Combined inhibition of Stat3 and HIF-1α for enhancement of radio-and chemo-sensitivity in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma

摘要: 目的: 研究信号转导子和转录激活子3(Stat3)和低氧诱导因子-1α(HIF-1α)对低氧条件下喉癌Hep-2细胞放疗及化疗抵抗作用的影响。方法: 应用Western blot技术检测低氧条件下喉癌Hep-2细胞中p-Stat3和HIF-1α蛋白的表达。MTT比色法分别检测单独和联合抑制Stat3和HIF-1α喉癌Hep-2细胞放疗及化疗后细胞的增殖情况。结果: ①AG490在体外低氧条件下能够有效抑制Hep-2细胞及稳定转染HIF-1αshRNA的Hep-2(Hep-2HIF-1α-/-)细胞的生长(P<0.05);②抑制Stat3表达后HIF-1α的表达下调(P<0.05);③联合阻断HIF-1α和Stat3信号通路后能增强喉癌Hep-2细胞对放化疗的敏感性。结论: 联合阻断HIF-1α和STAT3信号通路较单独阻断HIF-1α或STAT3信号通路能进一步增强喉癌Hep-2细胞对放化疗的敏感性。在有效阻断HIF-1α直接信号通路的同时封闭STAT3旁侧调节通路,有助于进一步提高头颈鳞状细胞癌肿瘤细胞对放化疗的敏感性,并为减少治疗抵抗提供一个新的思路和方法。Abstract: Objective: To investigate the influence of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(Stat3) and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) on the resistance effect of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma to radiation therapy and chemotherapy under the hypoxia circumstances.Method: Western blot was used to test the expression of p-Stat3 and HIF-1α in the Hep-2 cells under the hypoxia conditions. MTT assay was used to test the proliferation of Hep-2 cells after radiation therapy and chemotherapy; the Hep-2 cells were suppressed expression of Stat3 and/or HIF-1α.Result: ①AG490 induced significant proliferation inhibition on Hep-2 cells and Hep-2HIF-1α-/- cells in vitro underthe hypoxia environments(P<0.05);② Suppressing expression of Stat3 reduced the expression of HIF-1α protein(P<0.05);③Combined inhibition of Stat3 and HIF-1αenhanced radio-and chemo-sensitivity in laryngeal squamous carcinoma cells under hypoxia.Conclusion: Combined inhibition of Stat3 and HIF-1α can further enhance radio- and chemo-sensitivity in laryngeal squamous carcinoma cells under hypixia compare than inhibiting Stat3 or HIF-1α alone. Effectively blocking of HIF-1α pathway and suppressing the expression of Stat3, would be an effective method to enhance radio- and chemo-sensitivity in laryngeal squamous carcinoma cells, which provides a new thought to reduce the resistance to treatment.
