AIM: To investigate the mechanism of the radiosensitizing effect of maximum non-cytotoxic doses of tetrandrine (Tet) on nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines CNE1 and CNE2.METHODS: The cells were treated with ma-ximum non-cytotoxic doses of Tet (for CNE1 cells at 1.5 μmol/L and for CNE2 cells at 1.8 μmol/L), irradiation at 4 Gy, or combination of irradiation and maximum non-cytotoxic doses of Tet. The cell cycle distribution was analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of γ-H2AX, cleaved caspase-3, p-CDC25C, CDK1, p-CDK1, cyclin B1, ERK and p-ERK were determined by Western blot.RESULTS: The expression of γ-H2AX was increased in CNE1 cells and CNE2 cells after combined treatment with irradiation and maximum non-cytotoxic doses of Tet. The percentages of CNE1 cells and CNE2 cells at G2/M phase in irradiation group were (18.09±0.42)% and (18.48±1.32)%, respectively, which were decreased to (15.88±1.04)% and (13.80±0.82)% in combined treatment group, respectively (P<0.05). Combined treatment enhanced the increase in the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 caused by irradiation. The protein levels of p-CDC25C and p-CDK1 were increased in a dose-dependent manner by Tet treatment (P<0.05), while the expression of CDK1 showed no difference among different doses of Tet treatments. The protein levels of p-CDC25C, p-CDK1 and CDK1 showed no difference after the treatment with maximum non-cytotoxic doses of Tet. The combined treatment with irradiation and the maximum non-cytotoxic doses of Tet decreased the protein levels of p-CDC25C and p-CDK1 (P<0.05), increased the expression of cyclin B1, and had no influence on the expression of CDK1 (P<0.05). The combined treatment resulted in an increase in the protein level of p-ERK1 (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The maximum non-cytotoxic doses of Tet enhance the DNA damage and apoptosis in CNE1 cells and CNE2 cells caused by irradiation, and the mechanism might be associated with ending of G2/M arrest via activation of ERK/CDC25C/CDK1/cyclin B1 pathways.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the expression and significance of receptor tyrosine kinase anexelekto (Axl) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). METHODS: Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the Axl protein expression of 78 patients with NPC and 32 patients with nasopharyngeal chronic inflammation (NPI). The correlations between the Axl protein levels and the clinical parameters of NPC patients were analyzed. NPC cells were cultured in vitro, and the expression of Axl in well differentiated CNE1 cells, poorly-differentiated CNE2Z cells and undifferentiated C666-1 cells was detected by immunofluorescence staining. After treatment of the CNE1and C666-1 cells with Axl specific inhibitor TP-0903, CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell viability, flow cytometry was adopted to analyze the cell cycle distribution, qPCR was used to examine the mRNA levels of Axl and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), and Western blot was used to examine the protein expression of Axl and p-Axl. RESULTS: Axl protein was localized in the cell membrane and cytoplasm. The rate of high expression of Axl in NPC was significantly higher than that in NPI (P<0.01). High Axl expression showed no correlations with NPC patients' age, gender and M stage, while positively correlated with the clinical stage, T stage and N stage (P<0.05). Axl protein showed a low level in the CNE1 cells, but showed a high level in CNE2Z and C666-1 cells. TP-0903 inhibited cell viability in concentration and time dependent manners. TP-0903 at 2 nmol/L showed significant inhibitory effects, as evidenced by arresting the cell cycle at G0 phase and reducing Axl activity and PCNA expression. CONCLUSION: High expression of Axl promotes the clinical progress of NPC.TP-0903 significantly inhibits the viability of NPC cells, suggesting that Axl may be a valuable target in the NPC treatment.  相似文献

