Technical Field

Background
Tumor multidrug resistance (multidrug resistance, MDR) is one of the main causes of failure and recurrence of tumor chemotherapy, and is characterized by resistance to various other chemotherapeutics with different structures and mechanisms of action while malignant cells are resistant to one chemotherapeutic. Therefore, how to overcome the multidrug resistance of tumors is an urgent issue in cancer treatment.
Autophagy (autophagy), also known as type II apoptosis, is a mechanism of self-protection of body cells under stress conditions, a phenomenon commonly occurring during the treatment of cancer. Autophagy is a double sword for multi-drug resistant tumors according to the composition of tumor cells, the treatment mode and the change of microenvironment, and the double sword can participate in the generation of multi-drug resistance of the tumor and protect the tumor cells from being influenced by chemotherapeutics, but can also induce excessive autophagy of the cells to finally cause autophagic death of the tumor cells. Thus, modulation of autophagy to overcome multidrug resistance of tumors is a new strategy to treat various types of malignancies. However, in the related art, no technology has been disclosed for overcoming the multidrug resistance of tumors by using autophagy.

TABLE 1
Antitumor effect of total saponins of Solanum nigrum
In this example, the laboratory mice were female nude mice for 3-4 weeks purchased from the medical animal laboratory center in Guangdong province.
(1) Modeling an experimental animal model:
taking female nude mice of 3-4 weeks, inoculating equivalent human white blood by subcutaneous injection into left upper limbAdriamycin resistant strain K562/ADR, when cells become tumor and grow to about 100mm 3 And finishing the molding.
(2) Research on anti-tumor effect of total saponins of black nightshade:
the experimental mice after the modeling are divided into five groups randomly, and the following methods are adopted for treatment respectively:
model group: injecting the same amount of physiological saline into the abdominal cavity;
positive drug group: 2mg/kg of doxorubicin was injected intraperitoneally;
low dose group of total saponins of black nightshade: the total saponins of black nightshade extracted in the above example are infused with 62.5mg/kg by the mode of gastric administration.
Dose group of total saponins of black nightshade: the total saponins of the black nightshade, which are extracted from the above examples, are infused with 125mg/kg by the mode of gastric administration.
High dose group of total saponins of black nightshade: the total saponins of the black nightshade extracted in the above example are infused with 250mg/kg by the mode of gastric administration.
Wherein the positive drug group is administered once every 3 days for 6 times.
The experimental groups of total saponins of Solanum nigrum (low dose group, medium dose group and high dose group) were dosed once every 2 days for 7 times.
The experiment lasted for 24 days and the experimental flow chart and tumor volume changes are shown in figure 2.
Tumor volumes were weighed every other day and measured (formula:). Closely paying attention to vital signs of nude mice, dislocation is performed after the experimental period is finished, and the experimental mice are killed. Dissecting out the tumor and weighing the tumor.
The results are shown in FIG. 3.
From the results, compared with the model group, the tumor of the mice treated by SN administration has smaller obvious volume, especially the SN high-dose group, and even compared with the positive drug group, the inhibition effect on the tumor is most obvious, which indicates that SN can obviously inhibit the growth of K562/ADR transplanted tumor in vivo. From the tumor weight data obtained, it can be seen that SN-administered treatment significantly reduced tumor quality compared to positive drug treatment, especially for the high dose group, with significant differences compared to the positive drug group (p < 0.01).
Cytotoxicity of Solanum nigrum Total saponins
The effect of SN on cell proliferation and cell viability was examined using CCK-8, the specific experimental procedure was as follows:
taking K562 and K562/ADR cells at 5×10 respectively 3 The density of cells/wells was seeded in 96-well plates and placed in an incubator for overnight incubation. The total saponins of Solanum nigrum extracted in the above examples were added to wells at different concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20 and 40. Mu.g/mL) on separate days, incubated with cells for 24, 48 and 72 hours respectively, and then incubated with 10. Mu.L of CCK-8 solution per well for another 4 hours. Absorbance (OD value) was then measured at 450nm using a microplate reader.
The results are shown in FIG. 4.
