This study was designed to investigate the mechanism of the synergistic anticancer effect of Astragalus membranaceus (AM) and Adenophora triphylla var. japonica (AT) in H1299 human lung carcinoma cells. A combined treatment of ethanol extract of AM (EAM) and AT (EAT) explosively increased the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in H1299 cells compared to the single treatment of each of them. Co-treatment of N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) with EAM and EAT markedly enhanced the cell viability and suppressed apoptosis in H1299 cells, suggesting that ROS generation contributed to the anticancer effect of EAM and EAT. Interestingly, the combined treatment of EAM and EAT down-regulated p-AKT in H1299 cells, which was abrogated by NAC treatment. These results clearly indicated that ROS generation mediated the inactivation of AKT. Co-treatment of LY294002 with EAM and EAT significantly reduced the cell viability at a concentration which EAM and EAT didn't show any cytotoxicity. In addition, the recovery of cell viability by co-treatment of NAC with EAM and EAT was quite reversed by LY294002 treatment, which confirmed that the inactivation of AKT played a pivotal role in ROS-mediated apoptosis. Taken together, our results demonstrated that the synergistic anticancer effect of EAM and EAT was mediated by ROS generation and inactivation of AKT. We provide a valuable preclinical data for the development of more effective combination of AM and AT to treat lung cancer.

본 연구에서는 흰깨의 에탄올 추출물이 폐암세포의 성장, 이동, 부착 등에 미치는 영향을 인체유래 폐암 세포주인 H1299 세포를 이용하여 in vitro 수준에서 조사하고, 이러한 흰깨 추출물의 효과를 흰깨의 주요 활성 성분 중 하나인 ${\beta}-sitosterol$의 효과와 비교하고자 하였다. 흰깨 추출물 ($150{\sim}600{\mu}g/mL$)과 ${\beta}-sitosterol$ ($3.125{\sim}25{\mu}M$)은 H1299 세포의 성장을 각각 대조구 대비 51.5~82.6%와 27.5~49.0%로 억제하는 농도 의존적 활성을 나타내었고, 이러한 흰깨 추출물과 ${\beta}-sitosterol$의 세포 성장 억제 활성은 부분적으로 apoptosis 유도 활성에서 기인되는 것으로 생각된다. 흰깨 추출물($150{\sim}600{\mu}g/mL$)은 H1299 세포의 이동과 부착을 억제하는 활성을 나타내지 않은 반면에 ${\beta}-sitosterol$은 $3.125{\sim}25{\mu}M$ 농도에서 세포 이동을 대조구 대비 80.8~86.2%로, $6.25{\sim}25{\mu}M$ 농도에서 세포 부착을 대조구 대비 21.5~37.4%로 각각 억제하는 활성을 나타내었다. 이상의 연구 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 H1299 폐암세포의 성장, 이동, 부착 등을 억제하는 데에는 흰깨의 추출물보다는 단일성분인 ${\beta}-sitosterol$이 더 효과적인 것으로 생각된다. 앞으로 이와 같은 연구 결과가 in vivo 수준에서 재현되는지 여부를 검증하고 관련 기전을 탐색하는 것이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

본 연구에서는 들깨 에탄올 추출물의 항산화 성분 함량 및 활성을 측정하고 들깨 추출물이 암세포의 주요 특징인 성장, colony 형성, 이동, 부착성 등에 미치는 영향을 in vitro 수준에서 분석하고자 하였다. 들깨의 총 폴리페놀 함량과 총 플라보노이드 함량은 각각 222.6 mg gallic acid equivalent/100 g과 285.7 mg quercetin equivalent/100 g으로 측정되었다. 들깨 추출물($87.5{\sim}350{\mu}g/mL$)의 DPPH radical 소거 활성은 24~45%, 철 환원력은 28~62%였다. 한편 $87.5{\sim}350{\mu}g/mL$ 농도의 들깨 추출물은 HCT116 대장암 세포와 H1299 폐암 세포의 성장을 18~94% 억제하는 농도 의존적 활성이 있었다. 또한 $175{\mu}g/mL$ 농도의 들깨 추출물은 HCT116과 H1299 세포에서 모두 colony 형성을 완전히 억제하는 활성이 있었다. 또한 들깨 추출물은 $87.5{\sim}350{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 H1299 세포의 이동을 30~37% 억제하였고, 가장 높은 농도인 $350{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서는 HCT116과 H1299 세포의 부착을 14~16% 억제하였다. 이상의 결과를 통하여 들깨 추출물은 항산화 활성 및 암세포의 주요 특징을 억제하는 활성을 가지는 것으로 생각되며, 향후 이러한 연구 결과가 in vivo 수준에서 재현되는지 여부와 본 활성과 관련된 세부작용기전 또한 규명되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

