| Popis: | OBJECTIVE Hypomethylating agents (HMAs) have been reported to target the Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). However, the synergistic inhibitory effect of Smo inhibitor jervine and its combination with decitabine in MUTZ-1 cell lines remains lacking. METHODS We used a CCK-8 assay to detect the in-vitro proliferation rate of MUTZ-1 cell lines. Besides, the Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining flow cytometry was utilized to detect the apoptosis rate and cell cycle changes. The expression levels of mRNA were quantified by using qRT-PCR, and the western blot was employed to detect the expression of proteins. RESULTS We found that the single-agent jervine or decitabine can significantly inhibit the proliferation rate of MUTZ-1 cell lines, and this inhibitory effect is time-dependent and concentration-dependent. The combined intervention of the jervine and decitabine can more significantly inhibit cell proliferation, induce cell apoptosis, and block the G1 phase of the cell cycle. The combined intervention of the two drugs significantly reduced Smo and G1i-1 mRNA expression in MUTZ-1 cells. Furthermore, after combining both of the drug treatments, the proteins levels of Smo, G1i-1, PI3K, p-AKT, Bcl2, and Cyclin Dl were significantly downregulated, and Caspase-3 is upregulated, indicating that jervine with its combination of decitabine might be effective for controlling the proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycle. CONCLUSION The Smo inhibitor jervine and its combination with decitabine have a synergistic effect on the proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis of MUTZ-1 cells, and its mechanism may be achieved by interfering with the Shh signaling pathway. |
