Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To study the mechanism of Compound lizard powder on reversing cisplatin(DDP) resistance in resistant gastric cancer cell MKN45/DDP through nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB)/SNAIL signaling pathway. METHODS MKN45/DDP cells were divided into model group (20% normal rat serum), DDP group (1.3 μg/mL DDP+20% fetal bovine serum) and Compound lizard powder low- and high-dose drug-containing serum+DDP groups (17.2, 68.8 g/kg Compound lizard powder 20% drug-containing serum+1.3 μg/mL DDP). The viability, apoptosis and intracellular autophagosome of MKN45/DDP cells were detected. The content of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) in the cell supernatant was detected. The expressions of B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-related X protein (Bax), as well as the protein expression levels of phosphorylated NF-κB p65 (p-NF-κB p65) and SNAIL were detected. The molecular mechanism of Compound lizard powder in improving DDP resistance was further clarified by using NF-κB pathway agonist tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). RESULTS Compared with model group and DDP group, the cell survival rates of Compound lizard powder low- and high-dose drug-containing serum+DDP groups were significantly decreased (P<0.05), while the levels of apoptosis and autophagic death were significantly increased (P<0.05). The expression levels of Bcl-2 (except for the compound lizard powder low-dose drug-containing serum+DDP group), p-NF-κB p65 and SNAIL protein in MKN45/DDP cells were significantly decreased (P<0.05). The content of LC3 and expression of Bax protein were significantly increased (P<0.05). High-dose Compound lizard powder drug-containing serum+DDP could effectively reverse the down-regulation of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ and Bax protein expression induced by TNF- α (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Compound lizard powder drug-containing serum combined with DDP can induce apoptosis and autophagic death of MKN45/DDP cells by inhibiting NF-κB/SNAIL signaling pathway, thus reversing DDP resistance of cells.
