Abstract:
Aim To explore the effects of the inhibition of cell adhesion , invasion and migration in non-small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC ) H460 and A549 cells in-duced by platycodin-D ( PD ) and its mechanism. Methods Cell adhesion assay, wound-healing assay and Transwell chamber migration assay were used to detect the ability of cell adhesion, migration and inva-sion. Regulation of MMP-2 and MMP-9 mRNA was de-termined by RT-PCR. Meanwhile, Western blot was performed to determine the expression levels of MMP-2/9 , its upstream related proteins of ERK signaling pathway and p-Akt. Results PD effectively inhibited the ability of cell adhesion, invasion and migration in H460 and A549 cells in a dose-dependent manner ( P<0. 05 ) . PD reduced the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 mRNA in H460 and A549 cells ( P<0. 01 );meanwhile, PD down-regulated the expression levels of MMP-2/9 , and inhibited the expression of its upstream proteins Ras, p-c-Raf, p-ERK 1/2 and p-Akt in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Conclusions PD inhibits cell adhesion, invasion and migration in NSCLC cells, and these effects are related to the down-regulation of the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 mR-NA and protein, and inhibition of its upstream expres-sion of ERK signaling pathway and p-Akt.
