晚期糖基化白蛋白通过激活caspase-12途径诱导巨噬细胞凋亡

本文旨在研究晚期糖基化白蛋白(advanced glycated albumin,AGE-alb)对巨噬细胞内质网应激(endoplasmic reticulum stress,ERS)凋亡途径关键分子caspase-12的影响,以阐明AGE-alb对巨噬细胞凋亡的诱导作用及机制。体外培养RAW264.7巨噬细胞,分别给予AGE-alb(2、4和6 g/L)、正常对照白蛋白(control albumin,C-alb,4 g/L)、ERS诱导剂衣霉素(tunicamycin,TM,4 mg/L)处理,或以ERS抑制剂4-苯丁酸(4-phenylbutyric acid,PBA,5 mmol/L)预处理细胞1 h,然后与AGE-alb(4 g/L)共孵育24 h。采用MTT法检测细胞活力,TUNEL法检测细胞凋亡情况,试剂盒测定培养基乳酸脱氢酶(lactate dehydrogenase,LDH)活性,免疫印迹法检测caspase-12表达变化。结果显示:与TM相似,AGE-alb显著诱导RAW264.7巨噬细胞损伤,表现为细胞活力降低,LDH漏出和细胞凋亡率明显增加,且呈浓度依赖性。AGE-alb明显上调caspase-12活性,尤其在4和6 g/L浓度时更为显著(P0.01)。然而,PBA可抑制AGE-alb所致的巨噬细胞活力降低以及LDH漏出和凋亡增加,且减轻AGE-alb诱导的caspase-12活化(P0.05)。上述结果提示,AGE-alb可诱导RAW264.7巨噬细胞凋亡,其机制可能与激活caspase-12介导的ERS凋亡途径有关。     

分枝菌酸诱导巨噬细胞泡沫细胞化对细胞自噬的影响

研究分枝菌酸(mycolic acid,MA)诱导的巨噬细胞泡沫细胞化对巨噬细胞自噬的影响,探讨MA促巨噬细胞泡沫细胞化的机制。构建LC3真核表达质粒(p EGFP-LC3B),转染RAW264.7细胞后获得其稳定转染细胞株(RAW264.7/p EGFP-LC3B);用MA诱导RAW264.7/p EGFP-LC3B获得RAW264.7/p EGFP-LC3B泡沫细胞。实验分为三组:RAW264.7细胞组、RAW264.7/p EGFP-LC3B细胞组及MA诱导的RAW264.7/p EGFP-LC3B泡沫细胞组。通过RT-PCR法检测各组细胞中自噬相关基因Becn1、LC3B的转录水平,Western blot法检测各组细胞自噬标志蛋白LC3B II/I的表达水平。RTPCR检测结果显示,RAW264.7/p EGFP-LC3B泡沫细胞组的Becn1基因及LC3B基因的转录水平明显较其他两组低(P0.05)。Western blot检测结果显示,RAW264.7/p EGFP-LC3B泡沫细胞组LC3B II/I比值明显较其他两组低(P0.05)。由此可见,当巨噬细胞被MA诱导成为泡沫巨噬细胞后,其自噬功能显著降低。该研究证明,MA可能通过抑制巨噬细胞自噬,引起脂代谢失衡,进而发生巨噬细胞泡沫细胞化。

Inhibitory effect of caveolin-1 on endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced apoptosis in macrophages via p38 MAPK pathway

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress occurs in macrophage-rich areas of advanced atherosclerotic lesions and contributes to macrophage apoptosis and subsequent plaque necrosis. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of caveolin-1 (Cav-1) on ER stress-induced apoptosis in cultured macrophages and the underlying mechanisms. RAW264.7 cells were incubated with thapsigargin (TG) to establish ER stress model. And Cav-1 expression was detected by Western blot. After being pretreated with filipin(III), a caveolae inhibitor, RAW264.7 cells were assayed with flow cytometry and confocal laser scanning microscopy to detect cell apoptosis. Moreover, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) expression were detected with Western blot. The results showed that Cav-1 expression was markedly increased at early stage of TG treatment (P < 0.05) and then decreased with prolonged or high dose TG treatments. The increasing of Cav-1 expression induced by TG in RAW264.7 cells was abolished under inhibition of caveolae by filipin(III) (P < 0.05). The effect of TG on apoptosis of RAW264.7 cells was further augmented after pretreatment with filipin(III) (P < 0.05). Western blotting showed that MAPK phosphorylation induced by TG was inhibited by filipin(III) in RAW264.7 cells (P < 0.05), whereas CHOP remained unchanged (P > 0.05). These results suggest that Cav-1 may play a critical role in suppressing ER stress-induced macrophages apoptosis in vitro, and one of the mechanisms may be correlated with the activation of p38 MAPK prosurvival pathway.     

