Importance of ROS-mediated autophagy in determining apoptotic cell death induced by physapubescin B

Abstract: Physapubescin B, a steroidal compound extracted from the plant Physalis pubescens L. (Solanaceae), has been reported to possess anti-cancer potential, whereas the molecular mechanism remains elusive. In this study, we first demonstrated that physapubescin B induced autophagy in human cancer cells based on the evidence that physapubescin B increased lipidation of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) as well as number of GFP-LC3 puncta. We further examined the molecular mechanisms and found that … Show more

“…Mst1, the downstream effector of the Hippo signalling pathway, is originally identified as the apoptotic trigger in several diseases such as post-infarction cardiac remodelling [59], breast cancer [60], acute brain injury [61] and liver fibrosis [62]. Notably, the action of Mst1 in kidney damage has not yet been explained.…”

“…For quantification, the numbers of TUNEL‐positive cells in the infarcted areas or CMECs were calculated by counting at least 5 random separate fields as the ratio of the experimental samples to the control samples. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is a fairly stable enzyme that is released from the cytosol into the culture medium as a consequence of cellular membrane breakage . The level of LDH released was expressed as a percentage of the control (normal cells) group.…”

“…The number of 5-(and-6)-chloromethyl-2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (CM-H 2 DCFDA)-positive cells after treatment with olaparib was compared with diluent-treated control cells (Fig. 17 NAC treatment blocked LC3 conversion and ROS generation, as confirmed by CM-H 2 DCFDA fluorescence intensity by flow cytometry and reduced LC3I to LC3II conversion (Fig. The percentage of CM-H 2 DCFDA-positive cells increased after treatment with olaparib for 24 or 48 hours (*P < .05).…”
