Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of Schisandrin A on the proliferation and apoptosis of prostate cancer cell and its mechanism.Methods:Human prostate cancer DU145 cell were cultured in vitro and grouped into DU145 group (normal culture), Schisandrin A L group (50 μmol/L Schisandrin A was added), Schisandrin A M group (100 μmol/L Schisandrin A was added), Schisandrin A H group (150 μmol/L Schisandrin A was added) and Simvastatin group (50 μmol/L Simvastatin was added). Cell morphology of each group was observed under microscope, cell proliferation ability was detected by CCK8 method, cell migration ability was detected by cell scratch assay, cell invasion ability was detected by Transwell assay, and cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry, the expression of phosphorylation (p) - mammalian STE20-like protein kinase 1 (MST1), MST1, p-large tumor suppressor 1 (LATS1), LATS1, p-Yes associated protein (YAP) and YAP protein were detected by Western blotting. Measurement data were expressed as mean± standard deviation ( ± s), one-way ANOVA for comparisons between multiple groups, and t-test for comparisons between two groups. Results:Compared with DU145 group, the number of cells in Schisandrin A L, M, H groups and Simvastatin group decreased, and the cells gradually shrunk and the spacing became larger, the cell survival rate [(100.00±0.00)%, (88.41±9.36)%, (62.34±7.31)%, (42.57±5.01)%, (45.47±5.65)%], migration [(90.11±13.43)%, (74.16±8.08)%, (57.53±7.34)%, (41.34±6.79)%, (43.44±5.26)%] and invasion [(89.01±10.31)%, (73.11±9.23)%, (55.62±7.67)%, (41.13±6.35)%, (40.36±5.68)%], and the expression of p-YAP/YAP protein (0.98±0.08, 0.83±0.11, 0.69±0.07, 0.55±0.07, 0.53±0.05) were significantly decreased, the apoptosis rate [(2.88±0.34)%, (5.20±0.57)%, (8.37±0.94)%, (12.71±1.58)%, (12.03±2.21)%] and the expression of p-MST1/MST1 (0.41±0.04, 0.53±0.07, 0.75±0.07, 0.89±0.08, 0.88±0.07] and p-LATS1/LATS1 protein (0.40±0.04, 0.52±0.06, 0.64±0.06, 0.77±0.08, 0.79±0.08) were significantly increased, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Schisandrin A may inhibit the proliferation of prostate cancer cell and promote cell apoptosis by inhibiting Hippo-YAP signaling pathway.
