MTT assay was performed to detect the effect of gefitinib, NVP-BKM120, NVP-BKM120 plus 1 ~unol/L gefitinib on growth of H1975 cells. The distribution of cell cycle and apoptosis rate of H1975 cells were examined by using flow cytometry. The mRNA expression levels of tumor-related genes such as HIFI-a, VEGF and MMP9 were detected by using real-time quantitative PCR. Western blotting was used to detect the ex- pression level of phosphorylated proteins in the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, such as Ser473-p-AKT, Ser235/236-p-S6 and Thr70-p-4E-BP1, as well as total AKT, $6 and 4E-BP1. The results showed that the NVP-BKM120 could inhibit the growth of H1975 cells in a concentration-dependent manner, and H1975 cells were more sensitive to NVP-BKM120 than gefitinib （IC50：1.385 vs. 15.09 ~mol/L respec- tively）, whereas combination of NVP-BKM120 and gefitinib （1 ~trnol/L） did not show more obvious ef- fect than NVP-BKM120 used alone on inhibition of cell growth （P〉0.05）. NVP-BKM120 （1 ~unol/L） increased the proportion ofH1975 cells in G0~G1 phase and the effect was concentration-dependent, and 2 ~maol/L NVP-BKM120 promoted apoptosis ofH1975 cells. There was no significant difference in the proportion of H1975 cells in G0-G1 phase and apoptosis rate between NVP-BKM120-treated alone group and NVP-BKM120 plus genfitinib （1 ~unol/L）-treated group or between DMSO-treated control group and gefitinib （1 Ixmol/L）-treated alone group （P〉0.05 for all）. It was also found that the mRNA expression levels of these genes were down-regulated by NVP-BKM120 （1 ~unol/L）, and NVP-BKM120 （1 ~tmol/L） or NVP-BKM120 （1 pmol/L） plus gefitinib （1 ~tmol/L） obviously inhibited the activation of Akt, $6 and 4E-BP1 as compared with control group, but single use of gefitinib （1 pmol/L） exerted no significant effect. These data suggested that NVP-BKM120 can overcome gefitinib resistance in H1975 cells, and the combination of NVP-BKM120 and gefitinib did not have additive or synergistic effects. It was also concluded that NVP-BKM120 could overcome the acquired resistance to gefitinib by down-regulating the phosphorylated protein in PI3K/AKT signal pathways in H1975 cells, but it could not enhance the sensitivity of H 1975 cells to gefitinib.展开更多
