Since its first identification in prostate cancers and prostate tissues, transient receptor potential melastatin-subfamily member 8 (TRPM8) is subsequently found to be overexpressed in a wide range of cancers and is shown to be implicated in tumorigenesis and tumor progression. Here, we used N-(3-aminopropyl)-2-[(3-methylphenyl) methoxy] -N-(2-thienylmethyl) benzamide hydrochloride (AMTB), a specific TRPM8 antagonist, to explore its antitumoral effect on osteosarcoma. We find that AMTB suppresses osteosarcoma cell proliferation, metastasis and induces cellular apoptosis. Xenograft model in nude mice experiments also define that AMTB can increase the sensitivity of tumor cells to cisplatin, the cytotoxic chemotherapeutic regimens in treating osteosarcoma. Molecularly, AMTB specifically antagonizes TRPM8 which is upregulated in osteosarcoma and its expression level in osteosarcoma tissues is negatively related to patients’ prognosis. Finally, RNA sequencing analysis was performed to explore the mechanism underlying the antitumoral effect of AMTB on osteosarcoma cells and the results prove that AMTB suppresses the Transforming Growth Factor β (TGFβ) signaling pathway. Our study provides evidence that TRPM8 could be a potential therapeutic target and AMTB can suppress growth and metastasis of osteosarcoma cells through repressing the TGFβ signaling pathway and increase the sensitivity of tumor cells to cisplatin. |
