ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of imatinib mesylate as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor on the biological activity of and Wnt/β-catenin pathway in Hs294T melanoma cells.MethodsAfter Hs294T cells were incubated with imatinib mesylate at various concentrations(4,8,10,16,20 and 24 μmol/L) for 24 hours or imatinib mesylate at 10 μmol/L for 24,48 and 72 hours,methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was performed to estimate the proliferation of cells and to determine the effects of imatinib mesylate on the proliferation of Hs294T cells.Then,Hs294T cells were treated with imatinib mesylate at 10 μmol/L or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) for different durations,followed by the detection of cell apoptosis with flow cytometry,localization of β-catenin with annexin V/propidium iodide-double staining and laser confocal microscopy,quantification of β-catenin and cyclin D1 protein with Western blot,and measurement of LEF1 and C-myc mRNA expression with real time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR.Matrigel invasion assay was performed to evaluate the invasiveness of Hs294T cells after treatment with imatinib mesylate at 5 μmol/L or DMSO for 24 hours.ResultsImatinib mesylate at 4-10 μmol/L elicited a dose-dependent decline in the proliferation of Hs294T cells (F =125.3,P < 0.05),and imatinib mesylate at 10 μmol/L induced a time-dependent decrease from 24 to 72 hours(F =714.6,P < 0.01 ).The percentage of early and late apoptotic cells was markedly increased,while the invasiveness was decreased by about 48%(P < 0.01 ),together with a downregulation in the expression of LEF1,C-myc and Cyclin D1 in imatinib mesylate-treated Hs294T cells compared with the DMSO-treated cells.No obvious changes were observed in the protein expression of β-catenin,but a decline in the nuclear localization of β-catenin was noted in Hs294T cells after being treated with imatinib mesylate.ConclusionImatinib mesylate may suppress the proliferation and invasion of,but promote the apoptosis in,melanoma cells,by downregulating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.
