Anticancer Effect of Isoliquiritigenin on Human Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma 786-O Cells and Molecular Mechanism
To investigate the anticancer effect of isoliquiritigenin (ISL) on human clear cell renal cell carcinoma 786-O cells
and explore its possible molecular mechanism.
Method:
2
Thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was used to detect effect of ISL (0

100 μmol·L
-1
) on proliferation of 786-O cells. The effect of ISL on migration and invasion of 786-O cells was detected by cell scratch test and Transwell assay. The autophagy was observed under the fluorescence microscope through acridine orange staining and Ad-GFP-LC3 transfection experiment. Western blot was used to detect the expression of autophagy related protein and analyze the changes of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B(Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway to explore the possible mechanism.
Result:
2
MTT results showed that ISL could significantly inhibit the proliferation of 786-O cells in a time-dose dependent manner (
P
<
0.05). The results of scratch and Transwell experiments indicated that ISL could inhibit the migration and invasion of 786-O cells (
P
<
0.05). Acridine orange staining and ad-GFP-LC3 transfection showed that ISL can induce autophagy in 786-O cells. Besides
ISL can induce LC3-Ⅱ
Beclin1
Atg5 protein expressions (
P
<
0.05)
and significantly reduce p62 protein expression (
P
<
0.05); autophagy inhibitor 3-methyl adenine (3-MA) can be added to reverse the above phenomena (
P
<
0.05). Meanwhile
ISL can inhibit phosphorylation of Akt
mTOR levels (
P
<
0.05)
inhibitor LY294002 and rapamycin (Rap) can be added to significantly re-regulate LC3-Ⅱ
Beclin1
Atg5 protein expressions (
P
<
0.05) and significantly down-regulate p62 protein expression (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion:
2
ISL can inhibit the proliferation
migration and invasion of clear cell renal carcinoma 786-O cells
and induce autophagy by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.
