胃癌是最常見的惡性腫瘤之一,發(fā)病率和死亡率很高。大多數(shù)胃癌患者發(fā)現(xiàn)時即已有癌細胞侵襲和轉(zhuǎn)移,尋找理想的抗癌藥物是當務(wù)之急,表沒食子兒茶素沒食子酸酯(EGCG)是茶多酚中一種重要成分,國內(nèi)外許多學者發(fā)現(xiàn),EGCG在體內(nèi)外對許多腫瘤細胞增殖具有抑制作用[1-5],但是EGCG對人胃癌細胞遷移侵襲研究極少,也不明了其抗癌的分子機制。2012年6月至2012年8月,本課題組培養(yǎng)人胃癌BGC823細胞,并應(yīng)用EGCG處理,從體外觀察了對癌細胞遷移、侵襲和FoxM1基因基因蛋白的影響。
1.1 細胞培養(yǎng)及藥物處理 人胃癌BGC823細胞置于含10%胎牛血清的RPMI-1640液中,在37℃、CO2培養(yǎng)箱中常規(guī)培養(yǎng)。待細胞至對數(shù)生長期,采用不同濃度(20、40、80 μm)的EGCG)處理,以RPMI 1640代替EGCG處理細胞作為對照組,3復(fù)孔。
1.2 癌細胞遷移檢測 采用劃痕法檢測癌細胞遷移能力。實驗方法參照文獻[6]進行。拍照,計算間距。
1.3 細胞侵襲檢測 采用Transwell方法檢測癌細胞侵襲能力,實驗方法參照文獻[6]進行,計算各組穿過濾膜的癌細胞數(shù)目。
1.4 FoxM基因蛋白檢測 于EGCG處理癌細胞不同時間(24、48、72 h)后,收集各組細胞,提取細胞總蛋白,蛋白定量后進行常規(guī)蛋白質(zhì)印跡檢測。利用Kodak數(shù)碼軟件,測各條帶凈灰度值,并與內(nèi)參照β-actin的測定結(jié)果相比較,計算其比值。
1.5 統(tǒng)計學方法 采用SPSS 17統(tǒng)計軟件包進行統(tǒng)計學處理,所得到的數(shù)值均以±s表示。P<0.05為差異有統(tǒng)計學意義。
2.1 EGCG對人胃癌細胞遷移的影響 采用劃痕法觀察EGCG對癌細胞遷移間距的影響,結(jié)果顯示,EGCG組(80 μm、40 μm、20 μm)和對照組的間距分別為656±30、522± 12、407±10、258±70(μm),處理組距離明顯大于空白對照組,具有劑量依賴性。
2.2 EGCG對胃癌細胞侵襲的影響 收集經(jīng)EGCG處理的BGC823細胞,采用Transwell檢測癌細胞侵襲情況。對照組、不同濃度(20、40、80 μm)EGCG處理組細胞穿過濾膜的細胞分別為38.6±1.5(個),28.2±1.8(個)、15.8±1.2(個)、7.8 ±1.6(個)。統(tǒng)計學分析提示,細胞侵襲呈濃度依賴性減少(P<0.01)。
2.3 EGCG對胃癌細胞FoxM1蛋白的影響 以EGCG處理胃癌823細胞后,采用蛋白質(zhì)印跡方法檢測。結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn),與對照組比較,EGCG各處理組FoxM1基因蛋白水平明顯下調(diào),且呈濃度依賴性。
遷移性是轉(zhuǎn)移性癌細胞重要特征之一。體外培養(yǎng)時,正常細胞具有遷移的接觸抑制,因而呈單層生長;而癌細胞喪失了遷移的接觸抑制,從而呈多層重疊生長。本研究發(fā)現(xiàn),胃癌BGC823細胞具有較強的遷移性,而經(jīng)EGCG處理后,細胞遷移距離明顯縮短。

腫瘤侵襲與轉(zhuǎn)移過程非常復(fù)雜,盡管不同種類腫痛侵襲、轉(zhuǎn)移特性有所不同,但侵襲、轉(zhuǎn)移過程中的關(guān)鏈步驟基本相同。惡性腫瘤的轉(zhuǎn)移過程首先包括腫瘤細胞的分離脫落(即惡性腫瘤細胞從原發(fā)腫瘤病灶脫離),然后向周圍組織侵襲,當腫瘤細胞從原發(fā)腫瘤分離脫落后,必須穿透原發(fā)腫瘤周圍的宿主結(jié)締組織才能進人循環(huán)系統(tǒng),之后通過血液循環(huán)和淋巴循環(huán)游走到遠處組織器官,形成繼發(fā)性腫痛。在此過程中,腫瘤細胞侵襲細胞外基質(zhì)是重要的步驟。本研究觀察到人胃癌BGC823細胞具有較強的侵襲能力,經(jīng)EGCG處理后,侵襲力明顯下降。由此說明,EGCG對胃癌細胞侵襲具有明顯的抑制作用。
眾多基因參與癌細胞侵襲轉(zhuǎn)移過程,F(xiàn)oxM1信號在許多惡性腫瘤的發(fā)展中扮演著一個至關(guān)重要的角色[7]。研究發(fā)現(xiàn),在人肺癌、膠質(zhì)母細胞瘤、肝癌、乳腺癌、胰腺癌、胃癌等許多惡性實體瘤中,F(xiàn)oxM1均過表達[8-11];且發(fā)FoxM1過表達與胰腺癌細胞侵襲、轉(zhuǎn)移及不良預(yù)后密切相關(guān)[12]。本研究以EGCG處理胃癌細胞后,以蛋白質(zhì)印跡方法檢測FoxM1基因蛋白水平,結(jié)果顯示,EGCG各處理組MK蛋白水平明顯下調(diào)。因此,我們推測,EGCG抑制胃癌細胞遷移侵襲,可能與下調(diào)FoxM1基因表達有關(guān)。
本研究結(jié)果提示,EGCG可明顯降低胃癌細胞體外惡性遷移和侵襲能力,下調(diào)FoxM1基因蛋白表達,是其重要機制之一。
