摘要
目的研究低剂量顺铂和低浓度天花粉蛋白(trichosanthin,TCS)联合作用抑制喉癌细胞(Hep.2细胞株和AMC.HN.8细胞株)增殖的作用及其机制。方法设立不同的实验组,包括低浓度顺铂组(3μg/m1)、高浓度顺铂组(10μg/m1)、TCS组(5μg/m1)、TCS和顺铂联合作用组(5μg/mlTCS和3μg/ml顺铂)和阴性对照组;连续5d使用细胞增殖检测法(cellcountingkit-8,CCK-8)和乳酸脱氢酶法检测不同实验组对喉癌细胞的抑制作用和细胞毒性;流式细胞仪和Hochest33258染色观察细胞凋亡;Westernblot检测C—Jun氨基端激酶(JNK),磷酸化JNK、核因子KB(nuclearfactorKB,NF—KB)、p38、磷酸化p38、KB抑制蛋白(inhibitorofKB,I-KB)及磷酸化I—KB的变化。结果与TCS和低剂量顺铂单独作用相比,TCS和顺铂联合作用可明显抑制喉癌细胞的生长(P值均〈0.01),凋亡细胞数量增加;联合作用组的抑制效果与高浓度顺铂组差异无统计学意义,细胞毒性同TCS和顺铂单独作用相比差异无统计学意义(P〉0.05),而毒性低于高浓度顺铂组(P〈0.01);Western blot显示顺铂增强NF.KB转录因子活性,抑制JNK信号通路,TCS组主要激活JNK信号通路而抑制NF—KB,TCS和顺铂联合作用后磷酸化JNK保持高水平抑制NF—KB活性。结论TCS通过激活JNK信号通路,同时抑制NF—KB转录因子活性,增强顺铂诱导喉癌细胞凋亡比例,从而降低其对细胞的毒性并增强其抗肿瘤疗效,为中药天花粉蛋白联合顺铂应用于喉癌临床治疗奠定了实验基础。
Objective To investigate the combined effect of thrichosanthin (TCS) and cisplatin on Hep-2 and AMC-HN-8 cell proliferation. Methods Hep-2 and AMC-HN-8 cells were treated with low (3 I^g/ml) or high (10 i^g/ml) concentration of cisplatin(10 Ixg/ml), TCS(5 ;~g/ml) , or the combination TCS (5 ~g/ml) and cisplatin (3 I^g/ml), the cells no exposure to the drugs as control. Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8. Toxicity of drugs to cells was evaluated by LDH assay. Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis. Western blot was performed to detect the expressions of JNK, phosphor-JNK, p38, phosphor-p38, NF-KB, inhibitor of KB (I-KB), and phospho-I-KB. Results Compared with TCS (5 tzg/ml) or cisplatin (3 [zg/ml) alone, the combination of them had more significant inhibitory effect on the proliferation of Hep-2 and AMC-HN-8 cells (P 〈 O. O1 ), but with no significant increase in cytotoxieity ( P 〉 0.05 ). Western blot showed the expression of p-JNK/SAPK significantly increased in the cells treated with 5 Ixg/ml TCS for 48 hours, while the expression of NF-KB and phospho-I-KB increased in the cells treated with 3 tzg/ml cisplatin. However in the cells treated with 5 txg/ml TCS combined with 3 txg/ml cisplatin, the expression of p-JNK stayed at a high level and the expressions of NF-KB and phospho-l-KB decreased dramatically compared to the cells treated with 3 μg/ml cisplatin alone. Conclusions TCS could enhance cisplatin-induced apoptosis in Hep-2 and AMC-HN-8, at least in part, by inhibiting the NF-KB signaling pathway and activating JNK/SAPK signaling pathway and thus strengthening the antitumor effects of cisplatin, which highlights the possibility of combined application of TCS and cisplatin in the treatment of laryngeal carcinoma.
