by western blot analysis and could have been responsible for inducing caspase-independent apoptosis. Our results indicate that evodiamine stimulates upregulation of aSMase expression and hydrolysis of sphingomyelin into ceramide, which might be one of the mechanisms by which apoptosis occurs in SGC-7901 cells.

MicroRNA-1284 inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in SGC-7901 human gastric cancer cells

Objectives

To explore the functional effects of miR-1284 on gastric cancer cells.

Results

Overexpression of miR-1284 significantly reduced SGC-7901 cell proliferation, but improved apoptosis. However, miR-1284 suppression displayed the inversed impacts. Furthermore, the protein levels of p27, Bax, procaspase-3 and active caspase-3 were up-regulated by miR-1284 overexpression, but were down-regulated by miR-1284 suppression. The level of Bcl-2 was down-regulated by miR-1284 overexpression, while it was up-regulated by miR-1284 suppression. The level of p21 was unaffected.

Conclusion

These results suggest that miR-1284 overexpression might be a suppressor for gastric cancer via controlling of cell proliferation and apoptosis.

     

gamma-Tocotrienol induces mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in human gastric adenocarcinoma SGC-7901 cells

Tocotrienols are naturally occurring isoprenoid compounds highly enriched in palm oil, rice bran, oat, wheat germ, barley and rye. Tocotrienols have antioxidant properties as well as potent anticancer properties. In this study, the mechanisms underlying the apoptosis of gamma-tocotrienol on human gastric adenocarcinoma SGC-7901 cells were further studied, especially in correlation with the involvement of the apoptotic pathway. gamma-Tocotrienol inhibited SGC-7901 cell growth in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. The inhibitory effects of SGC-7901 cells were correlated with the DNA damage and arresting cell cycle at G(0)/G(1) phase in a time-dependent manner at 60 mumol/L concentration of gamma-tocotrienol. gamma-Tocotrienol induced activation of caspase-3 and increased the cleavage of the downstream substrate poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. Furthermore, gamma-tocotrienol-induced apoptosis on SGC-7901 cells was mediated by activation of caspase-9. The data in this study suggested that gamma-tocotrienol could induce the apoptosis on human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells via mitochondria-dependent apoptosis pathway. Thus, our findings revealed gamma-tocotrienol as a potential, new chemopreventive agent for human gastric cancer.

Upregulation of periostin prevents P53-mediated apoptosis in SGC-7901 gastric cancer cells

Periostin is frequently upregulated in human cancers including gastric cancer and implicated in cancer cell proliferation, invasion, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition. This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of periostin overexpression on the chemosensitivity of gastric cancer cells. We constructed a stable cell line overexpressing periostin in SGC-7901 human gastric cancer cells. The 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay revealed that periostin had no influence on the proliferation of SGC-7901 cells. Compared to empty vector-transfected cells, overexpression of periostin rendered SGC-7901 cells more resistant to cisplatin or 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-induced apoptosis, accompanying with less release of cytochrome c from mitochondria and diminished cleavage of caspase-3 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase. Periostin-overexpressing cells treated with cisplatin or 5-FU showed significantly (p < 0.05) decreased expression of Bax and p53 proteins and increased expression of Bcl-2 protein, when compared to drug-treated mock counterparts. Restoration of p53 expression by delivering wild-type p53 gene resulted in a marked increase in drug-induced apoptosis in periostin-overexpressing SGC-7901 cells. Periostin overexpression elevated the phosphorylation of Akt. Pretreatment of periostin-overexpressing cells with an Akt inhibitor, MK-2206, partially rescued periostin-mediated inhibition of p53 expression and drug resistance. Taken together, our data indicate that periostin confers protection against cisplatin or 5-FU-induced apoptosis in SGC-7901 cells, likely through modulating the Akt/p53 pathway, and thus represents a potential therapeutic target in gastric cancer.

Upregulation of the GRIM-19 gene suppresses invasion and metastasis of human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cell line

Gene associated with retinoid-IFN-induced mortality 19 (GRIM-19), as a novel IFN-β/RA-inducible gene product, was identified as a potential tumor suppressor associated with growth inhibition and cell apoptosis. Recently, it has been reported that the apoptotic effects and apoptosis-related gene induction of GRIM-19 can be attenuated by GW112, indicating that GRIM-19 and GW112 are involved in a common signal transduction pathway. To investigate the signaling mechanisms that link GRIM-19 to GW112 and their functional role in tumor cell invasion and metastasis, we utilized adenovirus-mediated overexpression of GRIM-19 in the gastric cancer SGC-7901 cell line. We observed that enhanced expression of GRIM-19 not only downregulated GW112 but also decreased NF-кB binding activity. As a result, we found that tumor cell adhesion, migration, invasion and liver metastasis were inhibited. Additionally, upregulation of GRIM-19 also suppressed secretion of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, 9 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). These results indicate that GRIM-19 acts as an upstream regulator of GW112 to block NF-кB binding activity, thereby inhibiting gastric cancer cell migration, invasion and metastasis. We conclude that adenoviral transfer of the GRIM-19 gene may be an efficacious approach to controlling the invasion and metastasis of human gastric cancer.     

