摘要:

目的 探讨重楼皂苷VII(PP7)的抗骨肉瘤疗效及其分子机制。 方法 采用超高效液相色谱串联质谱分析鉴定重楼的主要成分。建立骨肉瘤患者来源异种移植瘤(PDX)模型,将构建的6只PDX模型的裸鼠随机分为实验组和对照组,3只/组。实验组接受2 mg/kg PP7灌胃(2 d/次,共用药28 d),对照组给予等量生理盐水,测量两组肿瘤的体积和质量。在143B和HOS细胞中,采用CCK-8法检测不同浓度PP7(0、1.25、2.5、5、10 μmol/L)对肿瘤细胞增殖的影响并确定起效浓度。通过Transwell实验分析PP7对细胞迁移和侵袭的作用。结合单细胞转录组测序(scRNA-seq)、批量转录组测序(bulk RNA-seq)和分子对接预测PP7的作用靶点,采用Western blotting验证PP7对该靶点的调控作用。构建沉默SOHLH1的骨肉瘤细胞,设置对照组、PP7干预组(5 μmol/L)、沉默SOHLH1组及PP7+沉默SOHLH1组,分别检测各组细胞迁移、侵袭能力以及铁死亡相关指标ROS和LPO的水平。 结果 质谱分析发现PP7为重楼主要活性成分之一。体内实验中,PP7处理组肿瘤体积与质量均显著低于对照组(P<0.05)。体外实验显示,PP7以浓度依赖方式抑制骨肉瘤细胞增值,并在5 μmol/L浓度下抑制细胞增殖(P<0.05),且该浓度抑制细胞迁移与侵袭(P<0.05)。多组学分析确定SOHLH1为PP7潜在作用靶点。Western blotting证实PP7可上调SOHLH1 mRNA及蛋白表达(P<0.05)。SOHLH1沉默削弱了PP7对细胞迁移、侵袭的抑制作用,并减弱了PP7诱导的铁死亡(P<0.05)。 结论 PP7通过上调SOHLH1表达,诱导骨肉瘤细胞铁死亡,进而抑制其恶性进展。

Abstract:

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of polyphyllin VII (PP7) on osteosarcoma xenograft growth in mice and explore the underlying molecular mechanism. Methods Ultra‑performance liquid chromatography‑tandem mass spectrometry was used to analyze the main active components of Paris polyphylla. Six nude mice bearing patient‑derived xenograft (PDX) were randomized into two groups for treatment with 2 mg/kg PP7 gavage or saline every other day for 28 days, and the changes in tumor volume and mass were measured. In cultured 143B and HOS cells, the effect of PP7 treatment (0, 1.25, 2.5, 5, and 10 μmol/L) on cell proliferation was assessed with CCK‑8 assay, and Transwell assays were employed to examine the changes in cell migration and invasion. The target of PP7 was predicted by integrated analyses with single‑cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‑seq), bulk RNA sequencing (bulk RNA‑seq) and molecular docking and verified using Western blotting. In osteosarcoma cells transfected with SOHLH1 siRNAs or a negative control sequence, the effects of PP7 treatment (5 μmol/L) on cell migration, invasion, ferroptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and lipid peroxidation (LPO) were analyzed. Results PP7 was identified as one of the major active constituents of Paris polyphylla. In the tumor-bearing mice, PP7 treatment significantly lower the tumor volume and mass. In 143B and HOS cells, PP7 concentration‑dependently inhibited cell proliferation, and at 5 μmol/L, PP7 significantly inhibited cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Multi‑omics analysis identified SOHLH1 as a potential target of PP7, and Western blotting confirmed that PP7 upregulated SOHLH1 expressions at both the mRNA and protein levels. SOHLH1 silencing obviously attenuated the inhibitory effects of PP7 on cell migration and invasion and reduced PP7‑induced ferroptosis. Conclusion PP7 suppresses osteosarcoma xenograft growth in mice by inducing ferroptosis via upregulating SOHLH1 expression.
