The present study is to explore the anticancer effect of loonamycin (LM) in vitro and in vivo, and investigate the underlying mechanism with combined multi-omics. LM exhibited anticancer activity in human triple negative breast cancer cells by promoting cell apoptosis. LM administration inhibited the growth of MDA-MB-468 tumors in a murine xenograft model of breast cancer. Mechanistic studies suggested that LM could inhibit the topoisomerase I in a dose-dependent manner in vitro experiments. Combined with the transcriptomics and proteomic analysis, LM has a significant effect on O-glycan, p53-related signal pathway and EGFR/PI3K/AKT/mTOR signal pathway in enrichment of the KEGG pathway. The GSEA data also suggests that the TNBC cells treated with LM may be regulated by p53, O-glycan and EGFR/PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Taken together, our findings predicted that LM may target p53 and EGFR/PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway, inhibiting topoisomerase to exhibit its anticancer effect.
本研究旨在探讨洛那霉素(LM)在体外和体内的抗癌作用,并结合多组学研究探讨其潜在机制。LM 通过促进细胞凋亡在人三阴性乳腺癌细胞中表现出抗癌活性。LM 给药抑制了乳腺癌小鼠异种移植模型中 MDA-MB-468 肿瘤的生长。机制研究表明,LM 在体外实验中可呈剂量依赖性抑制拓扑异构酶 I。结合转录组学和蛋白质组学分析,LM 对富集的 KEGG 途径中的 O-聚糖、p53 相关信号通路和 EGFR/PI3K/AKT/mTOR 信号通路有显著影响。GSEA 数据还表明,用 LM 处理的 TNBC 细胞可能受 p53、O-聚糖和 EGFR/PI3K/AKT/mTOR 信号通路的调控。综上所述,我们的研究结果表明,LM 可能靶向 p53 和 EGFR/PI3K/AKT/mTOR 信号通路,抑制拓扑异构酶以发挥其抗癌作用。
