摘要: 目的 探讨硫链丝菌肽(TST)对肺癌细胞A549增殖、凋亡及其对AG1478(EGFR-TKI)药物敏感性的影响。方法 CCK8法检测TST、AG1478单药及两药联用后A549细胞的增殖抑制率;Western blot检测TST对叉头转录因子M1(FOXM1)表达的影响;Caspase3比色测定法检测TST对Caspase-3活化程度的影响;利用RNAi技术沉默A549细胞中FOXM1基因,检测FOXM1及增殖凋亡相关分子表达变化。结果 TST增加A549细胞对肺癌靶向药物AG1478的敏感性,其IC50值由(4.35±0.45) μmol/L降至(0.73±0.05) μmol/L(t=11.02,P<0.05);TST抑制FOXM1及下游cMyc、Cyclin B1、Bcl-2分子的表达,上调P21、Cleaved Caspase-3、Cleaved PARP表达的同时,呈时间及剂量依赖性诱导Caspase3分子活化;沉默FOXM1后其下游分子cMyc、Cyclin B1、Bcl-2、P21及Cleaved PARP的表达改变同TST作用后相似,细胞中Cleaved Caspase-3的荧光表达明显增多。结论 TST介导的FOXM1下调可抑制A549细胞增殖,诱导其凋亡,并增加其对AG1478的药物敏感性。

Abstract: ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of thiostrepton (TST) on cell proliferation, apoptosis and the chemosensitivity of nonsmall cell cancer (NSCLC) cell lines A549 to AG1478 (EGFRTKI). MethodsNSCLC cell A549 was treated with TST, AG1478 or the combination of the two drugs. CCK8 cell viability assay was performed to determine the relative growth suppression rate of A549 cell. The expression level of forkhead transcription factors M1 (FOXM1) was studied by western blot. Caspase3 colorimetric assay was employed to evaluate the effect of TST on Caspase3 activity. A siRNA targeting FOXM1 was designed and transfected into A549 cells. RTPCR and western blot were used to examine the expressions of FOXM1 and proliferation and apoptosis related molecules. ResultsTST increased the chemosensitivity of A59 cells to AG1478, a kind of moleculartargeted agent to advanced lung cancer, which made the IC50 value reduce from (4.35±0.45) μmol/L to (0.73±0.05) μmol/L (t=11.02, P<0.05). Besides, TST inhibited the expressions of FOXM1 and its effectors including cMyc, Cyclin B1 and Bcl2, while upregulated P21, Cleaved Caspase3 and Cleaved PARP. Meanwhile, TST improved the activity of Caspase3, which showed time and dosedependent effects. FOXM1 siRNA changes the expression of the downstream effectors such as cMyc, Cyclin B1, Bcl2, P21 and  Cleaved PARP, which was similar to the effect of TST. Also, the fluorescent expression of Cleaved Caspase3 significantly increased in A549 cells. ConclusionTST can significantly inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis by downregulating the expression of FOXM1, and then increase chemosensitivity of A549 cell to AG1478.