AIM: To observe the effects of the combination of berberin (Ber) and mitomycin C (MMC) on the cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of T24 bladder cancer cells and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS: The T24 cells were exposed to MMC in the presence or absence of difference concentrations of Ber. The viability of the T24 cells was determined by CCK-8 assay. The cell cycle distribution was detected by flow cytometry. The apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry with Annexin V-FITC/PI staining, and the protein expression levels of cyclin D1, survivin, CDK2, CDK4, p21 and p27 were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: CCK-8 experiments showed that Ber enhanced the inhibitory effect of MMC on the viability of T24 cells. The results of flow cytometry showed that Ber also enhanced the blockade effect of MMC on T24 cells in G0/G1 phase (P<0.05). Compared with the MMC group, Ber increased the expression of p21 and p27 up-regulated by MMC, and decreased the expression of cynlin D1, CDK2 and CDK4 (P<0.05). Meanwhile, Ber promoted MMC to inhibit the expression of survivin (P<0.05). Ber increased the apoptosis of T24 cells induced by MMC (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Ber significantly enhances the inhibitory effect of MMC on the viability of T24 cells. The mechanism may be related to up-regulation of p21 and p27, thereby inhibiting the expression of cyclin D1, CDK-2 and CDK-4. At the same time, Ber inhibits the protein expression of survivin, which eventually leads to cell arrest in G0/G1 phase and promotes apoptosis.  相似文献

AIM:To analyze the high expression of special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 1 (SATB1) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and its role in tumor invasion and metastasis. METHODS:The method of immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of SATB1 and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related molecules E-cadherin and vimentin in 76 cases of NPC and 61 cases of nasopharyngeal chronic inflammation (NPI), and the correlations of over-expression of SATB1 with NPC patients' clinical parameters as well as the expression of E-cadherin and vi-mentin were analyzed. Variously differentiated NPC cell lines CNE1, CNE2Z and C666-1 were cultured in vitro, and then SATB1-overexpressing cell line was screened. After interfering with SATB1 expression by siRNA, the expression of EMT-related molecules and the change of cell invasiveness were analyzed. RESULTS:The expression of SATB1 in the nasopharyngeal tissue was dominantly localized in the nuclei. The positive rate of SATB1 in NPC group was significantly higher than that in NPI group (P<0.01). E-cadherin was membrane-positive in NPI epithelial cells, while membrane E-cadherin in NPC was decreased but cytoplasmic expression was increased. The positive expression rate of membrane E-cadherin in NPI was significantly higher than that of NPC (P<0.01). Vimentin was localized in cytoplasm and negative in NPI epithelial cells, but the positive rate in NPC parenchymal cells was significant higher than that in NPI (P<0.01). The high expression of SATB1 in NPC was not related to the patents' sex, age, clinical classification and N classification, but positively correlated with T and M classification (P<0.05). Besides, high expression of SATB1 was positively correlated with vi-mentin in NPC tissues (r=0.358, P=0.009). SATB1 expression in NPC cell lines was negatively correlated with the levels of cell differentiation. Knockdown of SATB1 expression in C666-1 cells with siRNA was accompanied by an increase in E-cadherin and a decrease in vimentin levels, as well as a decrease in cell invasiveness. CONCLUSION:High expression of SATB1 promotes the clinical progress of NPC through EMT mechanism.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the roles of ClC-3 chloride channels in the regulation of cell cycle and the relationship between ClC-3 chloride channels and the cell cycle regulators, such as cyclin D1, cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)4, CDK6, P21 and P27 in the HeLa cells.METHODS: ClC-3 genes were silenced by the siRNA technique in the HeLa cells. The transfection efficiency of ClC-3 siRNA was detected by real-time PCR. The cell cycle distribution was analyzed by the flow cytometry. The protein expression of ClC-3, P21, P27, CDK4, CDK6 and cyclin D1 was determined by Western blot.RESULTS: ClC-3 was knocked down by ClC-3 siRNA in the HeLa cells. Transfection of the cells with ClC-3 siRNA arrested the cells at G0/G1 phases, decreased the expression of cyclin D1, CDK4 and CDK6, and increased the expression of P21 and P27.CONCLUSION: ClC-3 plays an important role in the cell cycle of HeLa cells through the G1-S transition point. ClC-3 may regulate the cell cycle progression by up-regulation of cyclin D1, CDK4 and CDK6 expression and/or by down-regulation of P21 and P27 expression.