A novel sesquiterpenoid dimer parviflorene F induces apoptosis by up-regulating the expression of TRAIL-R2 and a caspase-dependent mechanism
چکیده انگلیسی

Parviflorene F (1), a novel sesquiterpenoid dimer isolated from Curcuma parviflora Wall, is a cytotoxic compound. In this study, we examined the mechanism of its cytotoxic effect in HeLa cells. Treatment with 1enhanced the mRNA and protein expression of TRAIL-R2 (tumor necrosis factor α-related apoptosis inducing ligand receptor 2). Apoptosis was induced by 1 as revealed by the distribution of DNA and Annexin V/PI staining using flow cytometry. In addition, 1-induced apoptosis was inhibited by human recombinant TRAIL-R2/Fc chimera protein, TRAIL-neutralizing fusion protein. Also, we found that 1 induced the activation of caspase-8, caspase-9, and caspase-3, indicating that the cytotoxic effect of 1 is correlated with apoptosis by a caspase-dependent mechanism through TRAIL-R2. In addition, 1 enhanced TRAIL-induced cell death against HeLa and TRAIL-resistant DLD1 cells. Taken together, up-regulation of TRAIL-R2 by 1 may contribute to sensitization of TRAIL-induced cell death.
