Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of citrusinol on proliferation ,migration and the expression of skeleton-related proteins of human hepatocellular cells HepG 2,and to investigate its interaction mode with skeleton-related proteins. METHODS : CCK-8 assay was used to detect the effects of different concentrations (12.5,25,50,100,200 μmol/L)of citrusinol on the proliferation of HepG 2 cells for 24 h. HepG 2 cells were divided into negative control group ,citrusinol low-concentration and high-concentration groups (50,100 μmol/L citrusinol). After treated for 24 h,the migration of HepG 2 cells was detected by cell scratch test ;cell migration rate was calculated. mRNA and protein expression of F-actin ,β-tubulin and Ezrin in HepG 2 cells were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting assay. Molecular docking software Schrodinger 2015 was used to analyze the interaction mode between citrusinol and above 3 kinds of proteins. RESULTS :Citrusinol showed significant inhibition effect on the proliferation of HepG 2 cells (P<0.05 or P<0.01),in dose-dependent trend. Compared with negative control group ,cell migration, mRNA and protein expression levels of F-actin , β-tubulin, Ezrin were decreased significantly in citrusinol low-concentration and high-concentration groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Molecular docking results showed that the citrusinol could form hydrogen bond and hydrophobic bond with the above 3 skeleton-related proteins. CONCLUSIONS :Citrusinol can inhibit the proliferation and migration of HepG 2 cells,the mechanism may be associated with the down-regulation of mRNA and protein expression of F-actin ,β-tubulin and Ezrin. The mode of its interaction with skeleton-related proteins may be the formation of hydrogen bond or hydrophobic bond.