The SN can be found to reduce the activity of K562 and K562/ADR cells in a concentration and time dependent manner, which indicates that the SN can effectively kill general leukemia cells and drug-resistant leukemia cells and has a certain anti-leukemia drug-resistant effect.
Research on action mechanism of SN anti-tumor drug resistance
Inoculating K562 and K562/ADR cells in logarithmic growth phase (inoculating concentration of 4×10) 5 cells/well) were placed in 6-well plates and incubated overnight in an incubator. Cells in wells were collected on alternate days for subsequent experiments.
The expression of BCRP and P-gp proteins in cells was detected separately using Western blotting. Wherein, the primary antibodies P-gp and BCRP are purchased from Wuhan Sanying (Wuhan, china) and the antibodies are used at a ratio of 1:2000 was diluted. The secondary antibody was rabbit antibody, purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, USA) and used at 1:2000 was diluted.
The results are shown in FIG. 5.
It can be found that the expression of BCRP, P-gp, etc. resistance proteins in K562/ADR cells is significantly higher than that in K562 cells (P < 0.01), suggesting that SN is effective in inhibiting K562/ADR cells probably due to its inhibition of expression of the relevant resistance proteins.
To further verify this hypothesis, the inventors individually inoculated K562/ADR cells in the logarithmic growth phase (at an inoculation concentration of 4X 10) 5 cells/well) were placed in 6-well plates and incubated overnight in an incubator. 2mL of the total saponins of Solanum nigrum extracted in the above examples at different concentrations (5, 10 and 20. Mu.g/mL) was added to each well every other day, and positive control doxorubicin (ADR, 50. Mu.M) was set and incubated with the cells for 24 hours, after which the expression of BCRP and P-gp proteins in the cells was detected by using the western blot method. Wherein, the primary antibody P-gp and BCRP are purchased from Wuhan Sanying (Wuhan, china), and the antibody is used at a ratio of 1:2000 was diluted. The secondary antibody was rabbit antibody, purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, USA) and used at 1:2000 was diluted. Blank controls (no SN and ADR added) were set.
The results are shown in FIG. 6.
It can be found that SN can effectively inhibit the expression of BCRP, P-gp and other drug-resistant proteins in K562/ADR, especially at a concentration of 20 μg/mL, the inhibition effect is even stronger than that of positive control doxorubicin (P < 0.01), and by this result, it can be shown that SN realizes the effect of inhibiting drug resistance of K562/ADR cells by inhibiting the expression of BCRP, P-gp and other drug-resistant proteins.
To further explore the mechanism of action of SN anti-tumor drug resistance, the inventors individually inoculated K562/ADR cells in the logarithmic growth phase (inoculation concentration 4X 10) 5 cells/well) were placed in 6-well plates and incubated overnight in an incubator. 2mL of the total saponins of Solanum nigrum extracted in the above example with a certain concentration (the concentration acting on K562/ADR cells is 10. Mu.g/mL, the concentration acting on K562 cells is 8. Mu.g/mL) was added to each well every other day, and after incubation with the cells for 0, 12, 18 and 24 hours, the expression of the G0/G1 phase-related cyclin (cyclin E2 and p 21) was detected by using a western blot method. Wherein the primary antibodies were derived from cell cycle regulatory antibody sampling kit II, the secondary antibodies were rabbit antibodies, all purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, USA), and the antibodies were used at 1: the ratio of 1000.
The results are shown in FIG. 7.
It was found that the ratio of G0/G1 cells (p 21 expression level/cyclin E2 expression level) was significantly increased compared to SN pre-treated cells, after treatment with SN for 12, 18 and 24 hours, indicating that SN significantly increased the expression of p21 protein in K562/ADR cells and K562 cells, whereas cyclin E2 protein was significantly decreased by SN, indicating that SN inhibited cell proliferation by blocking K562/ADR and K562 cell cycles (< 0.05, < 0.01).
