摘要:

文题释义:

细胞凋亡:是细胞的一种基本生物学现象,在多细胞生物去除不需要或异常细胞中起着必要的作用。它在生物体的进化、内环境的稳定以及多个系统的发育中起着重要的作用。细胞凋亡是多基因严格控制的过程,这些基因在种属之间非常保守,如Bcl-2家族、caspase家族等。细胞凋亡不仅是一种特殊的细胞死亡类型,而且具有重要的生物学意义及复杂的分子生物学机制。

半夏提取物是天南星科植物半夏的干燥块茎经过炮制提纯后的产物,提取物中主要药用成分有半夏植物蛋白、半夏生物碱、谷甾醇、多糖等,这些主要的药用成分具有抗肿瘤作用。它们通过诱导细胞凋亡、抑制肿瘤细胞增殖或者调节网状内皮系统的吞噬功能和分泌作用,对白血病、直肠癌和肝癌等肿瘤细胞发挥作用。

背景中药半夏拥有可人工广泛种植、易提纯等优势,其提取物可抑制慢性髓系白血病、急性髓系白血病、急性T淋巴白血病细胞增殖,但是作用机制尚不明确。

目的:探讨中药半夏提取物对3种白血病细胞凋亡的作用机制。

方法:慢性髓系白血病细胞株(K562)、急性髓系白血病M3细胞株(HL-60)、急性T淋巴白血病细胞株(C8166)在半夏提取物5种浓度梯度分别作用244872 h,采用CCK-8法评估3种白血病细胞增殖情况并从中筛选出有明显抑制作用的中(300 mg/L)、高(500 mg/L)质量浓度。然后进一步采用流式细胞术检测3种白血病细胞早期凋亡发生率,采用RT-PCRWestern blot检测BaxBcl-2Caspase-3 mRNA及蛋白水平。

结果与结论:①5种质量浓度的半夏提取物作用3种白血病细胞具有细胞增殖抑制作用,中(300 mg/L)、高 (500 mg/L)质量浓度半夏提取物增殖抑制率较高,与低质量浓度组(100 mg/L)、对照组比较差异有显著性意义(P < 0.01)中、高质量浓度半夏提取物可诱导3种白血病细胞早期凋亡;中、高质量浓度半夏提取物可以下调3种白血病细胞的Bcl-2 mRNA表达,上调BaxCaspase-3 mRNA表达(P < 0.05P < 0.01)中、高质量浓度半夏提取物作用72 h后,K562C8166细胞的Bcl-2蛋白条带明显减弱,而HL-60细胞无减弱变化;BaxCaspase-3蛋白条带明显增强;结果表明,半夏提取物能有效抑制髓系白血病、T淋巴细胞白血病细胞的增殖,促进其凋亡,其作用机制可能与其调节Bax/Bcl-2Caspase-3蛋白表达有关

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Pinellia ternata can be cultivated artificially and is easy to purify. Its extract can inhibit the cell proliferation of chronic myeloid leukemia, acute myelogenous leukemia M3, and T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the mechanism of action of pinellia ternata extract on apoptosis of three kinds of leukemia cells.

METHODS: Chronic myeloid leukemia cell lines (K562), acute myeloid leukemia–M3 cell line (HL-60), acute T lymphocyte leukemia cell line (C8166) were incubated in five kinds of concentration in pinellia ternata extracts in vitro for 24, 48, and 72 hours, respectively. Cell counting kit-8 assay was used to assess the influence of three kinds of leukemia cell proliferation to screen the optimal inhibitory effect of moderate (300 mg/L) and high (500 mg/L) concentration. Flow cytometry was used to determine the incidence of early apoptosis of three kinds of leukemia cells. The mRNA and protein expression levels of Bax, Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 were detected by RT-PCR and western blot assay.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Cell counting kit-8 assay results showed that five different concentrations of pinellia extracts could inhibit the proliferation of three kinds of leukemia cells. The inhibition rates of medium concentration (300 mg/L) and high concentration (500 mg/L) were significantly higher than those of low concentration (100 mg/L) and control group (P < 0.01). Flow cytometry (Annexin PE/7AAD and Annexin V/PI) double staining showed that moderate and high concentrations of pinellia extract could induce early apoptosis of three kinds of leukemia cells. RT-PCR results revealed moderate and high concentrations of pinellia extract could down-regulate the mRNA expression level of Bcl-2, and up-regulate the mRNA expression levels of Bax, Bcl-2 , Caspase-3 (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). Western blot assay results showed that the Bcl-2 protein bands of K562 and C8166 cells were significantly weakened after 72 hours of incubation with moderate and high concentrations of pinellia tubulin extract, while no significant changes were observed in HL-60 cells. Bax and caspase-3 protein bands were significantly enhanced. In summary, pinellia ternata extract can effectively inhibit the proliferation of myeloid leukemia and lymphocytic leukemia cells and promote their apoptosis via regulating Bax/Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 protein expression.
