Regorafenib regulates the proliferation and apoptosis of human hepatocellular carcinoma SMMC-7721 cells through miR-122 / 中国肿瘤生物治疗杂志

@#[摘 要] 目的：探究瑞戈非尼（regorafenib，Rego）对人肝癌SMMC-7721细胞增殖、凋亡的影响及其可能的机制。方法：将SMMC-7721细胞分为对照组及Rego组，分别用0、10 μmol/L Rego处理48 h后，流式细胞术检测各组细胞凋亡率，qPCR检测细胞中miR-122的表达。采用脂质体转染的方法将合成的hsa-miR-122-5p模拟物转染SMMC-7721细胞构建miR-122过表达的overExp-miR-122细胞，并将细胞分为对照组、Rego组、overExp-NC组、overExp-NC+Rego组、overExp-miR-122组及overExp-miR-122+Rego组，采用MTT法检测细胞活性，流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡率、WB法检测细胞中Bcl2、cleaved caspase-3、RAS、RAF1、p-ERK1蛋白表达水平。结果：与对照组相比，Rego处理后细胞凋亡率显著升高（P<0.05），且miR-122表达量显著上升（P<0.01）；与overExp-NC组比较，overExp-miR-122组细胞增殖抑制率、凋亡率和cleaved caspase-3表达均显著升高（均P<0.01），RAS蛋白表达显著下降（P<0.05），Bcl2、RAF、p-ERK1蛋白表达均显著下降（均P<0.01）；与overExp-miR-122组相比，overExp-miR-122+Rego组细胞中各检测指标变化进一步显著增加（P<0.01）。结论：Rego可抑制SMMC-7721细胞增殖、促进凋亡，其作用可能与调控miR-122、凋亡相关因子的表达和抑制RAS/RAF/ERK信号通路有关。

Noscapine inhibits migration of colon cancer SW480 cells by down-regulating Wnt3a/β-catenin signaling pathway and cadherin 17 / 中国肿瘤生物治疗杂志

@# Objective: To explore the effects of noscapine (Nos) on the expression of cadherin 17 (CDH17) in colon cancer SW480 cells and the mechanism of Nos on cell migration. Methods: SW480 cells were divided into the control group, empty vector (si-EV) group, CDH17 interference (si-CDH17) group, Nos treatment group, and CDH17 interference+Nos treatment (si-CDH17+Nos) group. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) was used to knockdown CDH17, and the selected concentration of Nos was (55.30±2.21) µg/ml (IC50). The mRNA expression of CDH17 was detected by qPCR; the apoptosis and migration abilities of SW480 cells were observed by Hoechst33258 staining and Transwell assay; the contents of VEGF, MMP2 and MMP9 in SW480 cells were measured by ELISA, and the protein expressions of CDH17, Wnt3a and β-catenin were determined by WB. Results: Compared with the control group, mRNA and protein expressions of CDH17 obviously decreased, cell apoptosis and migration significantly reduced, while the contents of VEGF, MMP2 and MMP9 as well as the protein expressions of Wnt3a and β-catenin significantly decreased in Nos treatment group, siCDH17 group and si-CDH17+Nos treatment group (all P<0.01).The effect of si-CDH17+Nos treatment was more significant than that of si-CDH17 (P<0.01). Conclusion: Nos induces apoptosis and inhibits the migration of human colon cancer SW480 cells, which may be related to the down-regulation of CDH17 expression and inhibition of the Wnt3a/β-catenin signaling pathway.
