  • Sodium salicylate (NaSal), a chemopreventive drug, has been shown to induce apoptosis and cell circle arrest depending on its concentrations in a variety of cancer cells. In A549 cells, low concentration of NaSal (5$\sim$10 mM) induces cell cycle arrest, whereas it induces apoptosis at higher concentration of 20 mM. In the present study, we examined the molecular mechanism for NaSal-induced cell cycle arrest. NaSal induced expression of p53, p21 (Wafl/Cipl), and p27 (Kipl) that play important roles in cell cycle arrest. p53 induction was mediated by its phosphorylation at Ser-15 that could be prevented by the PI3K-related kinase (ATM, ATR and DNA-PK) inhibitors including wortmannin, caffeine and LY294002. In addition, NaSal-induction of p2l (Wafl/Cipl) was detected in P53 (+/+) wild type A549 cells but not in p53 (-/-) mutant H1299 cells, indicating p53-dependent p21 (Wafl/Cipl) induction. In contrast, p27 (Kipl) that is a negative regulate. of cell cycle with p21 (Wafl/Cipl) was observed both in A549 cells and H1299 cells. Thus, 5 mM NaSal appeared to cause cell cycle arrest through inducing the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21 (Wafl/Cipl) via PI3K-related protein kinase-dependent p53 activation as well as by up-regulating p27 (Kipl) independently of p53 in A549 cells.

  • Objectives: Hedyotis diffusa is used to treat cancer in traditional Korea Medicine. So this study was carried out to examine the expression of cell cycle related genes in HL-60 cells undergoing apoptosis by the methanol extract of Hedyotis diffusa. Methods: 1. HL-60 cells were treated with various concentrations (from 200 to $50{\mu}g/ml$)of methanol extract and H20 extract ($200{\mu}g/ml$) of hedyotis diffusa. After 48 h later, the cells were tested for viability by MTT assay. 2. The HL-60 cells were treated with $200{\mu}g/ml$ of methanol extract for the indicated periods. The whole cell lysates were prepared and analyzed by western blotting using anti-p53 antibody. 3. The nuclear extract were prepared and analyzed by western blotting using anti-p21 antibody, anti-p27 antibody, anti-cyclin A antibody, anti-cyclin E antibody and anti-CDK2 antibody. Results: 1. The methanol extract of Hedyotis diffusa induced the death of HL-60 cells in a dose dependent manner. 2. The methanol extract of Hedyotis diffusa makedly decreased the level of p21/Cipl and cyclin A in a time dependent manner. 3. The methanol extract of Hedyotis diffusa markedly increased the level of p27/Kipl and cyclin E in a time dependent manner. 4. The methanol extract of Hedyotis diffusa markedly did not affect the level of CDK2. Conclusions: These results provide evidence that expression of cell cycle related genes in HL-60 cells undergoing apoptosis by the methanol extract of Hedyotis diffusa mainly results from decreased level of p21/Cipl and increased level of p27/Kipl of the cell cycle related genes.

  • Objectives : This study was designed to evaluate the effect on cytotoxicity of Bojungikki-tang(BIT) in human lung cancer H460 cells. Methods : BIT-induced cell death was confirmed as apoptosis characterized by chromatin condensation and increase of the $sub-G_1$, DNA content. It was tested whether the water extract of BIT affects the cell cycle regulators such as, p2l/Cipl, p27/Kipl, cyclin $B_1$. Results : The data showed that treatment of BIT decreased the viability of H460 cells in a dose-dependent manner. p2l/Cip1 is gradually decreased by the addition of the cells with BIT extract. Interestingly, p27/Kip1 is not detected for 24 hr after the addition of BIT extract, however, after 24 hr, p27/Kipl markedly increased. In addition, cyclin $B_1$, decreased in a time dependent manner after the addition of the water extract. The activation of caspase -3 protease was further confirmed by degradation of procaspase-8 protease andpoly(ADP-ribose) polymerase(P ARP) by BIT in H460 cells. Moreover, BIT induced the increase of Bak expression. Conclusion : These results suggest that the extract of BIT exerts anticancer effects to induce the death of human lung cancer H460 cells via down regulation of cell cycle regulators such as p2l/Cip1, and cyclin B1 or up regulation of cell cycle regulators such as p27/Kip1. Moerover results suggest that BIT induces an apoptosis in H460 cells via activation of intrinsic caspase cascades.
