BackgroundHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) spreads further with continuance and increasing incidence due to its high-grade malignancy and metastasis. More effectual strategies on blocking proliferation and metastasis of cancer cells should be studied in HCC. Dulcitol, a natural product extracted from euonymus alatus, was reported that it could induce apoptosis of C6 glioma cells. However, the underlying mechanism of Dulcitol on HCC remains unclea.PurposeIn this study, we aimed to reveal the effect and potential mechanisms of Dulcitol on hepatocellular carcinoma in vitro and in vivo.Study design and methods The cell proliferation and apoptosis were evaluated by MTT, Ki-67 and Hoechst 33258/PI double staining. The migratory and invasive abilities of HepG2 cells were measured by wound-healing and transwell assays. Pathological changes of tumor tissue were observed by HE staining and IHC methods. The expression levels of protein were detected using Western Blot analysis.ResultsThe results showed that Dulcitol inhibited HepG2 cells proliferation by down-regulating the protein expression of SIRT1, Bcl-2, along with up-regulating p53, acetylated-p53 (K382), cleaved-caspase9, cleaved-caspase3, Bax, and cytochrome c in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, Dulcitol surpressed the migration and invasion of HepG2 cells through decreasing the levels of MMP-2, uPA and MMP-9 and increasing E-cadherin associated with tumor invasion. In vivo, Dulcitol distinctly inhibited the growth of HepG2 cancer xenograft tumors via inhibiting SIRT1/p53 pathway.ConclusionsOur findings suggested that Dulcitol acted as a SIRT1 inhibitor, inducing apoptosis and inhibiting proliferation, migration and invasion of HepG2 cells and its modulatory mechanism seemed to be associated with regulation of MMPs, SIRT1/p53 pathways. 相似文献

Raddeanin A is one of the triterpenoid saponins in herbal medicine Anemone raddeana Regel which was reported to suppress the growth of liver and lung cancer cells. However, little was known about its effect on gastric cancer (GC) cells. This study aimed to investigate its inhibitory effect on three kinds of different differentiation stage GC cells (BGC-823, SGC-7901 and MKN-28) in vitro and the possible mechanisms. Proliferation assay and flow cytometry demonstrated Raddeanin A’s dose-dependent inhibitory effect and determined its induction of cells apoptosis, respectively. Transwell assay, wounding heal assay and cell matrix adhesion assay showed that Raddeanin A significantly inhibited the abilities of the invasion, migration and adhesion of the BGC-823 cells. Moreover, quantitative real time PCR and Western blot analysis found that Raddeanin A increased Bax expression while reduced Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and Survivin expressions and significantly activated caspase-3, caspase-8, caspase-9 and poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP). Besides, Raddeanin A could also up-regulate the expression of reversion inducing cysteine rich protein with Kazal motifs (RECK), E-cadherin (E-cad) and down-regulate the expression of matrix metalloproteinases-2 (MMP-2), MMP-9, MMP-14 and Rhoc. In conclusion, Raddeanin A inhibits proliferation of human GC cells, induces their apoptosis and inhibits the abilities of invasion, migration and adhesion, exhibiting potential to become antitumor drug. 相似文献

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the mostly diagnosed primary bone malignancy. Emerging evidence indicates that the activity of pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) isoform is crucial for the survival of tumor cells. In the present study, the effect of PKM2 knockdown on the proliferation and migration of OS cells were assessed both in vitro and in vivo. Small hairpin RNA (shRNA) technology were employed to suppress the expression of PKM2 in MG-63 and Saos-2 cell lines. In vitro, shRNA-mediated knockdown of PKM2 efficiently inhibited cell proliferation, and induced G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in both cell lines, which was associated with decreased expressions of cyclin D1 and Bcl-2 as well as increased expressions of Bax, cleaved-caspase-3, and cleaved-PARP. The invasion and migration potential of OS cell lines were also inhibited by PKM2 knockdown through the regulating effect of PKM2 on MMP-2 and VEGF signaling. In vivo, knockdown of PKM2 decelerated tumor growth rate and induced structure deterioration in tumor tissues. The current study for the first time showed that the activity of PKM2 was indispensable for the development and metastasis of OS, thereby providing the basic information for the future development of PKM2-based anti-OS therapies. 相似文献