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of down-regulated miR-9 expression on the proliferation, invasion and migration of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells. METHODS: Human NPC CNE1 and CNE2 cells were transfected with the inhibitor of miR-9 by Lipofectamine to down-regulate the expression of miR-9, and the cells transfected with an inhibitor control were also set up. The cell proliferation and cell cycle were evaluated by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry. The cell invasion and migration abilities were detected by Transwell invasion and wound-healing assays. Immunoblotting was applied to analyze the levels of the proteins. RESULTS: Compared with control group, inhibition of miR-9 expression in the NPC cells by transfection of the miR-9 inhibitor significantly decreased the proliferation ability (P<0.05). The percentages of the cells in G0/G1 phase [CNE2: (57.96±1.39)% vs (47.93±1.76)%, P<0.05; CNE1: (51.24±0.88)% vs (48.29±0.39)%, P<0.05] were significantly increased. The migration distances [CNE2: (186.50±7.94)μm vs (247.56±15.56)μm, P<0.05; CNE1: (139.06±16.73)μm vs (230.66±14.27)μm, P<0.01] and the invasion ability of the CNE2 cells (43.00±3.17 vs 65.80±5.20, P<0.01) were also significantly inhibited. Moreover, the tumor cells transfected with the inhibitors produced lower β-catenin. CONCLUSION: Inhibition of miR-9 expression suppresses the proliferation, invasion and migration of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effect of Epstain-Barr virus latent membrane protein 1 (EBV-LMP1) on proliferation and cell cycle of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells. METHODS:The expression of EBV-LMP1 was detected by immunohistochemical method (LSAB). Proliferation of NPC cells was identified by MTT method. Cell cycle percentage was detected by flow cytometry analysis. RESULTS: OD value of EBV-LMP1 expressive NPC cells L-CEN1 was much higher than that of both EBV-LMP1 negative NPC cells V-CEN1 and CNE1 (P<0.01). Compared with the cell cycle percentage in both V-CNE1 and CNE1, the percentage of G1 was significantly decreased and the percentage of S was much increased in L-CNE1 (P<0.01). But no obvious differences were observed in all cell cycle percentage between V-CNE1 and CNE1 (P>0.05).CONCLUSION:The expression of EBV-LMP1 on NPC cell might cause some change of cell cycle and enhance cell proliferation.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects and mechanisms of microRNA-25(miRNA-25) on the proliferation of human esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma cell line TE1. METHODS: The abundance of miRNA-25 in different tissues was measured by RT-PCR. After silencing or over-expression of miRNA-25 with mimics or inhibitor in TE1 cells, the cell proliferation, cell cycle distribution and the expression of cyclin E1 and cyclin-dependent kinase 2(CDK2) at mRNA and protein levels were measured by CCK-8 assay, BrdU detection, flow cytometry, RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. RESULTS: miRNA-25 was prominent in esophageal mucosal tissue and highly expressed in TE1 cells (P<0.05). Over-expression of miRNA-25 increased TE1 cell proliferation, promoted the cell cycle progression and enhanced the entrance of the cells into S phase (P<0.05). Inverse results were obtained after down-regulation of miRNA-25(P<0.05). Furthermore, the expression of cyclin E1 and CDK2 at mRNA and protein levels was significantly increased after over-expression of miRNA-25, but decreased after down-regulation of miRNA-25(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: miRNA-25 enhances cell cycle transition by increasing the expression of cyclin E1 and CDK2, thus accelerating TE1 cell proliferation. This study provides a novel mechanism by which miRNA-25 increases the proliferation of human esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma cell line TE1, suggesting that down-regulation of miRNA-25 may be a potential new therapeutic strategy for treating esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma.  相似文献