To further explore the mechanism of action of SN anti-tumor drug resistance, the inventors have taken K562 and K562/ADR cells in logarithmic growth phase (seeding concentration 4X 10) 5 cells/well) were placed in 6-well plates and incubated overnight in an incubator. 2mL of the total saponins of Solanum nigrum extracted in the above examples at different concentrations (5, 10 and 20. Mu.g/mL) was added to each well every other day, and positive control doxorubicin (ADR, 50. Mu.M) was set and incubated with the cells for 24 hours, and then apoptosis-related proteins (PARP-1, pro-caspase 3, clear-caspase 3, pro-caspase 8 and pro-caspase 9) were detected by the western blot method (GAPDH as an internal reference). Wherein primary anti-PARP-1 and GAPDH are purchased from Wuhan Sanying (Wuhan, china), primary anti-pro-caspase 3, clear-caspase 3, pro-caspase 8 and pro-caspase9, and secondary anti-rabbit and mouse antibodies, purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, USA), removal of antibody GAPDH to 1:2000, the remaining antibodies were all diluted at a ratio of 1: the ratio of 1000.
The results are shown in FIG. 8.
SN can be found to significantly increase apoptosis rates in K562/ADR and K562 cells, and can be found to significantly increase PARP-1, clear-caspase 3 protein expression, and decrease pro-caspase 3, pro-caspase 8, and pro-caspase9 protein expression (< 0.05, p <0.01, p <0.001, p < 0.0001). In contrast, 50. Mu.M doxorubicin did not induce apoptosis in K562/ADR cells. The above results suggest that SN induces apoptosis in leukemia cells.
Meanwhile, in order to prove the conclusion, the inventor firstly uses pan-caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK (5 mu M) to pretreat K562/ADR for 4 hours, then adds SN (16 mu g/mL) according to the test method to incubate for 24 hours, and uses a western blot method to detect the expression condition of apoptosis-related proteins. Wherein primary anti-PARP-1 and GAPDH are purchased from Wuhan Sanying (Wuhan, china), primary anti-pro-caspase 3, clear-caspase 3, pro-caspase 8 and pro-caspase9, and secondary anti-rabbit and mouse antibodies, purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, USA), removal of antibody GAPDH to 1:2000, the remaining antibodies were all diluted at a ratio of 1: the ratio of 1000. pan-caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK is available from Selleck Chemicals (Houston, TX, USA)
The results are shown in FIG. 9.
It was found that the expression of pro-caspase 3 protein was significantly restored in K562/ADR cells after addition of Z-VAD-FMK (5. Mu.M) compared to SN treated groups, decreasing the expression of clear-PARP-1, clear-caspase 3 protein (ns was not significant, # P <0.01, # P <0.05, # P <0.01, # P < 0.001), indicating that the apoptotic effect of SN on K562/ADR cells was indeed produced by inducing caspase-dependent apoptosis in K562/ADR cells.
And detecting BCRP and P-gp protein expression of the K562/ADR cells in the Z-VAD-FMK pretreatment group by using a western blot method. Wherein, the primary antibody P-gp and BCRP are purchased from Wuhan Sanying (Wuhan, china), and the antibody is used at a ratio of 1:2000 was diluted. The secondary antibody was rabbit antibody, purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, USA) and used at 1:2000 was diluted. The pan-caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK was purchased from Selleck Chemicals (Houston, TX, USA).
As a result, it was found that Z-VAD-FMK pretreatment did not have any effect on BCRP and P-gp protein expression in K562/ADR cells (fig. 10, ns was not significant, #p <0.01, # P <0.05, # P < 0.01), suggesting that caspase-dependent apoptosis may not be the main cause of SN to overcome multi-drug resistance in K562/ADR cells.
Based on the above results, the inventors examined autophagy-related proteins (LC 3, p62/SQSTM 1) and Beclin-1) expression by the western blot method (according to the above test method). Wherein, the primary antibodies LC3, p62 and Beclin-1 are purchased from Wuhan Sanying (Wuhan, china), the secondary antibody is rabbit antibody, purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, USA), the antibodies are used as 1:2000 was diluted.
As a result, SN was found to significantly increase LC3-I to LC3-II conversion, and Beclin-1 protein expression, while decreasing p62 protein expression (fig. 11, p <0.05, p <0.01, p < 0.001). This result indicated that SN induced autophagy in K562/ADR and K562 cells.
