Popis: 323 Background: Adiponectin is the key adipokine, which plays an important role in health and disease such as obesity, diabetes, and cancer. Adiponectin is reduced in different tumor types, especially in obesity-related cancer, and recent studies showed that Adiponectin had a potential anti-cancer effect. Obesity is a risk factor for various tumor diseases including cholangiocarcinoma (CC), the second most common primary hepatic cancer. The aim of this study is to investigate for the first time the anti-cancer effect of AdipoR agonist in CC cell lines and a CC engineered mouse model. Methods: Human CC cell lines (TFK-1 and SZ-1) and CC engineered mice (Alb-Cre/KRASG12D/p53L/L) were used to investigate the anti-cancer effects of an AdipoR agonist (2-(4-Benzoylphenoxy)-N-[1-(phenylmethyl)-4-piperidinyl]-acetamide). Cell proliferation, migration, invasion, colony formation, apoptosis assay were applied to evaluate the effect of AdipoR agonist in vitro. In addition, important cancer signalling pathways and targets were analysed by Western Blot. Mice (n = 12) were treated with AdipoR or verhicle and tumor burden and survival were monitored. Results: AdipoR agonist suppressed proliferation, migration, invasion, colony formation and apoptosis in CC cells. AdipoR agonist regulated the expression of different proteins such as EMT markers, pAMPK, pSTAT3, and PARP, which have pivotal functions in cholangiocarcinogenesis. AdipoR agonist also prolonged survival time in a CC engineered mouse model. Conclusions: Our data revealed that AdipoR agonist inhibited successfully cell proliferation, migration, invasion, colony formation and apoptosis in vitro, and prolonged mice survival in vivo through regulation of crucial signaling pathways in cholangiocarcinogenesis. These results suggested that AdipoR agonist might become a new potential candidate for CC treatment in the future.
