Silymarin suppresses proliferation and PD-L1 expression in colorectal cancer cells and increases inflammatory CD8+ cells in tumor-bearing mice
Introduction
Silymarin as an herbal medicine has shown anticancer effects on tumor cells, while having low toxicity in normal cells. In this study, the effects of Silymarin on proliferation and apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells and its impact on immune response against cancer cells were evaluated in vitro and in vivo.
Methods and materials
The effect of Silymarin on CT-26 and Caco-2 cells proliferation and apoptosis were demonstrated by MTT assay and PI staining. A subcutaneous tumor of colorectal cancer was developed. Silymarin and Doxorubicin were administrated by intravenous injection. qRT-PCR analyses was performed on blood samples and tumor tissues. Spleen tissue was used to evaluate CD8+ T cell immune responses. Histological study was carried out on tumor tissues.
Results
Silymarin showed anti-proliferative effects on CT-26 and Caco-2 cells. The markers of immunogenic cell death (Calreticulin exposure, ATP secretion, and HMGB1 secretion) significantly increased in both cell lines in the presence of silymarin. The expression of genes related to cell proliferation particularly β-Catenin and Cycline D1, and also anti-apoptotic ones such as Bcl-2 significantly reduced in mice treated with Silymarin while the expression of pro-apoptotic Bax increased. The RNA level of PD-L1 decreased in tumor tissues exposed by Silymarin. Moreover, the number of CTLs increased in the spleen of mice treated with Silymarin in comparison with untreated mice. Decreased tumor size and also survival of colorectal cancer cells in Silymarin-treated mice were observed in histological analysis.
Conclusion
Silymarin treatment showed a suppressive role on colorectal cancer cells almost as much as Doxorubicin. Our study indicated that having a low toxicity profile, cost-effectiveness, and availability of raw materials, plant-derived Silymarin can be a good candidate for further investigation to treat CRC.
期刊介绍：
Clinics and Research in Hepatology and Gastroenterology publishes high-quality original research papers in the field of hepatology and gastroenterology. The editors put the accent on rapid communication of new research and clinical developments and so called "hot topic" issues. Following a clear Editorial line, besides original articles and case reports, each issue features editorials, commentaries and reviews. The journal encourages research and discussion between all those involved in the specialty on an international level. All articles are peer reviewed by international experts, the articles in press are online and indexed in the international databases (Current Contents, Pubmed, Scopus, Science Direct).
Clinics and Research in Hepatology and Gastroenterology is a subscription journal (with optional open access), which allows you to publish your research without any cost to you (unless you proactively chose the open access option). Your article will be available to all researchers around the globe whose institution has a subscription to the journal.