To demonstrate the above conclusion, the inventors used the autophagy inhibitor 3MA (2 mM) or CQ (8. Mu.M) to pretreat K562/ADR cells for 4 hours, then added SN (16. Mu.g/mL) for co-incubation for 24 hours according to the above test method, and examined autophagy-related protein expression by western blot. Wherein, the primary antibody P-gp and BCRP are purchased from Wuhan Sanying (Wuhan, china), and the antibody is used at a ratio of 1:2000 was diluted. The secondary antibody was rabbit antibody, purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, USA) and used at 1:2000 was diluted. 3MA was purchased from Sigma Chemical (St.Louis, MO, USA), CQ was purchased from Albumin (Shanghai, china).
As a result, it was found that 3MA and CQ pretreatment significantly restored the expression of pro-caspase 3 protein, while simultaneously decreasing the expression of PARP-1, clear-caspase 3 protein, and also the expression of drug-resistance related proteins (BCRP, P-gp) was restored (fig. 12 to 13, ns were not significant, #p <0.01, #p <0.05, #p < 0.01). Pretreatment in combination with Z-VAD-FMK had no effect on LC3-I conversion to LC3-II in K562/ADR cells (fig. 14, ns was not significant, ×p < 0.01), suggesting SN-induced autophagy is a key factor in overcoming drug resistance and thus promoting K562/ADR cell death.
To verify the above conclusion, the inventors examined the expression of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway-related proteins (p-Akt, akt, p-mTOR, mTOR, p-p70S6K, p70S6K, 4EBP1 and p-4EBP 1) of K562/ADR and K562 cells by western blot as described above. Wherein the primary antibodies p-Akt, akt, p-mTOR, mTOR, p-p70S6K, p70S6K, 4EBP1 and p-4EBP1 and the secondary antibody were rabbit antibodies were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, USA), divided by 4EBP1, p-4EBP1 and rabbit antibodies to 1:2000, the remaining antibodies were all diluted at a ratio of 1: the ratio of 1000.
As a result, SN was found to significantly inhibit expression of p-Akt, p-mTOR, p-p70S6K, and p-4EBP1 proteins in K562/ADR and K562 cells (fig. 15, p <0.05, p <0.01, p <0.001, p < 0.0001). And SN significantly inhibited p-mTOR protein expression in K562/ADR nude mouse transplants compared to model and doxorubicin groups, increasing LC3-I to LC3-II conversion, consistent with the results above (fig. 16, p <0.01, p < 0.001). Thus, it can be shown that SN is capable of inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway of leukemia cells.
The inventor firstly uses mTOR agonist MHY1485 (10 mu M) to pretreat K562/ADR cells for 4 hours, then adds SN (16 mu g/mL) to incubate for 24 hours according to the test method, and uses a western blot method to detect the expression of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signal path related proteins, apoptosis related proteins, autophagy related proteins and drug resistance related proteins. Wherein, the primary antibody P-gp and BCRP are purchased from Wuhan Sanying (Wuhan, china), and the antibody is used at a ratio of 1:2000 was diluted. The secondary antibody was rabbit antibody, purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, USA) and used at 1:2000 was diluted. mTOR agonist MHY1485 is purchased from MedChemExpress (Shanghai, china).
As a result, p-mTOR, p-p70S6K, and p-4EBP1 proteins were found to be significantly increased following dry prognosis of MHY1485 (fig. 17, ns was not significant, #p <0.01, #p <0.05, #p < 0.01). In addition, MHY1485 also significantly restored (increased) pro-caspase 3 protein expression, decreased PARP-1, clear-caspase 3 protein expression (fig. 18, ns was not significant, #p <0.01, ×p <0.05, ×p < 0.01). More importantly, activation of p-mTOR protein expression by MHY1485 intervention significantly inhibited LC3-I conversion to LC3-II, as well as degradation of p62 protein (fig. 19, ns was not significant, #p <0.01, ##p <0.00001, #p <0.01, #p < 0.0001). Furthermore, the down-regulation of BCRP and P-gp protein expression by SN was significantly inhibited following activation of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway (fig. 20, ns was not significant, #p <0.01, #p <0.001, #p <0.05, #p < 0.01).
In summary, SN regulates K562/ADR autophagy via PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway to overcome tumor cell resistance, ultimately inducing autophagic cell death.
