二氢青蒿素对胰腺癌生长的抑制作用

Objective To investigate the anti-tumor activity of dihydroartemisinin in pancreatic cancer in vitro and in vivo. Methods For cultured cells,cell growth was determined by the MTT assay and apoptosis was evaluated by flow cytometry analysis stained with Annexin V-FITG/PI. The protein expression in BxPC-3 cells was analyzed by Western blot assay. BxPC-3 cells were injected subcutaneously into nude mice to establish pancreatic xenograft tumors and the tumor volume was monitored after exposure to dihydroartemisinin. Ki-67 staining and TUNEL assay were used to assess tumor cell proliferation and apoptosis in tumor tissue. Results After treatment by dihydroartemisinin in vitro, the proliferative inhibition rates of pancreatic cancer cells BxPC-3 and AsPC-1 reached up to (76.2 ± 3.5) % and (79.5 ± 2.9) %, and the apoptosis rates were up to (55.5 ± 3.2)% and (40.0 ± 3.5)%, the differences were significantly (P ＜ 0.01) compared with control [(2.0 ± 1.3) % and (0.9 ± 0.4) %]. Dihydroartemisinin inhibited the growth of pancreatic xenograft tumors in nude mice. The proliferation index and apoptusis index were (49.1 ± 3.9)% and (50.2 ± 4.4)% respectively in dihydroarternisinin 50 mg/kg treatment group, compared to those of (72.1 ± 3.3) % and (9.4 ± 2.9) % in control, the differences were significantly (P ＜0.01). Western blot assay indicated that dihydroartemisinin up-regulates expression of proliferation-associated protein p21WAF1 and down-regulates expression of PCNA, increases expression of apoptosis-associated protein Bax and decreases expression of Bcl-2 and activates caspase-9 in BxPC-3 cells. Conclusions Dihydroartemisinin exerts anti-tumor activity in pancreatic cancer both in vitro and in vivo by proliferation inhibition and apoptusis induction. Dihydroartemisinin can be used as a potential anti-tumor drug in pancreatic cancer.

缺氧微环境对胰腺癌细胞发生上皮向间叶转化的诱导作用

Objective To investigate whether hypoxic environment can promote the metastasis of pancreatic cancer cells by inducing epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). Methods The Panc-1 cells were cultured in hypoxia environment. After cultured for indicated periods, the in vitro invasive ability of Pane-1 cells was compared with normoxia group using Transwell invasion assay. The epithelial marker E-cadherin and the mesenchymal marker vimentin were assayed by Western blot. The expression of Snail, a strong activator of EMT, was detected by real-time PCR. The HIF-1 α encoding cDNA was transiently trans-fected into the Pane-1 cells, and the E-cadherin and vimentin were analyzed. Results The number of cells invading to the lower side of the membrane under hypoxia was ( 121±5 ), whereas only ( 84±3 ) in no-morxia group ( P < 0.05 ). The relative expression of E-cadherin in normoxia, hyoxia groups at 12,24,48 hwas (0.59±0.04 vs 54.00±0.05,0.45±0.10,0.36±0.03 ), and that of vimentin was (0.36±0.05, 0.41±0.04,0.48±0.06,0.58±0.05 ) ( P < 0.05 ). The relative expression of Snail mRNA was in-creased in hypoxia environment, and the difference was significant after 72 h ( P < 0.05 ). Before and after HIF-1α cDNA was transfected into the Panc-1 cells, the relative expression of E-cadherin was 0.63± 0.05, and 0.47±0.07, and that of vimentin was 0.47±0.07, and 0.32±0.04 respectively ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion Hypoxia microenvironment can activate HIF-1α and Snail to trigger EMT of pancreatic cancer cells.
