摘 要:为研究银杏内酯B对食管癌细胞增殖和凋亡的作用及相关机制,采用体外培养人食管癌OE19细胞,将其分为对照组(不做干预)、低/中/高剂量试验组(分别加入6.25、12.50、25.00 μmol/L银杏内酯B)、银杏内酯B组(12.50 μmol/L银杏内酯B)、阳性药物组(4 mg/L顺铂)、抑制剂组[12.50 μmol/L银杏内酯B+10.00 μmol/L Janus激酶2/转录激活因子3(JAK2/STAT3)通路抑制剂AG490]、激活剂组(12.50 μmol/L银杏内酯B+0.50 μmol/L JAK2/STAT3通路激活剂Colivelin),干预24 h后,采用细胞计数试剂盒-8(CCK-8)、5-乙炔基-2'脱氧尿嘧啶核苷(EdU)法、Hoechst 33258染色法、实时荧光定量PCR(RT-qPCR)和蛋白免疫印迹(WB)法检测细胞的活力、增殖率、凋亡率及相关因子的表达水平。结果显示,与对照组相比,中/高剂量试验组与阳性药物组的细胞活力降低(P<0.05),因此,本研究选择有显著差异且较低浓度的12.50 μmol/L银杏内酯B作为银杏内酯B组进行后续试验。与对照组相比,银杏内酯B组和阳性药物组细胞的增殖率、Cyclin D1的mRNA和蛋白质、p-JAK2、p-STAT3蛋白的表达水平降低,凋亡率、Caspase-3的mRNA和蛋白质的表达水平升高(P<0.05)。与银杏内酯B组相比,抑制剂组各指标变化进一步增强(P<0.05),激活剂组则显著逆转了上述指标的变化(P<0.05)。银杏内酯B能够通过下调JAK2/STAT3信号通路抑制OE19细胞的增殖,促进食管癌细胞凋亡。本研究揭示了银杏内酯B新抗癌机制,为食管癌的研究提供了理论依据。

Abstract: To investigate the effects of ginkgolide B on the proliferation and apoptosis of esophageal cancer cells and the related mechanisms. Human esophageal cancer OE19 cells were cultured in vitro. They were divided into control group (no intervention), low/medium/high dose test group (adding 6.25, 12.50 and 25.00 μmol/L ginkgolide B, respectively), ginkgolide B group (12.50 μmol/L ginkgolide B), positive drug group (4 mg/L cisplatin) and inhibitor group [12.50 μmol/L ginkgolide B+10.00 μmol/L janus kinase 2/transcriptional activator 3 (JAK2/STAT3) pathway inhibitor AG490] and activator group (12.50 μmol/L ginkgolide B+0.50 μmol/L JAK2/STAT3 pathway activator Colivelin), 24 h after intervention, cell count kit 8 (CCK-8), 5-acetyl-2' deoxyuridine (EdU) method, Hoechst 33258 staining, real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and protein immunoblot (WB) were used to detect cell viability, proliferation rate, apoptosis rate and expression levels of related factors. The results show that: compared with the control group, the cell viability of the medium/high dose test group and positive drug group was decreased (P<0.05), therefore, in this study, 12.50 μmol/L ginkgolide B group with significant difference and lower concentration was selected as ginkgolide B group for follow-up tests. Compared with the control group, the cell proliferation rate, Cyclin D1 mRNA and protein expression levels, p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 protein expression levels of ginkgolide B group and positive drug group were decreased, while the apoptosis rate and Caspase-3 mRNA and protein expression levels were increased (P<0.05). Compared with the ginkgolide B group, the changes of all indexes in inhibitor group were further enhanced (P<0.05). while those in activator group were significantly reversed (P<0.05). Ginkgolide B can inhibit the proliferation of OE19 cells and promote apoptosis of esophageal cancer cells by down-regulating JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway. This study revealed a new anticancer mechanism of ginkgolide B and provided a theoretical basis for the study of esophageal cancer.
