摘要: 目的 探讨皖南蝮蛇毒抑瘤组分-I(AHVAC-I)对三阴性乳腺癌细胞MDA-MB-231血管拟态能力的影响及其可能的作用机制。方法 采用CCK8实验根据半数抑制浓度(IC50)确定AHVAC-I实验浓度,将MDA-MB-231细胞分为3组:对照组(不含药物的培养基处理)、AHVAC-I实验组、药物对照组(5-Fu处理)。Matrigel实验检测分析不同浓度AHVAC-I作用对MDA-MB-231血管拟态能力的影响。运用定量PCR和Western blot检测基质金属蛋白酶2(MMP2)与MMP9的表达水平。结果 相较对照组,5、10、20 μg/mL AHVAC-I可显著抑制MDA-MB-231细胞的血管拟态能力(P<0.01),且呈剂量依懒性。RT-PCR及Westernblot结果显示,AHVAC-I能够抑制MMP2的表达水平,降低三阴性乳腺癌细胞MDA-MB-231分泌生成的MMP2(P<0.01),而MMP2的补入可恢复因AHVAC-I作用而抑制的MDA-MB-231细胞血管拟态的能力。结论 AHVAC-I可通过下调MMP2的表达,抑制乳腺癌细胞MDA-MB-231血管生成拟态的形成能力。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of agkistrodon halys venom antitumor component-I (AHVAC-I) on vasculogenic mimicry (VM) formation in triple-negative breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells and explore its possible mechanism. Methods CCK8 assay was used to determine the optimal concentration of AHVAC-I for cell treatment based on its halfinhibitory concentration (IC50). MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with different concentrations of AHVAC-I or 5-Fu, and the changes in vasomimetic capacity of the cells were examined using Matrigel assay. The expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP2) and MMP9 in the treated cells were detected using quantitative PCR and Western blotting. Results Compared with the control treatment with culture medium, treatment with 5, 10 and 20 μg/mL AHVAC-I significantly reduced vasomimetic ability of MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.01). MMP2 supplementation obviously restored the vasomimetic ability of the cells inhibited by AHVAC-I. Conclusion AHVAC-I inhibits VM formation in triplenegative breast cancer cells in vitro by down-regulating MMP2 production.
