Abstract

Objective: To investigate the effect of Busulfan on the malignant biological characteristics of multiple myeloma cells and explore the molecular mechanism.

Methods: Multiple myeloma RPMI8226 cells were treated with Busulfan at different concentrations. Cell proliferation activity was detected by MMT assay, and cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry with Annexin V/PI double staining. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of apoptotic regulatory molecules BaxBcl-2 and Wnt3a/β-catenin pathway, and Western blot was used to detect the expression changes of Bax, Bcl-2 and Wnt3a/β-catenin pathway protein.

Results: Busulfan inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis of myeloma RPMI8226 cells (P<0.05). After treatment with Busulfan at different concentrations for 48 h, the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 was decreased, the expression of pro-apoptotic protein Bax was up-regulated, and the activation of Wnt3a/β-catenin signaling pathway was inhibited to induce programmed death of RPMI8226 cells (P<0.05).

Conclusion: Busulfan can inhibit the malignant biological characteristics of myeloma RPMI 8226 cells, and its mechanism may be related to regulating the expression of Bcl-2 family proteins and inhibiting the activation of Wnt3a/β-catenin signaling pathway.

题目: 白消安抑制多发性骨髓瘤细胞恶性生物学特性的分子机制.

目的: 探讨白消安对多发性骨髓瘤细胞恶性生物学特性的影响,并探索其分子机制.

方法: 予不同浓度梯度白消安干预多发性骨髓瘤RPMI8226细胞,MTT法检测细胞增殖活力,Annexin V/PI双染法流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡情况,实时荧光定量PCR技术检测凋亡调控分子BaxBcl-2Wnt3a/β-catenin通路信号分子mRNA的表达情况,Western blot技术检测Bax、Bcl-2及Wnt3a/β-catenin通路蛋白的表达改变.

结果: 白消安可明显抑制骨髓瘤RPMI8226细胞细胞增殖活性,并诱导其凋亡(P<0.05)。予不同浓度白消安干预细胞48 h后,可使抗凋亡蛋白Bcl-2表达减低,并上调促凋亡蛋白Bax的表达,同时抑制Wnt3a/β-catenin信号通路激活以诱导RPMI8226细胞发生程序性死亡(P<0.05).

结论: 白消安可抑制骨髓瘤RPMI8226细胞恶性生物学特性,其作用机制可能与调控Bcl-2家族蛋白表达及抑制Wnt3a/β-catenin信号通路激活有关.
