Experimental Study on the Suppression of Human Nuclear Receptor hLRH-1 via a Vector-based RNA Interference

To explore the inhibitions of human nuclear receptor hLRH-1 via RNA interference, siRNAs expressing vectors pShLRH-1.1 and pShLRH-1.2, and targeting hLRH-1 were designed and constructed. The recombinants were introduced into hepatocellular carcinoma cells, BEL-7402, mediated by lipofectamin^TM. RT-PCR was carried out to examine the inhibition ratio of hLRH-1 expression. The same method was also applied to analyze the expression of farnesyl pyrophosphate synthetase (FPPS) gene. Our results demonstrated that after transient transfection, both pShLRH-1.1 and pShLRH-1.2 could trigger the efficient inhibition of hLRH-1 in cultured cells, BEL-7402. The inhibition ratios were up to 80%. By comparing with non-transfection and vector-transfection control, the expression of FPPS in cells with inhibition of hLRH-1 was up-regulated significantly. Thus, the inhibition of expression of hLRH-1 in cultured cells was achieved via RNA interference in this study. Our results also suggested that hLRH-1 acts as a negative regulator in FPPS expression.     

Microarray Analysis of Gene-Expression Profile in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cell, BEL-7402, with Stable Suppression of hLRH-1 via a DNA Vector-based RNA Interference

To establish a cell line with a permanent suppression of hLRH-1 in this study, a stable RNAi vector (pSineohLRH-1) targeting hLRH-1 was constructed and introduced into hepatocellular carcinoma cell, BEL-7402. By semiquantitative RT-PCR analysis, the expression of hLRH-1 in BEL-7402 cells carrying pSineohLRH-1 was shown to be significantly suppressed by up to ∼60%. In addition, microarray analysis was carried out to assess the extent of altered gene expression in BEL-7402 cells with stable knockdown of hLRH-1. Direct comparison of gene-expression profiles of more than 18 000 genes showed that 405 of the expressed genes in hLRH-1-knockdown cells differed dramatically in expression levels from those in controls, which suggested the even extensive biological functions of hLRH-1. Interestingly, among those differentially expressed genes, some are cancer-associated such as Gadd45β and PTEN, and their expressions were further validated. Although the identification of the exact relationship between these genes and hLRH-1 awaits intensive investigation, the findings of this study provide new insights into the mechanism by which hLRH-1 is involved in tumorigenesis.     

PER1对人肝癌细胞BEL-7402辐射敏感性的影响

本文通过X射线照射SMMC-7721、BEL-7402和HepG2三种肝癌细胞后,以克隆形成试验检测其存活分数,结果显示在梯度剂量X射线0、2、4、6、8、10 Gy照射下SMMC-7721、BEL-7402、HepG2三种细胞克隆存活分数逐渐下降,其中SMMC-7721在三种肝癌细胞系中对辐射最敏感,BEL-7402辐射抗性在三种肝癌细胞系中最高。Western blot检测发现PER1在SMMC-7721中的表达水平明显显著高于BEL-7402和HepG2(P<0.05)。过表达PER1蛋白以后,BEL-7402接受5 Gy X射线照射后凋亡明显增多,同时,western blot和RT-qPCR试验结果发现,X射线照射过表达PER1的BEL-7402细胞,抗凋亡蛋白Bcl-2表达明显降低,凋亡执行蛋白Caspase-3断裂明显增多。研究结果表明PER1蛋白的高水平表达可以促进X射线诱导的凋亡,增强肝癌细胞的辐射敏感性。

Reversal effect of 2′,4′-dihydroxy-6′-methoxy-3′,5′-dimethylchalcone on multi-drug resistance in resistant human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line BEL-7402/5-FU

Multi drug resistance (MDR) is a major obstacle in the chemotherapeutic treatment of many human cancers. 2′,4′-Dihydroxy-6′-methoxy-3′,5′-dimethylchalcone (DMC), a chalcone, isolated from the buds of Cleistocalyx operculatus, has been shown to have antitumor effects on human carcinoma SMMC-7721 cells in vitro and in vivo. In this paper, we studied the reversal effect and the mechanism of DMC on human hepatocellular carcinoma drug-resistant cells BEL-7402/5-FU in vitro. Administration of DMC reversed the multi-drug resistance of human hepatocellular carcinoma BEL-7402/5-FU cells significantly. DMC enhanced the sensitivity of BEL-7402/5-FU cells to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and doxorubicin (DOX). Staining with Hoechst 33258 and flow cytometric analysis showed that DMC has apoptosis-inducing effect on BEL-7402/5-FU cells. It could also increase the concentration of 5-FU in the resistant multi-drug-resistant cells. We also observed that over-expression of the multi-drug resistance-associated protein (MRP1) and of the glutathione S-transferase π (GST-π) contributed to MDR in BEL-7402/5-FU cells. The mRNA expressions of MRP1 and GST-π and the protein expression of MRP1 were decreased by DMC. These data demonstrated that DMC could effectively reverse MDR in BEL-7402/5-FU cells.     

Synthesis of novel dibenzoxanthene derivatives and observation of apoptosis in human hepatocellular cancer cells

We have synthesized dibenzoxanthene derivatives 2a-2i via nucleophilic substitution of methoxyl group and evaluated underlying antitumor molecular mechanism of target compounds. Compounds showed high cytotoxic activities against BEL-7402, A549, HeLa and MG-63 cancer cells in the µM range. These compounds inhibited the cell growth of BEL-7402 cells at S or G2/M phase. The compounds 2a-2i also induced the apoptosis of BEL-7402 cells. In addition, compounds enhanced the level of intramolecular ROS and decreased the mitochondrial membrane potential. Western blot analysis showed caspase-3 were activated and the expression of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xl was down-regulated. According to given results, these dibenzoxanthenes exhibited a broad spectrum of antiproliferative effects on various tumors and therapeutic efficacy. Molecular mechanism indicated that induction of apoptosis was associated with DNA fragmentation, ROS generation, mitochondria dysfunction. Compounds induced apoptosis in BEL-7402 cells through the intrinsic ROS-mediated mitochondrial pathway.