Berberin, extracted from Chinese herbal medicine Coptis chinensis, has been found to have anti-tumor activities. However, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Our current study demonstrated that berberin inhibited the in vitro and in vivo growth, migration/invasion of CRC cells, via attenuating the expression levels of COX-2/PGE2, following by reducing the phosphorylation of JAK2 and STAT3, as well as the MMP-2/-9 expression. We further clarified that an increase of COX-2/PGE2 expression offset the repressive activity of Berberin on JAK2/STAT3 signaling, and a JAK2 inhibitor AZD1480 blocked the effect of COX-2/PGE2 on MMP-2/-9 expression. In summary, Berberin inhibited CRC invasion and metastasis via down-regulation of COX-2/PGE2- JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway. 相似文献

Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the bioactive polyphenol in green tea, has been demonstrated to have various biological activities. Our study aims to investigate the antiproliferation and antimigration effects of EGCG against bladder cancer SW780 cells both in vitro and in vivo. Our results showed that treatment of EGCG resulted in significant inhibition of cell proliferation by induction of apoptosis, without obvious toxicity to normal bladder epithelium SV-HUC-1 cells. EGCG also inhibited SW780 cell migration and invasion at 25–100 μM. Western blot confirmed that EGCG induced apoptosis in SW780 cells by activation of caspases-8, -9 and -3, Bax, Bcl-2 and PARP. Besides, animal study demonstrated that EGCG [100 mg/kg, intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection daily for 3 weeks] decreased the tumor volume significantly in mice bearing SW780 tumors, as well as the tumor weight (decreased by 68.4%). In addition, EGCG down-regulated the expression of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 in both protein and mRNA level in tumor and SW780 cells. When NF-κB was inhibited, EGCG showed no obvious effect in cell proliferation and migration. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that EGCG was effective in inhibition SW780 cell proliferation and migration, and presented first evidence that EGCG inhibited SW780 tumor growth by down-regulation of NF-κB and MMP-9. 相似文献

MicroRNA has been recently recognized as playing a prominent role in tumorigenesis and metastasis. Here, we report that miR-338-3p was epigenetically silenced in gastric cancer, and its down-regulation was significantly correlated with gastric cancer clinicopathological features. Strikingly, restoring miR-338-3p expression in SGC-7901 gastric cancer cells inhibited proliferation, migration, invasion and tumorigenicity in vitro and in vivo, at least partly through inducing apoptosis. Furthermore, we demonstrate the oncogene SSX2IP is a target of miR-338-3p. We propose that miR-338-3p functions as a tumor suppressor in gastric cancer, and the methylation status of its CpG island could serve as a potential diagnostic marker for gastric cancer. 相似文献

