Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of L-asparaginase on the proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis of Burkitt lymphoma cell lines and explore the molecular mechanism.Methods:The effect of L-asparaginase on the cell proliferation of Burkitt lymphoma cell lines was detected using the CCK-8 method. The apoptosis rate and cell cycle were detected using flow cytometry. The expression of related molecules in cell cycle, apoptosis, autophagy, and PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway was detected and analyzed using qPCR and Western blot assay.Results:L-asparaginase significantly inhibited the proliferation of Burkitt lymphoma cell lines and caused cell cycle arrest at G 0/G 1 phage. L-asparaginase induced cell apoptosis and autophagy in Burkitt lymphoma cell lines. Further results showed that L-asparaginase inhibited the expression of c-Myc and also inhibited the expression of p-PI3K, p-Akt-S473, p-mTOR, p-70S6K, and p-4E-BP1. Combining PI3K inhibitor LY294002 with L-asparaginase further induced apoptosis. Additionally, L-Asp inhibited STAT and ERK signaling pathways. Conclusion:L-asparaginase inhibited Burkitt lymphoma cell proliferation, arrested cell cycle, activated autophagy, and induced apoptosis by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.
