摘要
目的:探讨凋亡相关基因PUMA在体外水飞蓟宾(silybin,SIL)诱导乳腺癌MCF7细胞凋亡过程中的作用。方法:MCF7细胞分为二组:对照组和SIL组,SIL组处理浓度分别为10、20、40 mg/L,各组细胞分别培养24、48及72 h。MTT法检测SIL对乳腺癌MCF7杀伤率,TUNEL法(DNA断裂的原位末端标记法)测定各组细胞凋亡率,Caspase-Glo⑧3/7定量试剂盒测定细胞Caspase3/7的表达情况,Western blot法检测PUMA蛋白表达水平。结果:上述浓度下的SIL对MCF7细胞增殖均具有抑制作用(P<0.01),其中浓度为40mg/LSIL处理的MCF7细胞在72h时抑制效果最明显,结果呈药物浓度及时间依赖效应;TUNEL法检测显示(48h)SIL可以显著增加MCF7细胞的凋亡率(P<0.01);Caspase3/7检测显示SIL可以使Caspase3/7活性显著升高(P<0.01);Western blot法检测显示SIL可以诱导PUMA蛋白的表达升高。结论:凋亡相关基因PUMA在水飞蓟宾诱导乳腺癌MCF7细胞凋亡过程中具有显著作用,诱导PUMA蛋白表达可能是水飞蓟宾抗癌作用的机制之一。
Objective: To investigate the role of PUMA gene in apoptosis of breast cancer MCF7 cells in vitro induced by silybin (SIL) . Methods: The MCF7 cells were divided into two groups: the control group and the SIL group ( 10, 20, 40 mg/L) , the cells were cultured with SIL for 24, 48 or 72 h. MTT assay was used to detect the survival rate of cells ; TUNEL was used to detect the apoptotic rate of cells ; Caspase - Glo⑧3/7 kits were used to detected the activity of Caspase3/7 ; Western blot method was used to detect the expression of PUMA protein. Results: The MTF assay showed that SIL could inhibited the proliferation of MCF7 cells which depended on dose and time, the effect of 40 mg/L SIL (72 h) was the most obvious; after being treated with SIL (48 h ) , the apoptotic rate of cells and the activity of Caspase3/7 increased significantly ; in addition, PUMA protein increased significantly in SIL -treated group. Conclusion: PUMA may play an important role in the apoptosis of breast cancer MCF7 cells induced by silybin, induced PUMA protein expression may be one of the mech- anisms of anti - cancer effects of silibinin.
