Synergistic Anti-cancer Effect and Mechanism of FZKA Decoction Combined with Gefitinib on A549 Cells
To observe the effect of Fuzheng Kangai (FZKA) decoction combined with gefitinib on the cells proliferation
apoptosis
invasion and metastasis of human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells
in vitro
and
in vivo
and relevant mechanisms.
Method:
2
The A549 cell proliferation of the control group
FZKA decoction groups (0.2
0.4
0.8
1.6
3.2 g·L
-1
)
Gefitinib groups (10
20
40
60
80
100 μmol·L
-1
) for 24
48
72 hours
and FZKA decoction (2 g·L
-1
) combined with Gefitinib (10 μmol·L
-1
) groups for 24 hours was detected by methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The changes of cell apoptosis
invasion and metastasis abilities of A549 cells were analyzed by flow cytometry
Wound Healing
transwell invasion assay. Western blot assay was used to examine the protein expressions of cleaved Caspase-3
B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2)
B-cell lymphoma-2 associated X (Bax)
F-box and WD repeat domain-containing (FBW7) and myeloid cell leukemia-1 (MCL-1)
in vitro
.
Result:
2
Compared with control group
FZKA decoction group and Gefitinib group inhibited the cell proliferation
cell apoptosis
cell invasion and metastasis abilities in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner
and improve the protein expressions of Bax
Caspase-3
FBW7
but decreased the protein expressions of Bcl-2
MCL-1 (
P
<
0.05). Compared with treatment with Gefitinib alone
FZKA combined with Gefitinib inhibited the proliferation of A549 cells
and induced apoptosis more significantly (
P
<
0.05). Compared with treatment with Gefitinib alone
the cell scratch healing and invasion abilities were significantly reduced after combined treatment (
P
<
0.05). FZKA decoction combined with Gefitinib up-regulated Bax
Caspase-3 and FBW7 protein expressions
and down-regulated Bcl-2 and MCL-1 protein expressions compared with treatment with Gifitinib alone (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion:
2
FZKA decoction combined with Gefitinib can inhibit the proliferation
invasion and metastasis
and induce apoptosis on A549 cells. The mechanism may be associated with the FBW7/MCL-1 pathway.
