【摘要】 宫颈癌是妇科最常见的恶性肿瘤之一。传统的治疗方法以手术和放疗为主,新辅助化疗是近十年来兴起的治疗手段,有效地改善了局部晚期患者的生活质量及预后。但仍有20%左右患者出现耐药现象,是临床治疗上棘手的问题。泛素—蛋白酶体途径是细胞内蛋白质降解的重要途径,研究表明蛋白酶体抑制剂不仅本身具有诱导细胞凋亡的作用,而且可增加化疗药物的敏感性,逆转耐药细胞株的耐药性。目前,蛋白酶体抑制剂已应用于多发性骨髓瘤的治疗,取得了令人满意的效果,被认为是具有实用价值的肿瘤治疗的新型靶向药物。然而,对宫颈癌的研究才刚起步,其诱导肿瘤细胞凋亡和增强肿瘤细胞对化疗耐药性的机制尚不清楚,对其功能的研究极具理论和临床意义。MG132是一种可逆性蛋白酶体抑制剂,在多种肿瘤细胞研究中广泛应用,为探讨MG132是否具有抗宫颈癌活性及能否增加顺铂敏感性,为蛋白酶体抑制剂辅助治疗宫颈癌的临床应用的可能性提供实验和理论依据,本研究分为三部分:(一)MG132对Hela细胞增殖凋亡的影响;(二)MG132增强Hela细胞对顺铂敏感性及其治疗裸鼠成瘤模型的疗效观察;(三)MG132逆转HCE1多细胞球体对顺铂天然耐药的研究。第一部分目的:研究蛋白酶体抑制剂MG132对人宫颈癌细胞株Hela细胞增殖和凋亡的作用,并观察MG132对Hela细胞中p27蛋白表达的影响。方法:1

【Abstract】 Cervical cancer is the one of the most common gynecological malignancy.Traditional therapy was based on surgery and radiotherapy. Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy is a new treatment rising in the past 10 years,which can effectively improve the quality of life and prognosis for the patient with locally advanced cervical cancer.However there are still about 20%of the patients having a drug-resistant phenomenon,to become a formidable problem in our clinical therapy.Ubiquitin-proteasome pathway plays a key role in the intracellular protein degradation.Research shows that proteasome inhibitors can not only induce the apoptosis of tumor cells but also increase the sensitivity of the chemotherapeutics and reverse the chemoresistance of drug-resistant cell lines.At present,the proteasome inhibitors have been used in multiple myeloma treatment and got satisfactory therapeutic efficacy.Given this important role the proteasome represents a novel target for chemotherapy with practical value.Nevertheless,the study of the proteasome inhibitor on the solid tumor is just at its starting stage and its mechanism of action is not yet clear,so it is of theoretical and clinical significance to investigate its function.MG132,a reversible proteasome inhibitor,has been used for the study of several tumors.To probe whether MG132 can enhance the sensitivity of cisplatin to cervical cancer cells and offer an experimental and theoretical basis on the possibility for the clinical application of proteasome inhibitor adjuvant therapy to cervical cancer this study which contains three parts:(1)The effect of MG132 on cell proliferation and apoptosis of human cervical Hela cells.(2)The observation whether MG132 could sensitize the Hela cells to cisplatin and inhibit the xenografts of Hela cells on the nude mice.(3)The research of MG132 on reversal of natural drug-resistance to cisplatin of HCE1/MCS Part OneObjectives:To investigate the effect of MG132 on cell proliferation and apoptosis of human cervical Hela cells in vitro and observe the influence of MG132 on the expression of p27.Methods:1 Detection of the cellular growth inhibition ratio by MTT assay.(1) HeLa cells were cultured and treated by MG132 with different concentrations for 24 hours respectively.Cellular viability and IC50 were measured by MTT assay.(2)HeLa cells were cultured and treated by MG132 with different final concentration for 48 and 72 hours and the cellular growth inhibition ratio were detected by MTT assay respectively.2 The morphological features of the apoptosis of HeLa cells induced by MG132(1) we observed the morphological features of apoptotic cells induced by MG132 with inverted microscope.(2) Acridine orange combined with Ethidium bromide staining:Hela cells were treated with 10μmol/L MG132.Afterwards they were collected 48 hours later and observed after acridine orange combined with EB staining by fluorescence microscope.(3) Transmission electron microscope was used to observe the morphological alteration of Hela cells treated with 10μmol/L MG132 for 48 hours.3 The biochemistry feature of HeLa cells treated with MG132: After treated with MG132 10μmol/L for 48 h,Hela cells were collected and DNA was abstracted for gel electrophorosis.4 Analysis of apoptosis rate and cell cycle of HeLa cells through flow cytometry been exposed to MG132.(1) HeLa cells were cultured and treated by MG132 with disdinct concentrations for 48h,the apoptotic rate of HeLa cells were analyzed by flow cytometry after PI staining respectively.(2)Treated with MG132 10μmol/1 for 24,48 and 72 hours,the apoptotic rate and cell cycle distribution were examined through flow cytometry after PI staining.5 Immunocytochemistry was explored to detect the expression of p27 protein of different groups in which HeLa cells treated by MG132 with various final concentrations for 24 hours respectively.Results:1 After treated with MG-132,the growth of Hela cells were inhibited obviously.There were statistically significant diffferences of the proliferative inhibition among different experimental groups (F=3569.301,P<0.001),and there were also statistically significant differences of the proliferative inhibition rates for different duration of treatment(F=6155.339,P<0.001).There was an interaction between different concentrations and different duration by MG132(F=272.722, P<0.001).2 Hela cells became round,small,cell shrinkage,membrane blebbing and so on after being exposed to MG132.3 Acridine orange combine with Ethidium bromide staining showed that most of the cells in control group appeared fluorescent green uniform.But in experement group,most cells were yellow-green fluorescence.4 DNA ladder exist in experiment group.5 The typical ultrastructure of apoptosis cell was found by electron microscope after the cells treated with MG132:cell shrinkage,nucleus pycnosis,chromatin margination and apoptotic body can be seen.6 Quantification of the apoptosis effect by flow cytometric analysis showed that it was in a good correspondence with the loss in cell viability induced by MG132.There were statistically significant differences among experimental groups with different density of MG132 (F=1182.745,P<0.001);Meanwhile,treated with MG132 10μmol/l for 24,48 and 72 hours,the apoptotic rate of HeLa cells advanced obviously, and there were significant differences among experimental groups (F=357.090,P<0.001) Cell cycle arrested at G2/M phase when the duration of treatment prolonged.(F=49.206,P=0.001).7 In contrast to control group,The p27 protein expression level obvious up-regulated in MG132 group.(P<0.05).Conclusions:1 These observations suggested that the proteasome inhibitor MG132 could actively suppress the proliferation and promote apoptosis of human cervical carcinoma cell line HeLa cells in a dose and time-dependent manner. 2 The effect of apoptosis induced by MG132 in cervical cancer cells were proposed to be followed by p27-overexpressing.
