RESUMO
@#Objective To investigate the expression of C-C chemokine ligand 5(CCL5) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC),and explore the effect of CCL5 on the biological characteristics of laryngeal carcinoma cells.Methods Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis(GEPIA) database was used to investigate the expression of CCL5 in HNSCC.The laryngeal carcinoma cells TU177 were transfected with siRNA(siRNA group),and the control(NC) group was set up.The cell proliferation,migration,cycle and apoptosis of each group were detected by CCK8 assay,cell scratch test and flow cytometry respectively.RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the knock-down efficiency of CCL5 and the mRNA transcription and protein expression of multidrug resistance protein 2(MRP2) and bcl-2-associated x protein(Bax).Results The expression of CCL5 in HNSCC was higher than that in normal tissues(P <0.05).Compared with NC group,siRNA showed higher knock-down efficiency(t=12.898 and 22.656 respectively,each P <0.01);siRNA interference with CCL5 inhibited the proliferation and migration of laryngeal carcinoma cells,and promoted the late apoptosis of laryngeal carcinoma cells and the expression of apoptosis protein Bax(t=2.600～11.667,each P <0.05).Conclusion CCL5 was highly expressed in HNSCC,while siRNA interference with CCL5 inhibited the proliferation,migration and promoted apoptosis of laryngeal carcinoma cells TU177 by up-regulating the expression of Bax,which laid a foundation of the possibility of CCL5 as a new target for the treatment of laryngeal carcinoma.
RESUMO
Laryngeal cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in the respiratory tumors, and its incidence ranks second highest in the respiratory tumors. Resveratrol (Res) is a kind of polyphenols, which can inhibit nucleotides can inhibit the growth of liver cancer cells, gastric cancer cells, pancreatic cells and other tumor cells by inhibiting ribonucleotide reductase in the cells. Taxol (Tax) is a kind of secondary metabolites of Taxus chinensis, which has anti-tumor activity for breast cancer, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer and other tumors by inhibiting cellular microtubule depolymerization. But at present the effects of resveratrol combined with taxol on human laryngeal carcinoma cell strain Hep-2 and their underlying molecular mechanisms are rarely reported. After human laryngeal cancer cell Hep-2 cells were processed with resveratrol (Res) and taxol (Tax), CCK-8 assay was used to evaluate the effect of these two herbs on the proliferation of cancer cells; AO/PI staining and JC-1 were used to detect Hep-1 cells apoptosis; the expression of Bax, Bcl-2, PARP, TRIB3, and XIAP genes was detected by real time quantitative PCR; the activity of caspase-3 and caspase-8 was determined with quantitative fluorescence method. The experimental results showed that compared with Tax, Res medication alone, joint group significantly enhanced inhibition of Hep-2 cells activity, decreased the dosage of Tax, increased the expression of Bax and PARP, TRIB3, reduced the expression of the Bcl-2 and XIAP, and promoted the activity of caspase-3 and caspase-8. The test results showed that compared with the single medication, combined group could significantly increase the inhibitory effect on Hep-2 cells, significantly reduce Tax dosage, increase expressions of Bax, PARP, TRIB3, reduce expressions of Bcl-2, XIAP, and promote activity of caspase-3, caspase-8. This indicated apoptosis of human laryngeal carcinoma cell strain Hep-2 may be induced with Res, Tax, and the combination of these two herbs by mitochondria pathway. It provides valuable clue for further research on combination of Res and Tax for the treatment of laryngeal cancer, and expanding the combined application of Res and Tax.