Pancreatic cancer is a deadly disease, and therefore effective treatment and/or prevention strategies are urgently needed. The objectives of this study were to examine the molecular mechanisms by which embelin inhibited human pancreatic cancer cell growth in vitro, and xenografts in Balb C nude mice, and pancreatic cancer cell growth isolated from KrasG12D transgenic mice. XTT assays were performed to measure cell viability. AsPC-1 cells were injected subcutaneously into Balb c nude mice and treated with embelin. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were measured by Ki67 and TUNEL staining, respectively. The expression of Akt, and Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) and their target gene products were measured by the immunohistochemistry, and Western blot analysis. The effects of embelin on pancreatic cancer cells isolated from 10-months old KrasG12D mice were also examined. Embelin inhibited cell viability in pancreatic cancer AsPC-1, PANC-1, MIA PaCa-2 and Hs 766T cell lines, and these inhibitory effects were blocked either by constitutively active Akt or Shh protein. Embelin-treated mice showed significant inhibition in tumor growth which was associated with reduced expression of markers of cell proliferation (Ki67, PCNA and Bcl-2) and cell cycle (cyclin D1, CDK2, and CDK6), and induction of apoptosis (activation of caspase-3 and cleavage of PARP, and increased expression of Bax). In addition, embelin inhibited the expression of markers of angiogenesis (COX-2, VEGF, VEGFR, and IL-8), and metastasis (MMP-2 and MMP-9) in tumor tissues. Antitumor activity of embelin was associated with inhibition of Akt and Shh pathways in xenografts, and pancreatic cancer cells isolated from KrasG12D mice. Furthermore, embelin also inhibited epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by up-regulating E-cadherin and inhibiting the expression of Snail, Slug, and ZEB1. These data suggest that embelin can inhibit pancreatic cancer growth, angiogenesis and metastasis by suppressing Akt and Shh pathways, and can be developed for the treatment and/or prevention of pancreatic cancer. 相似文献

Objective
To investigate the effects of CCL21/CCR7 on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of T24 cells and the possible associated mechanisms: expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9, and regulation of BCL-2 and BAX proteins.Methods
T24 cells received corresponding treatments including vehicle control, antibody (20ng/mL CCR7 antibody and 50 ng/ml CCL21), and 50, 100, and 200 ng/ml CCL21. Proliferation was evaluated by MTT assay; cell migration and invasion were assayed using a transwell chamber. Cell apoptosis was induced by Adriamycin (ADM). The rate of cell apoptosis was examined by flow cytometry using annexin V-FITC/PI staining. Western-blot was used to analyze MMP-2 and MMP-9 and BCL-2 and BAX proteins.Results
CCL21 promoted T24 cell proliferation in concentration-dependent manner with that 200 ng/mL induced the largest amount of proliferation. Significant differences of cell migration were found between CCL21treatment groups and the control group in both the migration and invasion studies (P < 0.001 for all). The expressions of MMP-2 and MMP-9 proteins were significantly increased after CCL21 treatment (p < 0.05 for all). Protein expression of Bcl-21 follows an ascending trend while the expression of Bax follows a descending trend as the concentration of CCL21 increases. No difference was found between the control group and antibody group for all assessments.Conclusion
CCL21/CCR7 promoted T24 cell proliferation and enhanced its migration and invasion via the increased expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9. CCL21/CCR7 had antiapoptotic activities on T24 cells via regulation of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins. CCL21/CCR7 may promote bladder cancer development and metastasis. 相似文献9.
Interferon γ (IFN-γ), a multifunctional cytokine, was upregulated in the resected gastric cancer tissue. However, whether IFN-γ is involved in the regulation of gastric cancer has not been well elucidated. Herein, we aimed to investigate the effects and mechanism of IFN-γ on gastric cancer. In this study, we found a vital role of IFN-γ in enhancing proliferation, inhibiting apoptosis, and promoting cell migration and invasion in gastric cancer cells SGC-7901 and MGC-803. Additionally, IFN-γ activated nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway by upregulating the phosphorylation expression of p65 and IκBα, and induced the expression of integrin β3 in vitro. Therefore, to further investigate the relationship between IFN-γ and integrin β3, SGC-7901 cells were transfected with integrin β3 siRNA. And then cells expressed lower cell viability, migration, and invasion rates, while cell apoptosis was significantly enhanced. Meanwhile, expression of integrin β3, MMP-2, MMP-9, and NF-κB, including p65 and IκBα, and the nuclear translocation of NF-κB/p65 were dramatically repressed, whereas IFN-γ significantly improved the effects. Moreover, in vivo, the experiment of xenograft model and pulmonary metastasis model also retarded in integrin β3 siRNA group. And the expression of integrin β3, MMP-2, MMP-9, and NF-κB was repressed. However, the treatment with IFN-γ improved tumor volume, lung/total weight, tumor nodules, and the protein expression described above compared with integrin β3 siRNA group. Overall, the results indicated that IFN-γ induces gastric cancer cell proliferation and metastasis partially through the upregulation of integrin β3-mediated NF-κB signaling. Hence, the inhibition of IFN-γ or integrin β3 may be the key for the treatment of gastric cancer. 相似文献

