How- ever, its effect on autophagy, which is related with the ubiquitin proteasome pathway (UPP), remains unclear. Our study aimed to find out its effect on autophagy and possible molecular mechanisms. The results suggested that YSY-0 l A significantly (P〈0.001) inhibited proliferation of PC-3M cells (IC50 was 287 nM for 48 h) in a concentration-dependent and time-dependent manner. YSY-01A (100 nM, 3 h) also induced autophagy in PC-3M ceils through increasing the expression of P53 (P〈0.001), Beclin-1 (P〈0.001) and LC3 (P〈0.001), and decreasing the expression of p-roTOR (P〈0.001) as compared with the negative control group. Autophagy stayed at a final stage in PC-3M cells after treated with YSY-01A (400 nM) for 12 h. Meanwhile inhibition of autophagy with chloroquine increased the sensitivity to YSY-01A in PC-3M cells. In conclusion, YSY-01A showed high proliferation inhibitory activity of PC-3M cells and it could induce autophagy in PC-3M cells. Inhibiting autophagy increased the cytotoxic activity of YSY-01A in PC-3M cells.展开更多
