Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effects of lutein on the adhesion,invasiveness and metastasis of human prostate cancer PC-3M cells and its action mechanism.Methods:We divided human prostate cancer PC-3M cells into a control,a low-dose lutein,a medium-dose lutein and a high-dose lutein group,and treated them with 0,10,20 and 40 μmol/L lutein,respectively.Then we ex-amined the adhesion of the cells to matrix by cell adhesion assay and the changes in cell pseudopodia by Phalloidin staining,detected the expressions of paxillin,matrix metalloproteinase 2(MMP-2),MMP-9,recombinant tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase 1(TIMP-1),E-cadherin,N-cadherin and vimentin by Western blot,determined the invasiveness and migration of the cells by scratch and Tran-swell assays,and observed their dynamic movement by high-intension imaging.Results:Compared with the control,the lutein inter-vention groups showed significant reduction in the number of the cells adhered to matrix,the number of cell pseudopodia,the expres-sions of paxillin,MMP-2,MMP-9,N-cadherin and vimentin,the rates of migration,invasion and metastasis,and the distances of dis-placement and movement of the cells.However,the expressions of TIMP-1 and epithelial-mesenchymal transition-related E-cadherin were upregulated significantly.Conclusion:Lutein can inhibit cell adhesion,reduce the expressions of MMPs,and suppress cell in-vasion and migration by inhibiting the proeess of epithelial-mesenchymal transition.