Metastasis is major cause of malignant cancer-associated mortality. Fucoxanthin has effect on various pharmacological activities including anti-cancer activity. However, the inhibitory effect of fucoxanthin on cancer metastasis remains unclear. Here, we show that fucoxanthin isolated from brown alga Saccharina japonica has anti-metastatic activity. To check anti-metastatic properties of fucoxanthin, in vitro models including assays for invasion, migration, actin fiber organization and cancer cell–endothelial cell interaction were used. Fucoxanthin inhibited the expression and secretion of MMP-9 which plays a critical role in tumor invasion and migration, and also suppressed invasion of highly metastatic B16-F10 melanoma cells as evidenced by transwell invasion assay. In addition, fucoxanthin diminished the expressions of the cell surface glycoprotein CD44 and CXC chemokine receptor-4 (CXCR4) which play roles in migration, invasion and cancer–endothelial cell adhesion. Fucoxanthin markedly suppressed cell migration in wound healing assay and inhibited actin fiber formation. The adhesion of B16-F10 melanoma cells to the endothelial cells was significantly inhibited by fucoxanthin. Moreover, in experimental lung metastasis in vivo assay, fucoxanthin resulted in significant reduction of tumor nodules. Taken together, we demonstrate, for the first time, that fucoxanthin suppresses metastasis of highly metastatic B16-F10 melanoma cells in vitro and in vivo. 相似文献

The cancer/testis antigen lactate dehydrogenase-C4 (LDHC) is a specific isoenzyme of the LDH family that regulates invasion and metastasis in some malignancies; however, little is known regarding its role in progression of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Thus, we investigated LDHC expression by immunohistochemistry, and analyzed its clinical significance in 88 LUAD specimens. The role and molecular mechanisms subserving LDHC in cellular proliferation, migration, and invasion were explored both in vitro and in vivo. As a result, we found that high LDHC expression was significantly correlated with clinicopathological features of aggressive LUAD and a poor prognosis. Overexpression of LDHC induced LUAD cells to produce lactate and ATP, increased their metastatic and invasive potential—, and accelerated xenograft tumor growth. We further demonstrated that overexpression of LDHC affected the expression of cell proliferation-related proteins (cyclin D1 and c-Myc) and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related proteins (MMP-2, MMP-9, E-cadherin, Vimentin, Twist, Slug, and Snail) both in vitro and in vivo. Finally, excessive activation of LDHC enhanced the phosphorylation levels of AKT and GSK-3β, revealing activation of the PI3K/Akt/GSK-3β oncogenic-signaling pathways. Treatment with a PI3K inhibitor reversed the effects of LDHC overexpression by inhibiting cellular proliferation, migration, and invasion, with diminished levels of p-Akt and p-GSK3β. PI3K inhibition also reversed cell proliferation-related and EMT-related proteins in LDHC-overexpressing A549 cells. In conclusion, LDHC promotes proliferation, migration, invasion, and EMT in LUAD cells via activation of the PI3K/Akt/GSK-3β pathway. 相似文献