AIM:To observe the expression of calreticulin (CRT) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues, analyze the significance of clinical pathology and the influence on epithelial-mesencymal transition (EMT) of CNE2 cells. METHODS:The expression of calreticulin was detected by immunohistochemistry in 52 nasopharyngeal carcinoma and 57 nasopharyngeal benign tissues, and the significance of clinical pathology was evaluated. The calreticulin gene-specific small interfering RNA was constructed, and then was transfected into the NPC cell line CNE2 using the cationic liposome method. The effect of CRT on the morphological changes of the CNE2 cells was observed under light microscope. The effect of CRT on the cell migration and invasion abilities of the CNE2 cells was detected by Transwell migration and invasion assays. The expression of EMT-related proteins E-cadherin, vimentin, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 in the CNE2 cells was determined by Western blot. RESULTS:The positive expression rate of CRT in the benign lesion tissues was 19.29% (11/57), which was significantly increased in the nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues as 82.69% (43/52). The expression rate of CRT was positively correlated with the stage of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). Knockdown of CRT expression made the CNE2 cells showing a spindle shape to a flat, cobblestone-like epithelial state change, arranged more compact, and the migration and invasion abilities were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Knockdown of CRT expression resulted in significant increase in the protein expression of E-cadhe-rin, and the decreases in the protein expression of vimentin, TGF-β and MMP-9 in the CNE2 cells (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:Calreticulin expression in nasopharyngeal carcinoma is significantly higher and positively correlated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma stage and lymph node metastasis. Calreticulin promotes cell migration and invasion of nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE2 cells by inducing EMT.  相似文献

AIM:To observe the effect of protein kinase C-α(PKCα)antisense oligonucleotide on cell growth, cell cycle and the expression of cyclin E in human poor-differentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) cell line CNE-2Z. METHODS:Antisense PKCα was transfected by cationic liposome(LP) in CNE-2Z cells to analyze the cell growth and cell cycle by MTT colorimetric assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Moreover, the expression of cyclin E was determined by immunocellularchemistry and scanning the result of dot-blotting. RESULTS:①With the concentration of antisense PKCα increasing, the relative cell growth index was decreased gradually(P<0.01). ②After treated with antisense PKCα, the percentage of cells in G1 phase enhanced(P<0.05). ③Compared with the control group, the expressing intensity of cyclin E reduced in antisense PKCα group, and the expression of cyclin E decreased to 66.5%±18.4%(P<0.05) of the control by scanning quantitative analysis. CONCLUSION:These results indicated that antisense PKCα may inhibit cell growth in CNE-2Z via suppressing the expression of cyclin E and hindering cell process in G1 phase.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the mechanism that insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) inhibits proliferation of human breast cancer cell line MCF-7. METHODS: Plasmid pCMV6-IGFBP7 or empty plasmid was transfected into MCF-7 cells. The expression of IGFBP7 in MCF-7 cells after transfection was detected by Western blotting. The effects of IGFBP7 on the colony-forming efficiency and the cell cycle were studied by soft agar colony formation assay and flow cytometry,respectively. The effects of IGFBP7 on the expression of ERK1/2, p-ERK1/2, cyclin D1, CDK4, cyclin E, CDK2, p21CIP1/WAF1, p27KIP1, p53, Rb and p-Rb in MCF-7 cells were detected by Western blotting. RESULTS: Only the transfectant of pCMV6-IGFBP7 expressed IGFBP7. IGFBP7 remarkably reduced colony-forming efficiency (P<0.01) and G0/G1 arrest (P<0.01), inhibited phosphorylation of ERK1/2 (P<0.01), down-regulated cyclin D1 and cyclin E (P<0.01), up-regulated p27KIP1, p21CIP1/WAF1 and p53 (P<0.01), and inhibited phosphorylation of Rb (P<0.01) in MCF-7 cells. PD98059, an inhibitor of MEK1 and MEK2, imitated part of the tumor-suppressing activity of IGFBP7. CONCLUSION: IGFBP7 inhibits the proliferation of human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 by down-regulating cyclin D1 and cyclin E, up-regulating p27KIP1, p21CIP1/WAF1 and p53 and inhibiting phosphorylation of Rb. ERK1/2 signaling pathway might be involved in the regulation of cyclin D1 and p27KIP1 by IGFBP7.