Abstract:
Objective To study the effects and its probable mechanism of ultrasound-irradiation docetaxel-loaded microbubbles on apoptosis in human liver cancer cells MHCC97-H.Methods The MHCC97-H cells were randomly divided into 4 groups:control group,docetaxel-loaded microbubb[es group(DM),Ultrasound group (US),ultrasound irradiating docetaxel-loaded microbubbles group (DM + US).The livability,the morphological change of cells,cell apoptosis rate and the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen and MAPK pathway members of each group were respectively detected.Results After 24h,MTT test showed that the livability of MHCC97-H cells of DM group,US group and DM + US group were (76.0±3.0)%,(73.0± 5.0)% and (52.0 ± 6.0)% respectively,which was significantly declined comparing with control group (P < 0.05).The morphological of tumor cells in control group remain normal size and grow eugenic,while the cells of DM group,US group and DM + US group decreased,their shapes were irregular,the intercellular space increased,and cells apoptosis occured in the medium.The cells in DM + US group were changed significantly.FCM showed the apoptosis rate of DM + US group was (26.81 ± 2.82) %,which was declined clearly compared with (2.90 ± 0.99) % of the control group (P <0.05).Western-blot showed that the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen and p-ERK1/2 protein in DM + US group were down-regulated,and meanwhile p-p38 protein in human liver cancer cells MHCC97-H was up-regulated.Conclusions The method of ultrasound irradiating docetaxel-loaded microbubbles can significantly induce human liver cancer cells MHCC97-H apoptosis by regulating the expression of related protein.
