Western blotting analysis was performed to clarify the expression of IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR). Picropodophyllin (PPP), a specific inhibitor of IGF-IR, LY294002, a specific inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol3 kinase (PI3K), and PD98059, a specific inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein kinase, were added to the media. After 72 h, a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium inner salt (MTS) assay was performed to analyze cell proliferation. A wound assay was performed to analyze cell motility with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining 48 h after addition of each inhibitor. RESULTS: All cell lines clearly expressed not only IGF-IR but also phosphorylated IGF-IR. PPP significantly suppressed proliferation of MIA-Paca2, NOR-P1, PANC-1, PK-45H, PK-1, PK-59 and KP-4 cells to 36.9% ± 2.4% (mean ± SD), 30.9% ± 5.5%, 23.8% ± 3.9%, 37.1% ± 5.3%, 10.4% ± 4.5%, 52.5% ± 4.5% and 22.6% ± 0.4%, at 2 μmol/L, respectively (P < 0.05). LY294002 significantly suppressed proliferation of MIA-Paca2, NOR-P1, PANC-1, PK-45H, PK-1, PK-59 and KP-4 cells to 44.4% ± 7.6%, 32.9% ± 8.2%, 53.9% ± 8.0%, 52.8% ± 4.0%, 32.3% ± 4.2%, 51.8% ± 4.5%, and 30.6% ± 9.4%, at 50 μmol/L, respectively (P < 0.05). PD98059 did not significantly suppress cell proliferation. PPP at 2 μmol/L suppressed motility of MIA-Paca2, NOR-P1, PANC-1, PK-45H, PK-1, PK-59 and KP-4 cells to 3.0% ± 0.2%, 0%, 0%, 2.0% ± 0.1%, 5.0% ± 0.2%, 3.0% ± 0.1%, and 5.0% ± 0.2%, respectively (P < 0.05). LY294002 at 50 μmol/L suppressed motility of MIA-Paca2, NOR-P1, PANC-1, PK-45H, PK-1, PK-59 and KP-4 to 3.0% ± 0.2%, 0%, 3.0% ± 0.2%, 0%, 0%, 0% and 3% ± 0.1%, respectively (P < 0.05). PD980509 at 20 μmol/L did not suppress motility. Cells were observed by microscopy to analyze the morphological changes induced by the inhibitors. Cells in medium treated with 2 μmol/L PPP or 50 μmol/L LY294002 had pyknotic nuclei, whereas those in medium with 20 μmol/L PD98059 did not show apoptosis.CONCLUSION: IGF-IR and PI3K are good candidates for molecular therapy of pancreatic cancer.展开更多

Insulin receptor isoform A (IR-A) is more frequently expressed in endombtrial carcinoma than in normal endometrial tissues. To better understand their roles in endometrial carcinoma, we investigated the effects of insulin, IGF-I, and IGF-II in endometrial carcinomas cells with different IR-A expression levels. Methods To explore the role of IR-A in mediating the activity of IGF-I, IGF-II, and insulin, we investigate the cellular proliferation of endometrial carcinoma cell lines RL95-2 and RL95-2-1R-A by MTS assays. Then we examined the protein kinase Akt phosphorylation and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 phosphorylation in both cell lines by Western blotting. The effect of IGF-II and AG1024 on cell cycle progression and apoptosis was assessed by fiowcytometry. To examine whether the effects of IGFs were mediated by IR-A, we blocked IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR) in both cell lines using AG1024, an IGF-IR-specific inhibitor. Results IGF-I and IGF-II significantly enhanced proliferation of both cell lines (P 〈0.05). By contrast, insulin significantly increased proliferation of RL95-2-1R-A cells only (P 〈0.05). IGF-I and IGF-II significantly increased pAkt levels in RL95-2 cells and pERK1/2 levels in RL95-2-1R-A cells (all, P 〈0.05). Insulin increased pERK1/2 levels in RL95-2-1R-A cells only (P 〈0.05). LY294002 and PD98059 inhibited the specific signaling activities and cellular proliferation. After AG1024 pretreatment, neither IGF-I nor IGF-II affected pAkt levels in RL95-2 cells. IGF-II, but not IGF-I, increased pERK1/2 levels in RL95-2-1R-A cells. After AG1024 pretreatment, the proliferation rate and DNA content corresponding to the S phase increased and apoptosis decreased significantly in IGF-II-treated RL95-2-1R-A cells only (P 〈0.05). Conclusions The proliferation effect of insulin is mediated by IR-A. When IR-A dominates in a cell line, IGF-II activated cell proliferation mainly through the ERKI/2 pathway. On the other hand, IGF-II activated cell proliferation mainly through the Akt pathway. IR-A can at least partly mediate the proliferative and anti-apoptotic effects of IGF-II through the ERKI/2 pathway.展开更多
