摘要: 三羟基苯甲酸二聚体是从菱角中分离出的抗肿瘤单体化合物。本研究主要探讨三羟基苯甲酸二聚体对人早幼粒细胞性白血病细胞株HL-60细胞的抑制作用及诱导其凋亡的分子机制。通过MTT法检测三羟基苯甲酸二聚体对HL-60细胞的增殖抑制作用; 流式细胞仪检测细胞凋亡、细胞内活性氧及线粒体膜电位的变化; 蛋白印迹 技术 ( Western blotting ) 检测胞浆和线粒体细胞色素c水平, 分光光度法测定Caspase-9、Caspase-3蛋白活性。结果发现, 三羟基苯甲酸二聚体显著抑制HL-60细胞的增殖, 其作用呈时间和剂量依赖性。与对照组比较, 三羟基苯甲酸二聚体可增加HL-60细胞内活性氧水平, 降低HL-60细胞线粒体膜电位, 促进线粒体中细胞色素c释放入胞浆, 激活Caspase-9、Caspase-3蛋白。因此三羟基苯甲酸二聚体可能通过线粒体信号传导途径诱导HL-60细胞凋亡。Abstract: Trihydroxybenzoic acid dimmer is an anti-tumor compound which is separated from water-caltrop. This study is aimed to investigate its anti-proliferation effect on HL-60 cells and the possible mechanism of inducing apoptosis. MTT assay was used to test HL-60 cells proliferation. The apoptosis, ROS levels and the mitochondrial membrane potential were detected by flow cytometry. Cytochrome c released from mitochondria to cytosol fraction was detected by Western blotting. The activity of Caspase-9 and Caspase-3 were measured by colorimetric method. It was found to inhibit HL-60 cells proliferation in a dose and time-dependent manner. Compared with control group, it caused the increase of ROS levels and a concomitant dissipation of the mitochondrial membrane potential and induced cytosolic accumulation of cytochrome c and activities Caspase-9 and Caspase-3. Therefore it can be concluded that mitochondrial- dependent pathways was involved in its induction of apoptosis of HL-60 cells.
