Induction of apoptosis and autophagy in human glioblastoma cells by N-methylflindersine:insights into regulatory role of ERK pathway
目的:已知红树林相关植物能够产生具有抗肿瘤活性的天然化合物.尽管这些化合物具有潜在的治疗价值,但其抗肿瘤作用的分子机制尚需阐明.本研究侧重探讨一种来源于红树林相关植物大管[Microme-lum falcatum(Lour.)Tan.]的生物碱N-甲基芸香碱对人胶质母细胞瘤U87细胞的影响.方法:从大管茎皮中分离得到15种化合物.其中,N-甲基芸香碱被筛选用于评估其对U87细胞生长的抑制作用.采用划痕实验、Hoechst 33342/PI染色和蛋白免疫印迹等多种方法,研究了该化合物对细胞迁移、凋亡以及与自噬相关的蛋白的影响.结果:N-甲基芸香碱在24 h内抑制了U87细胞的迁移活动,抗凋亡蛋白Bcl-2的表达减少,促凋亡蛋白Bax的表达增加,促使U87细胞发生凋亡,同时提高了U87细胞中自噬相关蛋白LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ的比值.此外,在N-甲基芸香碱处理细胞后,发现ERK信号通路被下调.结论:N-甲基芸香碱能够诱导U87细胞的凋亡和自噬性细胞死亡,从而抑制细胞生长,这种效应似乎与ERK信号通路有关.
AIM:Mangrove-associated plants are known for producing natural compounds with antitumor ac-tivity.Despite the potential therapeutic value of these compunds,the molecular mechanisms underlying their antitumor ef-fects remain unclear.This study aimed to investigate the antitumor properties of N-methylflindersine,an alkaloid derived from the mangrove-associated plant,Micromelum falcatum(Lour.)Tan.,and its effects on U87 human glioblastoma cells.METHODS:We identified and isolated 15 compounds from the stem bark of Micromelum falcatum.Among these,we screened N-methylflindersine for its potential inhibitory effects on U87 cell growth.Various assays,including wound healing,Hoechst 33342/PI staining,and protein expression analysis,were conducted to investigate the compound's im-pact on cell migration,apoptosis,and autophagy-related proteins.RESULTS:Within 24 h,N-methylflindersine demon-strated the ability to reduce U87 cell migration and increase the apoptotic U87 cell population.Furthermore,it downregu-lated the anti-apoptosis protein Bcl-2 expression,upregulated the pro-apoptosis protein Bax expression,and elevated the ratio of autophagy-related protein LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ in U87 cells.Additionally,the ERK signaling pathway was found to be down-regulated following N-methylflindersine treatment.CONCLUSION:N-methylflindersine appears to induce both apoptosis and autophagic cell death in U87 cells,resulting in reduced cell growth.This effect seems to be associated with the downregulation of the ERK signaling pathway.