Akt/AMPK/mTOR pathway was involved in the autophagy induced by vitamin E succinate in human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells

Vitamin E succinate (VES), a derivative of vitamin E, is a promising cancer chemopreventive agent that inhibits tumor promotion by inducing apoptotic cell death. The effects of VES on autophagy, an intricate programmed process which helps cells survive in some stressed situations by degrading some cytoplasmic material, are unclear. When human gastric cancer cells SCG-7901 were exposed to VES, both the level of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 and the yeast ATG6 homolog Beclin-1 increased, and related autophagy genes were activated, thereby suggesting that autophagy was induced by VES. We also observed that VES-induced autophagy was accompanied by the activation of AMP-activated protein kinases (AMPK). VES-induced autophagy decreased when AMPK was inhibited by using small interfering RNA (siRNA), thereby suggesting that VES-induced autophagy is mediated by AMPK. Moreover, further studies revealed that the decreased activity of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and its downstream targets P70S6K and 4EBP-1 were involved in VES-activated autophagy associated with AMPK activation. The experiments also showed that the activity of protein kinases B (Akt)-mTOR axis was inhibited by VES. VES-induced AMPK activation could be attenuated by Akt activation. Overall, our studies demonstrated that AMPK was involved in the VES-induced autophagy. Crosstalk exists between AMPK and the Akt/mTOR axis. The results elucidated the mechanism of VES-induced autophagy in human gastric cancer cells.     

Antiproliferative activity of rosamultic acid is associated with induction of apoptosis,cell cycle arrest,inhibition of cell migration and caspase activation in human gastric cancer (SGC-7901) cells

BackgroundGastric cancer is the second leading cause of cancer related deaths after lung cancer globally. Among natural products, natural triterpenes represent a structurally diverse group of organic compounds with potent antitumor activity.PurposeThe objective of the present research work demonstrated the antiproliferative and apoptotic activity of rosamultic acid, a natural triterpenoid, in human gastric cancer (SGC-7901) cells. Its effect on cellular morphology, cell cycle arrest, DNA fragmentation and expression levels of caspase-3, caspase-8 and caspase-9 were also determined.MethodsAntiproliferative activity of rosamultic acid was evaluated by MTT assay. Phase contrast, fluorescence microscopy as well as flow cytometry using Hoechst 33342, acridine orange/ethidium bromide and Annexin V-FITC as cellular probes were used to evaluate the induction of apoptosis by rosamultic acid. Protein level expressions were analyzed by western blot analysis.ResultsThe results revealed that rosamultic acid induced dose-dependent as well as time dependent cytotoxic effects in SGC-7901 gastric cancer cells. It also led to a reduction in clonogenic activity along with inhibiting the cell migration. Characteristic features of apoptosis induced by rosamultic acid were observed and quantified. Cell cycle arrest at sub-G1 phase was induced by rosamultic acid along with downregulation of expression levels of CDK4, CDK6 and cyclin D1. Rosamultic acid also significantly led to the activation of caspase-3, -8 and -9 during the 48 h treatment along with cleaving PARP in a dose-dependent manner. DNA fragmentation following rosamultic acid treatment was also observed in these cells.ConclusionThe current study strongly reveals that rosamultic acid inhibits gastric cancer proliferation by inducing apoptosis mediated through cell cycle arrest, downregulation of cell cycle related protein expressions, inhibition of cell migration, DNA damage, and activation of caspases.

Downregulation of microRNA-92b-3p suppresses proliferation,migration, and invasion of gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells by targeting Homeobox D10

To investigate the effect and mechanism of microRNA-92b-3p (miR-92b-3p) targeting Homeobox D10 (HOXD10) on proliferation, migration, and invasion of gastric cancer, we detected t he expression of miR-92b-3p and HOXD10 in SGC-7901 cells. The effects of miR-92b-3p or HOXD10 on proliferation, migration, invasion, and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2/9 expression in SGC-7901 cells were measured by the Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, Transwell assay, and Western blot, respectively. The results showed that miR-92b-3p expression was increased, and HOXD10 expression was decreased in SGC-7901 cells, compared with human normal gastric epithelial cells GES-1. Functional experiments demonstrated that cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and expression of MMP-2/9 in SGC-7901 cells were significantly inhibited by miR-92b-3p silencing and HOXD10 overexpression. Moreover, HOXD10 was a potential target gene of miR-92b-3p as evidenced by the TargetScan software and double luciferase reporter assay. In the rescue experiment, knockdown of HOXD10, accompanied by higher expression of MMP-2/9, could significantly eliminate the inhibitory effects of miR-92b-3p silencing on cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. In conclusion, miR-92b-3p is highly expressed in gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells, and interfering with its expression might inhibit SGC-7901 cell proliferation, migration, and invasion via downregulating MMP-2/9 expression and targeting HOXD10.     

ERM stable knockdown by siRNA reduced in vitro migration and invasion of human SGC-7901 cells

Three closely related proteins, ezrin, radixin, and moesin (ERM), which primarily act as a linker between the plasma membrane and the cytoskeleton, are involved in many cellular functions, including regulation of actin cytoskeleton, control of cell shape, adhesion and motility, and modulation of signaling pathways. Although, ezrin is now recognized as a key component in tumor metastasis, the functional role of the radixin and moesin in tumor metastasis has not been established. In the present study, we chose highly metastatic human gastric carcinoma SGC-7901 cells, which express all of the ERM proteins as a model to examine the functional roles of these proteins in tumor metastasis. Ezrin, radixin or moesin stable knockdown SGC-7901 cell lines were established using siRNA methodology. In vitro cell migration and invasion studies showed that either ezrin, radixin or moesin specific deficiency in the cells caused the substantial reduction of the cell migration and invasion. Western blotting and immunofluorescence analysis showed that the expression of E-cadherin was also significantly increased when any member of ERM proteins was downregulated. Our results indicated that these three ERM proteins play similar roles in the SGC-7901 cell metastatic potential and their roles of upregulating the expression of E-cadherin may be important in tumor progression.
