Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of honokiol on proliferation and apoptosis of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells(hADSCs),and to investigate the effect of the drug on the tumor microenvironment.Methods hADSCs were incubated with different concentrations of honokiol,the proliferation of hADSCs was detec-ted by MTS and Trypan blue staining,and cell apoptosis was assessed by annexin V/PI double staining.In the meantime,expression of mRNA and protein related to cell proliferation and apoptosis were detected by qPCR and Western blot,respectively.The expression of total MEK,phosphorylated MEK,total ERK and phosphorylated ERK proteins in the MEK-ERK1/2 signaling pathway were detected by Western blot.Results The effect of honokiol on inhibiting proliferation and promoting apoptosis of hADSCs was significantly enhanced with the increase of concen-tration.The expressions of proliferation-related genes CCND1,MKI67 and PCNA were down-regulated.The expres-sions of pro-apoptotic genes BAX and TP53 was up-regulated,and the expressions of anti-apoptotic gene BCL2 was down-regulated.Honokiol inhibited MEK and ERK1/2 phosphorylation in a concentration-dependent manner.Conclusions Honokiol inhibits proliferation and promotes apoptosis of hADSCs,and the specific mechanism is po-tentially related to the inhibition of MEK-ERK1/2 pathway.
