[Abstract]
Objective To study the mechanism of Xihuang Pills on growth inhibition of 4T1 breast cancer cells in mice.Methods The model of 4T1 breast cancer mice was established. After administrating Xihuang Pills at low-, medium-, and high-dose level (0.39, 0.78, and 1.95 g/kg) for two weeks, tumor tissue was weighed, sliced, and homogenized. Tumor cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL staining. The expression of mRNAs in JNK1 and AP-1 in tumor tissue was detected by Real-time quantitative PCR. The expression of JNK1 and AP-1 protein in tumor tissue was detected by immunofluorescence staining and Western Blotting.Results Comparing with model group, the tumor weights of Xihuang Pills group decreased significantly with the increase of doses. TUNEL staining results showed that the number of apoptosis of tumor cells increased with the increase of doses of Xihuang Pills. Real-time PCR results showed that the expression of JNK1 and AP-1 mRNA in tumor tissue increased with the increase of doses of Xihuang Pills. The results of immunofluorescence staining and Western Blotting showed that the expression of JNK1 and AP-1 protein in tumor tissue increased with the increase of doses of Xihuang Pills. The differences in the high, medium and low dose groups were statistically significant (P< 0.05).Conclusion Xihuang Pills significantly inhibit the growth of tumor cells, which mechanism is related to the activation of JNK1/AP-1 signaling pathway, with view to promoting the apoptosis of tumor cells.
