Aim To investigate the role of mesence-phalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor(MANF)in the inhibitory effect of rhynchophylline(Rhy)on the malignant biological behaviors of gastric cancer cells and its underlying regulatory mechanisms.Meth-ods SGC-7901 gastric cancer cells were transfected using adenovirus and liposome transfection techniques.The experimental groups included:Control group,Rhy group,Rhy+NC group(Rhy+adenovirus-transfected MANF-irrelevant fragment),Rhy+si-MANF group(Rhy+adenovirus-transfected MANF siRNA),Vec-tor group(empty vector),OVE-MANF group(recom-binant plasmid overexpressing MANF).After 24 hours of intervention,cell proliferation,apoptosis,migra-tion,and invasion were assessed using the MTT assay,Hoechst staining,and Transwell assays,respectively.The expressions of MANF,Cyclin D1,and cleaved caspase-3 proteins were measured using Western blot.NF-κB transcriptional activity was evaluated via a lucif-erase reporter assay.Results Compared to the control group,Rhy treatment significantly inhibited gastric cancer cell growth in a dose-dependent manner(P<0.05),induced typical apoptotic morphological chan-ges,and increased the expression of MANF and cleaved caspase-3 proteins(P<0.05),while reduc-ing Cyclin D1 protein expression and NF-κB transcrip-tional activity(P<0.05).Additionally,Rhy treat-ment markedly decreased cell migration and invasion capabilities(P<0.05).In comparison to the Rhy group,adenovirus-mediated transfection of MANF siR-NA suppressed apoptosis,promoted gastric cancer cell proliferation,migration,and invasion,inhibited MANF and cleaved caspase-3 expression(P<0.05),and enhanced Cyclin D1 protein levels and NF-κB transcriptional activity(P<0.05).Compared to the Vector group,OVE-MANF(overexpression of MANF)induced apoptosis,suppressed proliferation,invasion,and metastasis of gastric cancer cells,upregulated MANF and cleaved caspase-3 expression(P<0.05),and inhibited Cyclin D1 protein levels and NF-κB tran-scriptional activity(P<0.05).Conclusion Rhy in-hibits the proliferation,migration,and invasion of gas-tric cancer cells and induces apoptosis,with its mecha-nism linked to the promotion of MANF expression and suppression of NF-κB transcriptional activity.
