[Abstract]
Objective To investigate the impacts of brusatol on tumor growth and immune function of H22 hepatoma bearing mice by regulating the cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate synthase-stimulator of interferon gene (STING) signal pathway. Methods The H22 tumor-bearing mice model was established by subcutaneous inoculation of H22 in the left forearm armpit. They were randomly grouped into model group, brusatol low, medium, high dose (0.916, 1.832, and 3.664 mg·kg-1) group, and brusatol (3.664 mg·kg-1) + cGAS inhibitor RU. 521 (5 mg·kg-1) group. After the intervention, the thymus, spleen, and tumor were weighed, and the thymus and spleen indices and tumor inhibition rate of the mice were measured. Detection of T lymphocyte proliferation index using T lymphocyte transformation assay. Detect the ability of macrophages to engulf chicken red blood cells. Collect serum and detect interleukin-2 (IL-2) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF- α) using a kit method. Western blotting method was used to detect the expression levels of cGAS and STING proteins in tumor tissue. Results Compared with the control group, the thymus index, spleen index, phagocytic index, phagocytic percentage, proliferative index, the levels of IL-2 and TNF-α in the model group were significantly decreased (P< 0.05). Compared with the model group, the thymus index, spleen index, phagocytic index, phagocytic percentage, proliferative index, the levels of IL-2 and TNF- α, the expression of cGAS and STING in brusatol low, medium, high dose groups were significantly increased, the tumor weight was significantly decreased, and showed a dose-dependent relationship between groups (P< 0.05). Compared with brusatol high dose group, the thymus index, spleen index, phagocytic index, phagocytic percentage, proliferative index, the levels of IL-2 and TNF-α, the expression of cGAS and STING in brusatol high dose group + RU. 521 group were significantly decreased, the tumor weight were significantly increased (P< 0.05). Conclusion Brusatol can inhibit tumor growth and enhance immune function of H22 hepatoma bearing mice by activating cGAS-STING signal pathway.
