To explore the effect of Scutellariae Barbatae Herba
extract on on the cycle arrest of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells and the possible mechanism by adding different concentration of Scutellariae Barbatae Herba
extract (0.25, 0.5, 1 g·L
-1
) in the culture medium, taking CNE1 (nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells) as the research object.
Method
2
After the treatment of CNE1 by Scutellariae Barbatae Herba extract, cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) was used to detect cell proliferation, and Giemsa staining was used to detect the clone formation rate. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell cycle distribution, and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR) assay and Western blot assay were used to detect the relative expression of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) by small interfering RNA (siRNA) or overexpression.
Result
2
As compared with the blank group, the proliferation and colony formation rate of CNE1 in the Scutellariae Barbatae Herba extract group significantly decreased (
P
<
0.05,
P
<
0.01) in a dose and time-dependent manner, whereas the percentage of cells in the presynthetic phase (G
0
/G
1
) increased (
P
<
0.05,
P
<
0.01). The expression level of S-phase kinase associated protein 2 (SKP2) in the Scutellariae Barbatae Herba extract group significantly decreased (
P
<
0.01) as compared with the blank group. As compared with the Scutellariae Barbatae Herba extract group, the protein levels of p21 and p27 significantly decreased in the overexpressed SKP2+ Scutellariae Barbatae Herba extract group (
P
<
0.01). As compared with the blank group, the signal activation and the phosphorylation level of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) of CNE1 in the
S. barbata
extract group significantly decreased (
P
<
0.05,
P
<
0.01).
Conclusion
2
Scutellariae Barbatae Herba extract effectively inhibits the proliferation of CNE1, and the mechanism may be related to its action on the STAT3/SKP2 pathway.
