Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to further explore the effects of SI-4650, a newly discovered small molecule inhibitor of spermine oxidase (SMO) in our laboratory, on proliferation and migration of human osteosarcoma 143B cells and its underlying molecular mechanism. Chemiluminescence and high performance liquid chromatograph were used to analyze the effect of SI-4650 on SMO activity in 143B cells. DCFH-DA-staining/FCM was used to analyze the accumulation of cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), whereas MTT and FCM were used to detect proliferation and cell cycle. Transwell culture and Western blot were used to analyze the expression levels of migration-related proteins. PI/FITC-Annexin V/FCM, fluorescence microscopy and Western blot were used to analyze apoptosis and autophagy. Our results showed that SI-4650 could significantly decrease SMO activity, inhibit cell proliferation or migration, and induce a S-phase cell cycle arrest in 143B human osteosarcoma cells. The mechanism may be related to interfering with polyamine metabolism, activating mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis and causing autophagic death. These results suggest that SI-4650 has the potential for clinical use in treatment of osteosarcoma.
