METHODS: RGC-5 cells were exposed to IL-8 with or without its specific receptor antagonist G31P for 24h, and the cell viability was assessed by Cell Counting Kit 8(CCK-8). Apoptosis was measured by examining nuclear morphology and quantifying with flow cytometry. Reverse transcription quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(RT-qP CR) and Western blot were used to investigate the expression of apoptosis-related genes. RESULTS: CCK-8 assay showed that IL-8 significantly inhibits the viability of RGC-5 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Cell apoptosis assays exhibited higher apoptotic rate in IL-8 treatment group compared to control group. We further found that IL-8 could promote Bax and caspase-3 expressions, but decrease the level of Bcl-2 in the aspect of m RNA and protein. However, pre-treatment with G31P partly attenuated these effects in RGC-5 cells(P〈0.05).CONCLUSION: These results indicate that anti-proliferation effects of IL-8 through induction of cell apoptosis regulated by Bcl-2, Bax and caspase-3 expressions, can be ameliorated by G31P.展开更多

文摘目的:探讨CXCR1/CXCR2受体拮抗剂-G31P对人前列腺癌细胞PC-3增殖的体内外抑制作用。方法:采用CCK-8法研究不同浓度G31P对PC-3细胞体外增殖的抑制作用。建立体内绿色荧光蛋白(Green fluorescent protein,GFP)标记人雄激素非依赖性前列腺癌细胞PC-3裸鼠原位移植瘤模型,观察G31P对裸鼠前列腺癌原位移植瘤的体积、重量的影响。结果:CCK-8结果显示100 ng/ml G31P与对照组相比分别作用1、3 d和5 d差异具有统计学意义(1 d P=0.007、3 d P=0.001、5 d P=0.028,均为P<0.05)。前列腺癌PC-3细胞裸鼠模型体内实验显示,与对照组(100μl N.S)相比,G31P处理组(0.5 mg/kg)从给药第18天起能显著抑制前列腺肿瘤的体积(P=0.026,P<0.05);与对照组相比G31P处理组在抑制前列腺肿瘤重量方面有明显作用(P=0.027,P<0.05)。结论:G31P体内外实验均能抑制人雄激素非依赖性前列腺癌细胞系PC-3的增殖。