Anti-tumor effect of carrimycin on oral squamous cell carcinoma cells in vitro and in vivo

Purpose: Carrimycin is a newly synthesized macrolide antibiotic with good antibacterial effect. Exploratory experiments found its function in regulating cell physiology, proliferation and immunity, suggesting its potential anti-tumor capacity. The aim of this study is to investigate the anti-tumor effect of carrimycin against human oral squamous cell carcinoma cells in vitro and in vivo.Methods: Human oral squamous cell carcinoma cells (HN30/HN6/Cal27/HB96 cell lines) were treated with gradient concentration of carrimycin. Cell proliferation, colony formation and migration ability were analyzed. Cell cycle and apoptosis were assessed by flow cytometry. The effect of carrimycin on OSCC in vivo was investigated in tumor xenograft models. Immunohistochemistry, western blot assay and TUNEL assays of tissue samples from xenografts were performed. The key proteins in PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and MAPK pathway were examined by western blot.Results: As the concentration of carrimycin increased, the proliferation, colony formation and migration ability of OSCC cells were inhibited. After treating with carrimycin, cell cycle was arrested in G0/G1 phase and cell apoptosis was promoted. The tumor growth of xenografts was significantly suppressed. Furthermore, the expression of p-PI3K, p-AKT, p-mTOR, p-S6K, p-4EBP1, p-ERK and p-p38 were down-regulated in vitro and in vivo.Conclusions: Carrimycin can inhibit the biological activities of OSCC cells in vitro and in vivo, and regulate the PI3K/AKT/mTOR and MAPK pathways.     

Niacin Reverses Migratory Macrophage Foam Cell Arrest Mediated by oxLDL In Vitro

Introduction

Niacin reduces vascular oxidative stress and down regulates inducible nitric oxide synthase, an enzyme mediating proatherosclerotic effects in part by increasing oxidative stress. Here, we evaluate whether Niacin reverses the redox sensitive migratory arrest of macrophages in response to oxidised(ox) LDL uptake.

Material and Methods

Migration of RAW264.7 cells, a murine macrophage cell line and bone marrow derived macrophages from wildtype and iNOS knockout mice was quantified using a modified Boyden chamber. Unstimulated cells or cells preincubated with oxLDL or non-oxidised (n)LDL were treated with Nicotinic acid or Nicotinamide. Nitric oxide, peroxynitrite and ROS production were assessed using electron paramagnetic resonance (ESR). Additionally, flow cytometry analysis of apoptosis, fokal adhesion kinase (FAK), phalloidin, CD36, F4/80 macrophage marker and iNOS gene expression (PCR) were assessed.

Results

Migration of Nicotinic acid, Nicotinamide treated cells or unstimulated cells did not differ (P>0.05). oxLDL treatment significantly reduced migration vs. unstimulated cells (p<0.05). In contrast, migratory arrest in response to oxLDL treatment was reversed by co-incubation with Nicotinic acid and Nicotinamide. The oxLDL-induced peroxynitrite formation in RAW264.7 cells was abolished by Niacin and glutathion (GSH) oxidation was significantly reduced. However, nitric oxide (NO)- and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production induced by oxLDL were not affected by Niacin treatment of RAW264.7 cells. In addition, Nicotinic acid and Nicotinamide reduced actin polymerization, a marker for migratory arrest.

Discussion

Our data shows that oxLDL induced inhibition of macrophage migration in vitro can be reversed by Niacin. Furthermore, Niacin reduces peroxynitite formation and improves antioxidant GSH.

