Abstract:
【Objective】To explore the effects and the possible mechanism of KPT- 8602,a novel selective inhibitor of nuclear export protein (XPO1),on proliferation,cell cycle and apoptosis in human histiocytic lymphoma cell line U937 cells.【Methods】U937 cells were treated with different concentrations of KPT- 8602. Cell viability was assessed by CCK-8 assay. The cell cycle distribution and the apoptosis rate were analyzed by flow cytometry. The proteins expression of XPO1,p-AKT,AKT,Cleaved Caspase-3,p21 were determined by Western blot. Fluorescence microscope was used in observing the intracellular location of XPO1. 【Results】 KPT- 8602 inhibited the growth of U937 cells in a dose- dependent(P<0.001)and time- dependent manner(P<0.001),but normal PBMC were unaffected. 48 h after treatment with KPT-8602,a higher proportion of cells in G1 phase was observed(P<0.001)and the apoptosis rate increased(P=0.016)with drug concentration in U937 cells. XPO1 protein expression of U937 cells was significantly higher than normal PBMC(P=0.003). 48 h after treatment with KPT- 8602,the protein expression of XPO1 decreased(P=0.011),p-AKT decreased(P=0.011),and Cleaved Caspase- 3 increased(P=0.009). In addition,the protein expression of p21,the cargo protein of XPO1,increased in both the nuclei and the cytoplasm(P<0.05)after treatment with KPT- 8602. XPO1 decreased in both the nuclei and the cytoplasm under the fluorescence microscope after treatment with KPT- 8602.【Conclusion】KPT- 8602 can inhibit the proliferation of U937 cells,block the cell cycle at G1 phase,and induce cell apoptosis,which may partially be attributed to the down-regulation of XPO1 and inhibition of PI3K/AKT signaling.
