Effect of dasatinib on biological properties of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

AIM:To explore the effect of dasatinib on the viability, migration, cell cycle and apoptosis of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs), as well as the underlying signal pathway to evaluate the influence of dasatinib on hematopoietic microenvironment clinically.METHODS:The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay.The migration ability was detected by wound healing assay.The cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry.Acridine orange/ethidium bromide staining was also used to detected apoptosis.The secretion of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were measured by ELISA.The protein levels of cleaved caspase-3, protein kinase B (Akt) and phosphorylated Akt were determined by Western blot.RESULTS:Compared with control group, dasatinib at 1~10 nmol/L suppressed the viability and migration ability of hBMSCs, and dasatinib at concentration of 7 nmol/L was adopted in the following assays.Dasatinib promoted apoptosis, and blocked the cell cycle in G1 phase.In addition, the secretion of TGF-β1 and TNF-α was increased markedly.The protein levels of cleaved caspase-3 was increased, but the protein levels of Akt and phosphorylated Akt were decreased.CONCLUSION:Dasatinib inhibits the viability and migration ability of hBMSCs in a dose-dependent manner, promotes the secretion TGF-β1 and TNF-α, and induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.Dasatinib might regulate the biological behaviors of hBMSCs observed above by modulating the expression and phosphorylation of Akt.