Cancer cells produce high amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and evade apoptosis. Hydroperoxides support proliferation, invasion, migration and angiogenesis, but at higher levels induce apoptosis, thus being pro- and anti-carcinogenic. Accordingly, glutathione peroxidases (GPxs) regulating hydroperoxide levels might have dual roles too. GPx1, clearly an antioxidant enzyme, is down-regulated in many cancer cells. Its main role would be prevention of cancer initiation by ROS-mediated DNA damage. GPx2 is up-regulated in cancer cells. GPx1/GPx2 double knockout mice develop colitis and intestinal cancer. However, GPx2 knockdown cancer cells grow better in vitro and in vivo probably reflecting the physiological role of GPx2 in intestinal mucosa homeostasis. GPx2 counteracts COX-2 expression and PGE2 production, which explains its potential to inhibit migration and invasion of cultured cancer cells. Overexpression of GPx3 inhibits tumor growth and metastasis. GPx4 is decreased in cancer tissues. GPx4-overexpressing cancer cells have low COX-2 activity and tumors derived therefrom are smaller than from control cells and do not metastasize. Collectively, GPxs prevent cancer initiation by removing hydroperoxides. GPx4 inhibits but GPx2 supports growth of established tumors. Metastasis, but also apoptosis, is inhibited by all GPxs. GPx-mediated regulation of COX/LOX activities may be relevant to early stages of inflammation-mediated carcinogenesis. 相似文献

Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is one of the most common cancers with high metastatic potential, explaining why identifying new drug candidates that inhibit tumour metastasis is an urgent need. The aim of this study was to evaluate the biological activities of pectolinarigenin (PEC, a natural flavonoid present in Cirsium chanroenicum) in CRC in vitro and in vivo and to determine its underlying mechanism of action. Here, we observed that treatment with PEC could inhibit cell viability and induce apoptosis in cancer cells in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. The occurrence of apoptosis was associated with activation of caspase-3 and Bax and decreased expression of Bcl-2. In addition, PEC markedly impaired CRC cell migration and invasion by downregulating the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9) and phosphorylated-Stat3Tyr705. Moreover, our studies showed that PEC inhibited abdominal metastasis models of murine colorectal cancer. In addition, histological and immunohistochemical analyses revealed a decrease in Ki67-positive cells, MMP9-positive cells and p-Stat3Tyr705 cells upon treatment with PEC compared to control samples. Furthermore, PEC reduced the number of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in the blood and tumours, which was accompanied by the increased infiltration of CD8+T cells in the blood. Taken together, our findings suggested that PEC could be used as a natural drug to inhibit CRC metastasis. 相似文献

Metastasis is a crucial impediment to the successful treatment for gastric cancer. SPOCK1 has been demonstrated to facilitate cancer metastasis in certain types of cancers; however, the role of SPOCK1 in the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer remains elusive. SPOCK1 and epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT)‐related biomarkers were detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot in gastric cancer specimens. Other methods including stably transfected against SPOCK1 into gastric cancer cells, Western blot, migration and invasion assays in vitro and metastasis assay in vivo were also performed. The elevated expression of SPOCK1 correlates with EMT‐related markers in human gastric cancer tissue, clinical metastasis and a poor prognosis in patients with gastric cancer. In addition, knockdown of SPOCK1 expression significantly inhibits the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer cells in vitro and in vivo, inversely, SPOCK1 overexpression results in the opposite effect. Interestingly, SPOCK1 expression has no effect on cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo. Regarding the mechanism(s) of SPOCK1‐induced cells invasion and metastasis, we prove that Slug‐induced EMT is involved in SPOCK1‐facilitating gastric cancer cells invasion and metastasis. The elevated SPOCK1 expression is closely correlated with cancer metastasis and patient survival, and SPOCK1 promotes the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer through Slug‐mediated EMT, thereby possibly providing a novel therapeutic target for gastric cancer. 相似文献

