Abstract

Polygonatum cyrtonema Hua (PcH) is a traditional medicinal and edible homologous plant. Here, the anticancer activity of different purified PcH saponins (PcHs) on the ovarian cancer (OC) cell A2780 were investigated. The PcHs were purified by AB-8. Their effects on the apoptosis, migration and invasion of A2780 were explored by CCK8, wound healing assay, Hoechst 33258 staining, Annexin V-FITC/PI and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) measurement. Moreover, western blot and realtime-PCR confirmation were performed for the associated protein and mRNA targets. The results showed that the content of PcHs increased from 0.31 ± 0.02 mg/mL to 0.79 ± 0.02 mg/mL after purification. The inhibition rate of purified PcHs on A2780 could reach 66.76 ± 0.56%. Specifically, it promoted cell apoptosis, disturbed the cell cycle, increased the ROS levels, regulated the expression levels of pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic proteins. PcHs can also regulate the expression level of proteins related to the invasion and migration characteristics of A2780, the mRNA expression level related to the P13K-Akt signal transduction process, and the extracellular matrix-receptor interaction pathway, as well as drug resistance. Overall, this study provides a new idea for the treatment of OC.

期刊介绍： Food and Chemical Toxicology (FCT), an internationally renowned journal, that publishes original research articles and reviews on toxic effects, in animals and humans, of natural or synthetic chemicals occurring in the human environment with particular emphasis on food, drugs, and chemicals, including agricultural and industrial safety, and consumer product safety. Areas such as safety evaluation of novel foods and ingredients, biotechnologically-derived products, and nanomaterials are included in the scope of the journal. FCT also encourages submission of papers on inter-relationships between nutrition and toxicology and on in vitro techniques, particularly those fostering the 3 Rs. The principal aim of the journal is to publish high impact, scholarly work and to serve as a multidisciplinary forum for research in toxicology. Papers submitted will be judged on the basis of scientific originality and contribution to the field, quality and subject matter. Studies should address at least one of the following: -Adverse physiological/biochemical, or pathological changes induced by specific defined substances -New techniques for assessing potential toxicity, including molecular biology -Mechanisms underlying toxic phenomena -Toxicological examinations of specific chemicals or consumer products, both those showing adverse effects and those demonstrating safety, that meet current standards of scientific acceptability. Authors must clearly and briefly identify what novel toxic effect (s) or toxic mechanism (s) of the chemical are being reported and what their significance is in the abstract. Furthermore, sufficient doses should be included in order to provide information on NOAEL/LOAEL values.
