- Abstract: Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism of Brusatol(BRU)regulating apoptosis of Hela cells through TLR9-MyD88 signaling pathway.Methods Hela cells preserved in our laboratory were treated with Brucea javanica at different concentrations(0,5.0,10.0,20.0,40.0,80.0 nmol·L-1).Hela cells were divided into Control group(normal cultured Hela cells),BRU-L group(treated with 10.0 nmol·L-1 Brucea javanica)and BRU group-H(treated with 20.0 nmol·L-1 Brucea javanica)Cells were treated with nmol·L-1 of Brucea javanica),BRU+pcDNA-NC group(transfected with pcDNA-NC+20.0 nmol·L-1 of Brucea javanica),BRU-H+pcDNA-TLR9 group(transfected with pcDNA-TLR9+20.0 nmol·L-1 of Brucea javanica).Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 and EdU methods.Apoptosis was detected by TUNNEL staining and flow cytometry.The protein expression levels of TLR9,MyD88,Bax,Bcl-2,Cleaved Caspase-3 and Cleaved Caspase-9 were detected by Western blot.Cell apoptosis and mitochondrial membrane potential detection kit(JC-1)were detected by flow cytometry,and the contents of adenosine triphosphate(ATP)and reactive oxygen species(ROS)were detected by ELISA.Results Compared with 0 nmol·L-1 group,the survival rate and IC50 value of 10 nmol·L-1 group were significantly decreased(P<0.05).After stimulation of BRU with different concentrations,the proliferation ability of cells was significantly decreased in a dose-dependent manner(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuracil(EDU)positive cell rate,TUNEL positive cell rate,apoptosis rate and Bcl-2 protein of cells in BRU-L,BRU-H and pcDNA-NC groups were significantly decreased.The protein levels of TLR9 and MyD88,Bax,Bax/Bcl-2,Cleaved Caspase-3 and Cleaved Caspase-9 were significantly increased(P<0.05).In control group,BRU-L,BRU-H group/BRU-H+pcDNA-NC,there was a continuous decreasing trend(P<0.05).Compared with the BRU-H+pcDNA-NC group,the EDU positive cell rate,TUNEL positive cell rate,apoptosis rate and Bcl-2 protein in the BRU-H+pcDNA-TLR9 group were significantly increased.The protein levels of TLR9 and MyD88,Bax,Bax/Bcl-2,Cleaved Caspase-3 and Cleaved Caspase-9 were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with Control group,JC-1 level and ATP content in BRU-L,BRU-H and BRU-H+pcDNA-NC groups were significantly decreased,while ROC content and mitotracker positive cell level were significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with BRU-L group,JC-1 level and ATP content in BRU-H group and BRU-H+pcDNA-NC group were further decreased,while ROC content and mitotracker positive cell level were further increased(P<0.05).Compared with the BRU-H+pcDNA-NC group,the levels of JC-1 and ATP in the BRU-H+pcDNA-TLR9 group were increased,while the levels of ROC,mitotracker staining positive cells were decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion Brucea javanica can produce Hela cell proliferation by regulating TLR9-MyD88 signaling pathway.