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and c-Met have recently attracted a great deal of attention as prognostic indicators of patient outcome, and they are important in the control of tumor growth and invasion. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) has been shown to modulate multiple signal pathways in a manner that controls the unwanted proliferation and invasion of cells, thereby imparting cancer chemopreventive and therapeutic effects. In this study, we investigated the effects of EGCG in inhibiting HGF-induced tumor growth and invasion of oral cancer in vitro and in vivo. We examined the effects of EGCG on HGF-induced cell proliferation, migration, invasion, induction of apoptosis and modulation of HGF/c-Met signaling pathway in the KB oral cancer cell line. We investigated the antitumor effect and inhibition of c-Met expression by EGCG in a syngeneic mouse model (C3H/HeJ mice, SCC VII/SF cell line). HGF promoted cell proliferation, migration, invasion and induction of MMP (matrix metalloproteinase)-2 and MMP-9 in KB cells. EGCG significantly inhibited HGF-induced phosphorylation of Met and cell growth, invasion and expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9. EGCG blocked HGF-induced phosphorylation of c-Met and that of the downstream kinases AKT and ERK, and inhibition of p-AKT and p-ERK by EGCG was associated with marked increases in the phosphorylation of p38, JNK, cleaved caspase-3 and poly-ADP-ribose polymerase. In C3H/HeJ syngeneic mice, as an in vivo model, tumor growth was suppressed and apoptosis was increased by EGCG. Our results suggest that EGCG may be a potential therapeutic agent to inhibit HGF-induced tumor growth and invasion in oral cancer. 相似文献

Dysregulated Notch signaling has a critical role in the tumorigenesis. Jagged1, a Notch ligand, is overexpressed in various human cancers. Recent studies revealed the involvement of Jagged1 in colorectal cancer (CRC) development. These basic studies provide a promising potential for inhibition of the Notch pathway for the treatment of CRC. Herein, we aimed to investigate the consequences of targeting Jagged1 using shRNA on CRC both in vitro and in vivo to test their potential to inhibit this key element for CRC treatment. We found that downregulation of Jagged1 with lentiviral Jagged1-shRNA resulted in decreased colon cancer cell viability in vitro, most likely mediated through reduced cell proliferation. Importantly, Jagged1 knockdown induced G0/G1 phase cell cycle arrest, with reduced Cyclin D1, Cyclin E and c-Myc expression. Silencing of Jagged1 reduced the migration and invasive capacity of the colon cancer cells in vitro. Furthermore, colon cancer cells with knockdown of Jagged1 had much slower growth rate than control cells in a xenograft mouse model in vivo, with a marked downregulation of cell proliferation markers (PCNA, Ki-67, and c-Myc) and metastasis markers (MMP-2 and MMP-9). These findings rationalize a mechanistic approach to CRC treatment based on Jagged1-targeted therapeutic development. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the biological characteristics of the RASAL1 gene in a well-differentiated gastric cancer cell line MKN-28 and a poorly differentiated gastric cancer cell line BGC-823 cells, using RNA interference and gene transfection technology, respectively. MKN-28 cells were transfected with the shRNA of RASAL1 and BGC-823 cells were transfected with the pcDNA 3.1 plasmid vector containing RASAL1. RT-PCR and western blotting were then used to detect the expression of RASAL1 mRNA and protein. The activities of RAS and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 were analyzed by the pull-down method and western blotting. The proliferate capacity, apoptosis rate, invasive and migratory potentials of MKN-28 or BGC-823 cells were also measured by Cell Counting Kit-8 cell proliferation assay, propidium iodide/Annexin V staining coupled with flow cytometry, and transwell chamber assays, respectively. Measurement of RASAL1 mRNA and protein expression in two cells revealed successful transfection of the shRNA of RASAL1 and RASAL1-pcDNA3.1 plasmid into these two cells. Moreover, decreased expression of RASAL1 in MKN-28 cells resulted in increased expression of RAS-GTP and p-ERK1/2. Interestingly, decreased expression of RASAL1 inhibited apoptosis and facilitated cell proliferation, invasion and migration. The increased expression of RASAL1 in BGC-823 cells caused declined expression of RAS-GTP and p-ERK1/2, as well as promoted apoptosis and restrained cell proliferation, invasion and migration. The down-regulation of RASAL1 promoted the proliferation, invasion and migration of gastric cancer MKN-28 cells, and up-regulation of RASAL1 inhibited the proliferation, invasion and migration of BGC-823 gastric cancer cells by regulating the RAS/ERK signaling pathway. Thus, our results suggest that RASAL1 may play an important role as a tumor suppressor gene in gastric cancer. 相似文献
