Total glucosides of paeony inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced proliferation, migration and invasion in androgen insensitive prostate cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: Previous studies demonstrated that inflammatory microenvironment promoted prostate cancer progression. This study investigated whether total glucosides of paeony (TGP), the active constituents extracted from the root of Paeonia Lactiflora Pall, suppressed lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated proliferation, migration and invasion in androgen insensitive prostate cancer cells. PC-3 cells were incubated with LPS (2.0 μg/mL) in the absence or presence of TGP (312.5 μg /mL). As expected, cells at S phase and nuclear CyclinD1, the markers of cell proliferation, were increased in LPS-stimulated PC-3 cells. Migration activity, as determined by wound-healing assay and transwell migration assay, and invasion activity, as determined by transwell invasion assay, were elevated in LPS-stimulated PC-3 cells. Interestingly, TGP suppressed LPS-stimulated PC-3 cells proliferation. Moreover, TGP inhibited LPS-stimulated migration and invasion of PC-3 cells. Additional experiment showed that TGP inhibited activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/p38 in LPS-stimulated PC-3 cells. Correspondingly, TGP attenuated upregulation of interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 in LPS-stimulated PC-3 cells. In addition, TGP inhibited nuclear translocation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in LPS-stimulated PC-3 cells. These results suggest that TGP inhibits inflammation-associated STAT3 activation and proliferation, migration and invasion in androgen insensitive prostate cancer cells.

Project description:BackgroundG protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1) is a G protein-coupled receptor for bile acids, which is widely expressed in many human tissues. Patchouli alcohol (PA) has been shown to have an anti-cancer effect, including in prostate cancer (PCa). This study sought to confirm the regulatory mechanism of GPBAR1 in the anti-cancer activity of PA in PCa.MethodsThe SwissTargetPrediction website (Pro >0) was used to predict the target of PA. The UALCAN and The Cancer Genome Atlas-Prostate cohort was used to examine the differentially expressed genes and PCa recurrence. A gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was conducted to analyze the relationship between the expression of GPBAR1 and PCa proliferation, migration, and invasion. Cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were assessed by colony formation, 5-Ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine staining, cell scratch assays, and Transwell invasion assays, respectively. A xenograft animal model was established to assess the effect of PA on tumor growth in vivo. GPBAR1 protein and apoptosis related protein expression was measured by western blot.ResultsGPBAR1 was a PA target predicted by the SwissTargetPrediction website. PA inhibited the expression of GPBAR1 in PCa cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The abnormal expression of GPBAR1 was related to cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Additionally, GPBAR1 overexpression promoted the cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, and inhibited the apoptosis of PCa cells. GPBAR1 silencing inhibited the cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, and promoted the apoptosis of PCa cells. High expressions of GPBAR1 suppressed tumor growth in tumor-bearing mice. Further, GPBAR1 promoted the activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling, and PA regulated the malignant phenotypes of PCa cells via the NF-κB signaling pathway mediated by GPBAR1.ConclusionsGPBAR1 is a promising drug target of PA, and was shown to regulate the proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of PCa cells through GPBAR1/NF-κB inhibition.
