As a typical product in the Miallard reaction, research on the quantitative detection of furosine is abundant, while its bioactivities and toxic effects are still unclear. Our own work recently demonstrated the induction of furosine on apoptosis in HepG2 cells, while the related mechanism remained elusive. In this study, the effects of furosine on cell viability and apoptosis were detected to select the proper dosage, and transcriptomics detection and data analysis were performed to screen out the special genes. Additionally, SiRNA fragments of the selected genes were designed and transfected into HepG2 cells to validate the role of these genes in inducing apoptosis. Results showed that furosine inhibited cell viability and induced cell apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner, as well as activated expressions of the selected genes STAT1 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 1), STAT2 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 2), UBA7 (ubiquitin-like modifier activating enzyme 7), and UBE2L6 (ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2L6), which significantly affected downstream apoptosis factors Caspase-3 (cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-3), Bcl-2 (B-cell lymphoma gene-2), Bax (BCL2-Associated gene X), and Caspase-9 (cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-9). For the first time, we revealed furosine induced apoptosis through two transcriptional regulators (STAT1 and STAT2) and two ubiquitination-related enzymes (UBA7 and UBE2L6).