摘要 目的：探讨长链非编码RNA（LncRNA）MYU对胶质瘤细胞周期分布、细胞增殖、迁移、侵袭和凋亡的影响,并初步探讨其作用机制。方法：实时荧光定量PCR（RT-qPCR）检测人脑正常胶质细胞HEB和胶质瘤细胞（U-251MG、A172、SHG139）中LncRNA MYU的表达情况。选取SHG139细胞,分为正常对照（NC）组、si-con组、si-LncRNA MYU组进行转染实验,行RT-qPCR检测转染效果。分别采用流式细胞术、细胞计数试剂盒（CCK-8）、Transwell实验检测沉默LncRNA MYU对SHG139细胞周期分布和凋亡、细胞增殖、细胞迁移和侵袭的影响。蛋白免疫印迹（Western blot）法检测基质金属蛋白酶2（MMP-2）、MMP-9、裂解的半胱氨酸天冬氨酸蛋白酶3（Cleaved caspase-3）、Cleaved caspase-9以及磷脂酰肌醇-3-羟激酶/蛋白激酶B（PI3K/Akt）信号通路相关蛋白表达情况。结果：LncRNA MYU在胶质瘤细胞株中比人脑正常胶质细胞中的表达水平显著升高（P＜0.05）,因此选择表达量最高的SHG139细胞进行转染实验。沉默LncRNA MYU能够显著诱导SHG139细胞G0-G1期阻滞、抑制细胞增殖、迁移和侵袭并诱导细胞凋亡（P＜0.05）。沉默LncRNA MYU可显著抑制MMP-2、MMP-9、p-PI3K和p-AKT表达并促进Cleaved caspase-3、Cleaved caspase-9表达（P＜0.05）。结论：沉默LncRNA MYU可诱导胶质瘤细胞G0-G1期阻滞,抑制细胞增殖、迁移和侵袭,促进细胞凋亡,其机制可能与抑制PI3K/AKT信号通路有关。     

Gomisin A ameliorates metastatic melanoma by inhibiting AMPK and ERK/JNK-mediated cell survival and metastatic phenotypes

BackgroundGomisin A (G.A), a lignan compound extracted from the fruits of Schisandra chinensis, is known to exert anti-tumor effects on hepatocarcinoma and colorectal cancer cells. Suppression of proliferation and metastatic abilities of cancer cells are some effective cancer treatment methods.PurposeThe objective of this study is to investigate the effects of G.A on metastatic melanoma, and the mechanism by which it affects metastatic melanoma.Study designThe anti-proliferative and anti-metastatic effects of G.A were observed in in vitro and in vivo.MethodsWST assay and flow cytometry were conducted to investigate the effect of G.A on proliferation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis in metastatic melanoma cell lines. Migration and invasion abilities of G.A-treated melanoma cells were observed by wound healing and invasion assays.ResultsG.A (25–100 μM) decreased the viability of melanoma cells by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. These anti-proliferative effects of G.A were found to be mediated by AMPK, ERK, and JNK activation. G.A (5–20 μM) decreased the migration and invasion of melanoma cells by suppressing epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Consequently, G.A (2–50 mg/kg) inhibited lung metastasis by suppressing EMT and inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in melanoma cells.ConclusionThese results conclude that G.A has the potential to reduce metastatic melanoma through its anti-proliferative and anti-metastatic effects.     

Cancer chemopreventive and anti-inflammatory activities of chemically modified guar gum

Guar gum (G) is a simple characterized branched polysaccharide, which is frequently used in food industries. We prepared the gum C-glycosylated derivative (GG), and its sulphated derivative (SGG), aiming to characterize their cancer chemopreventive, and anti-inflammatory properties. Estimation of cancer chemopreventive activity, specifically anti-initiation, including the modulation of carcinogen metabolism and the antioxidant capacity, revealed that GG was a potent anti-initiator, where it inhibited not only the carcinogen activator enzyme, cytochrome P450 1A (CYP1A), but also induced the carcinogen detoxification enzymes glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs), while SGG inhibited both CYP1A and GSTs. SGG was an effective radical scavenger than GG against hydroxyl, peroxyl, and superoxide anion radicals. GG and SGG were found to modulate the macrophage functions into an anti-inflammatory pattern. Thus, both enhanced the macrophage proliferation and phagocytosis of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-zymosan; however, they also inhibited strongly the nitric oxide generation and tumor necrosis factor-alpha secretion in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW macrophage 264.7. Unexpectedly, both GG and SGG dramatically inhibited the binding affinity of FITC-LPS to RAW 264.7, as indicated by flow cytometry analysis. GG and SGG exhibited a significant anti-proliferative activity against human hepatocellular carcinoma cells (Hep G2), and only SGG was specifically cytotoxic for human breast carcinoma cells (MCF-7), but neither was significantly cytotoxic for human lymphoblastic leukemia cells (1301). SGG led to a major disturbance in cell cycle phases of Hep G2 cells as indicated by concomitant arrest in S- and G2/M-phases, a disturbance that was associated with an induced cell death as a result of necrosis, but not apoptosis in both GG- and SGG-treated cells. Taken together, the modified gums could be used as an alternative of G in health food industries to provide cancer prevention in risk populations.