Recently, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been found to be useful in the chemoprevention of colon cancer. To investigate whether indomethacin, an NSAIDs, induces apoptosis and thus assess the possibility of its application in the chemoprevention of human lung cancer, we have performed MTT assay, TUNEL assay, DAPI staining, and flow cytometric analysis using human lung carcinoma cell line NCI-H1299. Through morphological and biochemical analyses, it was demonstrated that NCI-H1299 cells treated with indomethacin (0.5 mM) exhibit classical apoptotic features. These results suggest that indomethacin induces apoptosis in NCI-H1299 cells and that NSAIDs, including indomethacin, may be a useful tool for the chemoprevention of human lung cancer.

Cyclamen coum is a traditional medicinal plant in the Turkey. Its anticancer properties and whether cyclamen extract induces any cytotoxicity in solid cancer cell lines have not been thoroughly investigated previously. Therefore we examined cytotoxic effects on cervical cells; HeLa and non small cell lung cancer cell, H1299, lines; Cyclamen extract induced cellular death of both HeLa and H1299 cells in a dose dependent manner. We also analyzed the capacity of cyclamen extract to induce apoptosis by the TUNEL method. Here, for the first time we report that the extract of Cyclamen coum, an endemic plant for Turkey, Bulgaria, Georgia and the Middle East can induce cytotoxicity via apoptosis in HeLa and H1299 cells. These results imply that cyclamen extract can be further analyzed to potentially find novel anticancer compounds.

This study was designed to investigate the anti-tumor effects of fresh carrot juice, methanol-extracts, and $\beta$-carotene on the human lung cancer cell line NCI-H1299. The anti-tumor effect was evaluated by the MTT assay in vitro. The anti-tumor effect of fresh carrot juice against NCI-H1299 lasted up to 96 hours after exposure; the viability rate of lung cancer cells decreased below 50% after 48 hours, and further after 72 hours. The strongest propagation inhibition effect of fresh carrot juice was shown at the concentration of 2000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ after 72 hours and the viability rates was 45.98% even at the concentration of 25 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$. The value of $IC_{50}$/ was 23.1$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ when the elapsed time was 72 hours. The viability rate of methanol-extract was 52.4% under the concentration of 2000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ and the elapsed time of 72 hours. Under the concentration of 1000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ and the elapsed time of 48 hours, $\beta$ -carotene decreased the viability rate to 29.99%. The $IC_{50}$/ value of $\beta$-carotene was 691.2$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ after 72 hours. According to the above results, the anti-tumor effect arose in NCI-H1299 when the concentration of the fresh carrot juice or the $\beta$-carotene was more than 25 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ or 1000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$, respectively. On the other hand, the methanol-extracts showed a weak anti-tumor effect even at a concentration as high as 2000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$.

연구 방법 : Nonsteroidal anti -inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)는 대장앙의 항암 예방약제로 사용되고 었다 지속적으로 NSAIDs를 복용하면 대장암에 걸릴 위험도가 40-50% 감소되는 것으로 알려져 있다. NSAIDs가 대장암에서 종양의 크기를 감소시키는 것에 대한 정확한 기전은 알려져 있지 않으나, 일부 연구자들은 NSAIDs를 고농도로 투여하였을 때 세포 주기를 조절하는 유전자 발현의 변형과 세포고사의 유도로 설명하고 있다. 그러나 폐암에서 NSAIDs의 암 예방효과에 대해 확립 된 바 없어, 저자들은 NCI-H1299 세포주에서 NSAIDs가 세포고사를 유도하는지 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 세포 독성은 MTT 방법으로 측정하였고, 세포고사를 알아보기 위해 유세포 분석과 핵산 염색을 시행하였다. 세포고사의 기전을 알아보기 위해 caspase family의 활성을 측정하였고, 세포고사의 마지막 단계인 PARP와 ICAD의 분절을 westem blot으로 확인하였다. 결 과 : NCI-H1299 세포에서 NaSaL 처리 시 생존율이 농도와 시간에 의존적으로 유의하게 감소하였고, 생존율의 감소는 세포주기에서 $subG_0/G_1$의 증가와 핵산 염색시 핵의 분절의 관찰로서 세포고사가 일어남을 관찰하였다. 10 mM NaSaL 처리 후 caspase-3 protease의 활성은 24시간에 증가하여 30시간에 최고에 이르고 감소하였으나 caspase-6, 8, 9 proteases의 활성은 의미 있는 증가가 없었다. PARP와 ICAD의 분절은 농도와 시간 의존적으로 증가하였다. 결 론 : NCI-H1299 폐암 세포주에서 NaSaL은 caspase-3 protease의 활성을 통하여 유도되었다.

