Abstract: | AIM: To investigate the effect of MK-2206, an inhibitor of protein kinase B(Akt), on the DNA damage of SGC-7901 cells.METHODS: SGC-7901 cells were treated with different concentrations of MK-2206, and phosphorylated histone H2AX(γ-H2AX) foci formation was detected by immunofluorescence staining. Western blot analysis was used to exam the levels of DNA damage-related protein. The expression of LC3-Ⅱ was determined to evaluate the change of autophagy.RESULTS: MK-2206 treatment increased the formation of γ-H2AX foci and histone H2AX phosphorylation in the SGC-7901 cells. The levels of DNA damage response protein were also increased. In addition, MK-2206-treated SGC-7901 cells increased the expression of LC3-II, a hallmark of autophagy. Inhibition of autophagy significantly enhanced MK-2206-mediated histone H2AX phosphorylation.CONCLUSION: MK-2206 induces DNA damage and autophagy in SGC-7901 cells. Blocking autophagy potentiates the response of MK-2206-induced DNA damage. |
