Abstrakt:	Introduction: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a poor prognosis of a malignant tumor that has been unresponsive to conventional chemotherapeutic agents. Effective and novel therapeutic agents are urgently needed. VR12684 (isolated from Mallotus spodocarpus) has been reported to exhibit growth inhibitory activities in cancer cell lines. The present study investigated the growth inhibitory mechanisms of this compound in a human CCA cell line (KKU-M156). Methods: The effects of VR12684 on anti‑proliferation, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis induction in CCA cells were demonstrated by SRB assay, flow cytometry, acridine orange/ethidium bromide (AO/EB) staining and western blot analysis. Results: Treatment with VR12684 decreased cell proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner in the KKU-M156 cell line. VR12684 induced cell cycle arrest in the G2 phase in KKU-M156 through down-regulation of cyclin B1 and Cdk1 and up-regulation of p21, p27 and p53 levels. VR12684 induced mitochondria-mediated apoptosis by increasing DNA fragmentation, the Bax/BCL-2 ratio and AIF, and decreasing survivin with subsequent activation of caspase-9 and -3. This compound could induce apoptosis through the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-mediated pathway by up-regulation of GRP78, IRE1α and GADD153 levels leading to down-regulation of Bcl-2 and activation of calpain-1, caspase-7 and -12. Conclusion: These results suggested that VR12684 inhibited KKU-M-156 cell growth by way of cell cycle arrest and induction of apoptosis, at least in part, through the mitochondria- and ER-associated intrinsic pathways. Such compounds warrant evaluation as a candidate for the treatment of human CCA.