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the expression of microRNA (miRNA)-93 in acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and its effect on the proliferation of acute T-cell leukemia Jurkat cells.METHODS: The expression of miRNA-93 in the bone marrow samples of patients with ALL was measured by real-time PCR. After down-regulation of miRNA-93 by transfection with miRNA-93 inhibitor in the Jurkat cells, the cell viability, cell proliferation and cell cycle distribution were detected by CCK-8 assay, EdU assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Furthermore, the protein levels of cell cycle-related molecules such as cyclin D1, cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4), phosphorylation retinoblastoma (Rb) and P27 were measured by Western blot.RESULTS: miRNA-93 was highly expressed in the patients with ALL, and the expression level was highest in the high risk patients. Down-regulation of miRNA-93 inhibited Jurkat cell viability, arrested cell cycle in G1/S transition. In addition, the protein levels of cyclin D1, CDK4 and p-Rb were significantly decreased, the protein expression of P27 was increased in Jurkat cells trasfected with miRNA-93 inhibitor.CONCLUSION: miRNA-93 expression is increased in ALL patients. Down-regulation of miRNA-93 restrains cell proliferation in the acute T cell leukemia cell line Jurkat via regulating cell cycle-related molecules.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the molecular mechanism of hepatitis C virus (HCV) chronic infection by studying the effect of its core protein on cell growth and the expression of cell cycle regulators such as cyclin D1 and pRb/p130 in HepG2 cells. METHODS: A eukaryotic expression vector that carried a gene encoding HCV-core-1b was constructed. The cDNA of HCV core protein was subcloned into pBabe-Flag-puro vector to generate pBabe-Flag-HCV-core-1b. The plasmid was transfected into Pheonix 293T packaging cells to produce retroviruses. The virus-containing supernatant collected from the cell culture was used to infect HepG2 cells and subsequently the cell line that stably expressed the core protein of HCV was obtained.The cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of cyclin D1 and pRb/p130 was examined by Western blotting. RESULTS: The pBabe-Flag-HCV-core-1b vector was confirmed by DNA sequencing. The expression of HCV gene type 1b core protein was verified by Western blotting. The overexpression of HCV gene type 1b core protein impaired the cell cycle progression in G0/G1 phase and significantly reduced the levels of cyclin D1 and pRb/p130 in the cells. CONCLUSION: A eukaryotic expression plasmid that contains the cDNA of HCV core protein is successfully constructed, and a HepG2 cell line which stably expressed the core protein of HCV is also established. HCV gene type 1b core protein inhibits the cell cycle possibly through down-regulation of cyclin D1 and pRb/p130 proteins in the cells.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of decitabine (Dacogen, DAC) on the proliferation and differentiation of K562 cells. METHODS: The K562 cells were treated with different concentrations of DAC. The colony formation ability of the cells was detected by the colony formation assay with semi-solid culture. The cell viability was detected with MTT assay. The morphologic features were observed under inverted microscope with Wright's staining. The changes of the cell cycle distribution and the expression of CD11b and CD42b were analyzed with flow cytometry. The protein expression of CDK2, cyclin E1, P27, GATA-1 and PU.1 in the K562 cells was determined by Western blot. RESULTS: DAC significantly decreased the colony number of the cells and cell viability in a dose-dependent manner. The morphological changes of the cells displayed partial differentiation. After treated the K562 cells with DAC for 72 h, the cell proportion in S phase was obviously decreased, while the cell proportion in G2/M phase was obviously increased in a dose-dependent manner. After treated the K562 cells with DAC for 7 d, the percentage of CD11b and CD14 positive cells was further elevated, and the protein expression of P27, GATA-1 and PU.1 was increased. However, the protein expression of CDK2 and cyclin E1 was decreased. CONCLUSION: DAC inhibits the proliferation and induces differentiation of the K562 cells via regulation of cell cycle.  相似文献
