摘要:
目的 观察没食子酸(GA)对人肝癌HepG2细胞增殖、迁移、侵袭和凋亡的影响,并探讨其作用机制。 方法 用不同浓度GA(0、5、10、20、30、40、50 μg/mL)处理肝癌HepG2细胞24 h和48 h后,CCK-8法检测细胞活性并计算IC50值;实验分为对照组(HepG2细胞)、5 μg/mL GA组、10 μg/mL GA组、20 μg/mL GA组,平板克隆形成实验检测GA对细胞增殖能力的影响,细胞划痕和Transwell小室侵袭实验检测GA对细胞迁移和侵袭能力的影响,流式细胞仪检测GA对细胞凋亡的影响;Western Blot检测基质金属蛋白酶2(MMP-2)、MMP-9和凋亡相关蛋白表达情况。多组间比较采用单因素方差分析,进一步两两比较采用LSD-t检验。 结果 GA作用HepG2细胞24 h和48 h的IC50值为(38.02±2.58)μg/mL和(18.36±1.54)μg/mL。对照组、5 μg/mL GA组、10 μg/mL GA组、20 μg/mL GA组的细胞克隆形成数分别为(239.00±29.45)个、(210.00±19.00)个、(144.33±16.03)个、(57.00±9.55)个,与对照组比较,各实验组细胞克隆形成能力均明显下降(P值均<0.05)。处理24 h后,各组细胞的迁移率分别为42.62%±7.82%、35.34%±6.42%、21.85%±4.42%、12.57%±3.54%,穿膜细胞数目分别为(230.30±15.30)个、(182.12±12.60)个、(137.20±7.50)个、(124.40±6.80)个,与对照组比较,各实验组细胞的相对迁移率和穿膜细胞数均明显下降(P值均<0.05)。处理48 h后,各组细胞凋亡率分别为0.67%±0.08%、13.27%±1.07%、20.94%±2.45%、40.74%±2.63%,与对照组比较,各实验组细胞凋亡率均明显升高(P值均<0.05)。与对照组比较,各实验组细胞MMP-2、MMP-9表达水平均明显降低(P值均<0.05),Bcl-2关联X蛋白(Bax)、裂解的半胱氨酸天冬氨酸蛋白酶3(Cleaved caspase-3)蛋白表达水平均明显升高(P值均<0.05)。 结论 GA可抑制HepG2细胞增殖、迁移和侵袭,促进其凋亡,作用机制可能与调控Bax/Bcl-2以及迁移相关蛋白MMP-2、MMP-9有关。 Abstract:Objective To investigate the effect of gallic acid (GA) on the proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells and its mechanism. Methods HepG2 cells were treated with different concentrations of GA (0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 μg/mL) for 24 and 48 hours, and CCK8 assay was used to measure cell viability and calculate IC50. The experiment was divided into control group (HepG2 cells), 5 μg/mL GA group, 10 μg/mL GA group, and 20 μg/mL GA group. Plate colony formation assay was used to evaluate the effect of GA on cell proliferation; wound healing assay and Transwell chamber assay were used to observe the effect of GA on cell migration and invasion; flow cytometry was used to observe the effect of GA on cell apoptosis; Western blot was used to measure the expression of matrix metallopeptidase-2 (MMP-2), matrix metallopeptidase-9 (MMP-9), and apoptosis-related proteins. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. Results The mean IC50 value of GA on HepG2 cells was 38.02±2.58 μg/mL at 24 hours and 18.36±1.54 μg/mL at 48 hours. The number of cell colonies was 239.00±29.45 in the control group, 210.00±19.00 in the 5 μg/mL GA group, 144.33±16.03 in the 10 μg/mL GA group, and 57.00±9.55 in the 20 μg/mL GA group, suggesting that compared with the control group, each GA group had a significant reduction in cell colony formation ability (all P<0.05). After 24 hours of treatment, the cell migration rate was 42.62%± 7.82% in the control group, 35.34%±6.42% in the 5 μg/mL GA group, 21.85%±4.42% in the 10 μg/mL GA group, and 12.57%± 3.54% in the 20 μg/mL GA group, respectively, in these four groups, and the number of transmembrane cells in these four groups was 230.30±15.30, 182.12±12.60, 137.20±7.50, and 124.40±6.80, respectively, suggesting that compared with the control group, each GA group had significant reductions in migration rate and the number of transmembrane cells (all P<0.05). After 48 hours of treatment, the cell apoptotic rate was 0.67%±0.08% in the control group, 13.27%±1.07% in the 5 μg/mL GA group, 20.94%± 2.45% in the 10 μg/mL GA group, and 40.74%±2.63% in the 20 μg/mL GA group, and compared with the control group, each GA group had a significant increase in cell apoptosis rate (all P<0.05). Compared with the control group, each GA group had significant reductions in the protein expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 (all P<0.05) and significant increases in the protein expression levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 (all P<0.05). Conclusion GA can inhibit the proliferation, migration, and invasion of HepG2 cells and promote the apoptosis of HepG2 cells, possibly by regulating MMP-2, MMP-9, and the apoptosis-related proteins Bax/Bcl-2. -
