Inhibition of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate on transforming growth factor-beta 2 induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition in human lens epithelial cells
摘要
Abstract
AIM:To investigate the mechanism of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate(PDTC)on transforming growth factor-beta 2(TGF-β2)-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)in human lens epithelial cells(LECs).?METHODS:LECs were treated with various doses of PDTC chemicals following TGF-β2 caused EMT on these cells.Cell proliferation and lateral migration were discovered using the CCK-8 and cell scratch test.The markers of EMT,including E-cadherin,α-SMA and nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway-related expression,were tested by Western Blot as well as the changes in the expression of the apoptosis-related proteins BAX,BCL-2,Caspase-3,and Cyclin D1.?RESULTS:The proliferation and migration viability of cells in the TGF-β2 treated group was increased compared to the group without TGF-β2,and the expression of α-SMA increased whereas the E-cadherin expression decreased.With the effect of TGF-β2,NF-κB p65 and phosphorylated NF-κB p65 expression increased,the concentration of TGF-β2 that had the greatest capacity for proliferation and migration was 10 ng/mL(P<0.05).Mechanism study of PDTC-induced EMT reversal and apoptosis showed that cell viability and migratory capability were both significantly reduced after PDTC intervention;PDTC prevents IκB phosphorylation,thus inhibiting NF-κB nuclear translocation.Protein associated to the NF-κB signaling pathway,and protein expression of NF-κB/IκBα/p-IκBα/Iκκ-α/p-Iκκ-α was decreased(P<0.05),PDTC increased the expression of the pro-apoptotic protein BAX/Caspase-3,expression of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein BCL-2 and the cell cycle protein Cyclin D1 was reduced.The expression of NF-κB/IκB mRNA was reduced,expression of the apoptosis-related mRNA BAX increased,while BCL-2 reduced.?CONCLUSION:The EMT in LECs cells induced by TGF-β2 can be significantly reversed by PDTC,which may be related to the decreased expression of NF-κB p65/IκB/Iκκ-α and activation of apoptosis-related protein.PDTC can reverse EMT by inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway and induce apoptosis of abnormally proliferated cells,which will provide new potential therapeutic agents for posterior capsular opacification(PCO)treatment.关键词
