摘要

背景:扑热息痛通过代谢为n -乙酰基-对苯醌亚胺(NAPQI)对肝细胞产生毒性作用,NAPQI通过与细胞谷胱甘肽(GSH)结合解毒。一旦谷胱甘肽被耗尽,NAPQI刺激一系列氧化反应,导致细胞坏死。本研究的目的是寻找一种新的策略,可以选择性地保护正常肝组织,并使肝癌细胞对扑热息痛或其代谢物的毒性作用敏感。这可能会导致肝癌靶向治疗的发展。方法:采用硫代丹- b法观察对乙酰氨基酚和丁硫胺亚砜BSO(一种谷胱甘肽消耗剂)单用和联用对肝癌细胞HepG2和正常大鼠肝细胞的抗增殖作用。流式细胞术检测其对细胞周期调节和诱导凋亡的影响。ELISA法检测前列腺素表达水平。结果:本研究表明,这两种药物单独或联合使用对两种细胞类型都有抗增殖作用。令人惊讶的是,BSO对高浓度(1.75 mM和2 mM)扑热息痛处理的正常肝细胞显示出细胞保护作用。细胞周期分析证实了这一点,记录的亚g1细胞比例减少表明正常肝细胞凋亡减少。前列腺素E2分析显示对乙酰氨基酚对正常和肝癌细胞的不同影响。在正常肝细胞中,PGE2水平显著高于对照组,而在使用扑热息痛治疗后,HepG2细胞的PGE2水平显著降低。结论:对乙酰氨基酚/BSO联合用药对肝癌细胞和正常肝细胞有不同的影响,为肝癌治疗开辟了一种新的有效、选择性的联合用药途径。

Combination of Paracetamol and the Glutathione Depleting Agent Buthionine Sulfoximine Show Differential Effect on Liver Cancer Cells and Normal Hepatocytes
Background: Paracetamol exerts toxic effects on liver cells through its metabolism into N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI), which is detoxified by conjugation with cellular glutathione (GSH). Once GSH is depleted, NAPQI stimulates a range of oxidative reactions that result in cell necrosis. The aim of the present investigation is to find a new strategy that would selectively protect normal hepatic tissues and sensitize liver cancer cells to the toxic effects of paracetamol or its metabolite. This may lead to the development of a targeted therapy for liver cancer. Methods: The anti-proliferative effects of paracetamol and buthionine sulfoximine BSO (a glutathione depleting agent) alone and in combination on the liver cancer cells HepG2 and normal rat hepatocytes were investigated by sulphorhodamine-B assay. Effects on cell cycle regulation and induction of apoptosis were tested by flow cytometry. The level of prostaglandin expression was measured by ELISA. Results: The present study showed that both agents alone or in combination have anti-proliferative effects on both cell types. Surprisingly, BSO showed a cytoprotective effects on normal hepatocytes treated with high concentrations (1.75 and 2 mM) of paracetamol. This was confirmed by cell cycle analysis that recorded decreased fraction of sub-G1 cells indicating reduction of apoptosis in normal hepatocytes. Analysis of prostaglandin E2 revealed differential effects of paracetamol on normal and liver cancer cells. A significant increase in PGE2 level over the control was observed in normal hepatocytes whereas a significant decrease was seen in HepG2 cells after treatment with paracetamol. Conclusion: These results indicate that combination of paracetamol/BSO has differential effects on liver cancer cells and normal hepatocytes, which opens the avenue for a new effective and selective combination for management of liver cancer.
