mTOR signaling pathway for regulating inhibition of 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 on Hep-2 cells proliferation in laryngeal carcinoma / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the inhibition role of 1 ,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 on laryngeal cancer Hep‐2 cell proliferation and its influence on mTOR signal pathway .Methods Hep‐2 cells were treated with different concentrations of 1 ,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 (10-8 ,10-7 ,10-6mol/L) for 24 ,48 ,72 h respectively .The proliferation situation of Hep‐2 cells was detected by the MTT meth‐od and the inhibition rate was calculated .The effect of 1 ,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 on Hep‐2 cell cycle distribution was analyzed by flow cytometry .The influence of 1 ,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 on mTOR signaling pathway was detected by Western blot .Results Different concentrations of 1 ,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 could inhibit the proliferation of Hep‐2 cells ,changed the cell cycle distribu‐tion and increased the proportion of Hep‐2 cells in G0/G1 phase .The expressions of TSC1 and TSC2 protein after 1 ,25 dihydroxyvi‐tamin D3 intervention were increased compared with the control group (P<0 .01) ,while the Rheb protein expression was signifi‐cantly decreased(P<0 .01)mTOR protein and phosphorylation level were significantly decreased compared with the control group (P<0 .01) ,the decrease of mTOR protein phosphorylation was especially obvious (P<0 .01);4EBP‐1 protein expression was in‐creased compared with the control group (P<0 .01) .Conclusion 1 ,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D3 alters the Hep‐2 cell cycle distribution , affects the protein expression of mTOR signaling pathway ,thus inhibits the cell proliferation .