Mammalian mediator (MED) is a multi-protein coactivator that has been identified by several research goups. The involvement of the MED complex subunit 19 (MED 19) in the metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma cell line (H1299), which expresses the MED 19 subunit, was here investigated. When MED 19 expression was decreased by RNA interference H1299 cells demonstrated reduced clone formation, arrest in the S phase of the cell cycle, and lowered metastatic capacity. Thus, MED 19 appears to play important roles in the biological behavior of non-small cell lung carcinoma cells. These findings may be important for the development of novel lung carcinoma treatments.

The anti-cancer effects of Astragalus membranaceus (AM) and Adenophora triphylla var. japonica (AT) have been described. Each of their effects mainly focused on the immunopotentiating and apoptosis inducing-ability in several cancer cell lines. Although the combination of AM and AT is occasionally used in Chinese medicine to treat lung cancers, their synergistic effect has not been proved yet. This study was designed to verify whether AM combined with AT exhibits a synergistic anti-cancer effect in H1299 human lung carcinoma cells. The ethanol extracts of AM (EAM) and AT (EAT) showed only slight cytotoxicity in H1299 cells when treated alone. However, the combination of EAM and EAT markedly suppressed the cell growth measured by MTT assay and trypan blue counting assay. In addition, co-treatment of EAM with EAT significantly reduced the colony-forming ability compared with single treatment of EAM or EAT in H1299 cells. We demonstrated that the synergistic effect of AM and AT was related with apoptosis induction proved by an accumulation of chromatin condensation, annexin V-positive cells, sub-G1 phase population, and cleaved-PARP expression, which were not observed by single treatment of EAM or EAT. In conclusion, the combination of EAM and EAT exhibited superior anti-cancer activity in H1299 cells than single treatment of EAM or EAT. We suggest that EAM combined with EAT might be a novel therapeutic option for lung cancer patients, and provide a reference for the development of more effective combination of Chinese herbs to treat lung cancer.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Perilla frutescens Britton leaves are a commonly consumed vegetable in different Asian countries including Korea. Cancer is a major cause of human death worldwide. The aim of the current study was to investigate the inhibitory effects of ethanol extract of perilla leaf (PLE) against important characteristics of cancer cells, including unrestricted growth, resisted apoptosis, and activated metastasis, using human cancer cells. MATERIALS/METHODS: Two human cancer cell lines were used in this study, HCT116 colorectal carcinoma cells and H1299 non-small cell lung carcinoma cells. Assays using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide were performed for measurement of cell growth. Soft agar and wound healing assays were performed to determine colony formation and cell migration, respectively. Nuclear staining and cell cycle analysis were performed for assessment of apoptosis. Fibronectin-coated plates were used to determine cell adhesion. RESULTS: Treatment of HCT116 and H1299 cells with PLE resulted in dose-dependent inhibition of growth by 52-92% (at the concentrations of 87.5, 175, and $350{\mu}g/ml$) and completely abolished the colony formation in soft agar (at the concentration of $350{\mu}g/ml$). Treatment with PLE at the $350{\mu}g/ml$ concentration resulted in change of the nucleus morphology and significantly increased sub-G1 cell population in both cells, indicating its apoptosis-inducing activity. PLE at the concentration range of 87.5 to $350{\mu}g/ml$ was also effective in inhibiting the migration of H1299 cells (by 52-58%) and adhesion of both HCT116 and H1299 cells (by 25-46%). CONCLUSIONS: These results indicate that PLE exerts anti-cancer activities against colon and lung cancers in vitro. Further studies are needed in order to determine whether similar effects are reproduced in vivo.
