Abstract:
AIM:To investigate the effects of survivin inhibitor YM155 {4,9-dihydro-1-(2-methoxyethyl)-2-methyl-4,9-dioxo-3-(2-pyrazinylmethyl)-4,9-dihydro-1H-naphtho[2,3-d]imidazolium bromide} on the apoptosis, mito-chondrial membrane potential (Δψm) and cytochrome C (Cyt C) of retinoblastoma Y79 cells, and to analyze the mitochon-drial mechanisms of apoptosis .METHODS:Y79 cells were cultured in vitro and treated with YM155 at concentrations of 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4 and 8 nmol/L.The cells in control group were treated without YM 155.The proliferation of Y79 cells were measured by CCK-8 assay and bromodeoxyuridine ( BrdU) labeling assay .Y79 cells were randomly divided into 4 groups:control group ( with equal volume of RPMI-1640 nutrient medium ) , positive control group ( 10 nmol/L topotecan ) , low-dose (1 nmol/L) YM155 group and high-dose (2 nmol/L) YM155 group.The effects of YM155 on the apoptosis, the changes of Δψm , the mitochondrial distribution and the protein level of Cyt C in the Y 79 cells were evaluated by flow cytom-etry with Annexin V-FITC/PI staining, JC-1 staining, immunofluorescence analysis and Western blot , respectively.RE-SULTS:Compared with control group , YM155 significantly inhibited the proliferation of Y 79 cells and induced apoptosis (P<0.05).YM155 significantly reduced Δψm of the Y79 cells, promoted Cyt C which released from mitochondria to the cytosol and reduced the protein level of Cyt C in the mitochondria (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:YM155 inhibits Y79 cell proliferation and induces apoptosis , and the possible mechanisms may be involved in the mitochondrium-mediated apoptotic pathway .
