Effect of Capsaicin in Inhibiting Migration and Invasion of Breast Cancer MCF-7 Cells by Down-regulating SIRT1
To investigate the effect of capsaicin on the migration and invasion of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells and the underlying molecular mechanism.
Method:
2
Three capsaicin intervention groups of different concentrations (25
50
75 μmol·L
-1
) and a blank group were set up. After MCF-7 cells were treated with different concentrations of capsaicin (25
50
75 μmol·L
-1
) for 24 h
the cell migration and invasion abilities were assessed by Transwell migration and invasion assay
respectively. Meanwhile
the mRNA level of silent information regulator 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1) and DNA polymerase
δ
catalytic subunit p125 encoding gene POLD1 (POLD1) were detected by Real-time polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). The protein levels of SIRT1 and DNA polymerase
δ
catalytic subunit p125 (p125) were detected by Western blot.
Result:
2
Compared with the blank group
the number of transmembrane cells was significantly reduced
and the mobility was significantly decreased (
P
<
0.01) in a dose-dependent manner after the intervention of capsaicin (25
50
75 μmol·L
-1
) in MCF-7 cells for 24 h. Capsaicin (25
50
75 μmol·L
-1
) significantly down-regulated the mRNA and protein expressions of SIRT1 (
P
<
0.01) after intervention of capsaicin (25
50
75 μmol·L
-1
) in MCF-7 cells for 24 h. Furthermore
capsaicin (25
50
75 μmol·L
-1
) also significantly down-regulated the mRNA expression of POLD1 and the protein expression of p125 (
P
<
0.01) after intervention of capsaicin (25
50
75 μmol·L
-1
) in MCF-7 cells for 24 h.
Conclusion:
2
Capsaicin remarkably inhibits the cell migration and invasion of breast cancer MCF-7 cells
and the possible mechanism may be related to the down-regulation of SIRT1 and POLD1 mRNA expression levels and SIRT1 and p125 protein expression levels.
