Follicular thyroid cancer (FTC) is a highly aggressive type of endocrine malignancy. It is necessary to investigate the mechanisms of tumorigenesis and therapeutic pathways in patients with FTC. Haem oxygenase-1 (HO-1) can regulate oxidative stress and the occurrence of tumors and diseases. In this study, we discovered that HO-1 was abnormally overexpressed in FTC compared with adjacent tissues. However, the HO-1 overexpression was demonstrated to decrease cell viability and to potentially activate the ferroptosis signalling pathway. Ferroptosis is a newly identified form of oxidative cell death and is currently being targeted as a new cancer treatment. Tumorigenesis is significantly inhibited by curcumin. The present study shows that curcumin inhibits the growth of FTC by increasing the HO-1 expression, further activating the ferroptosis pathway. This study demonstrates that the HO-1-ferroptosis signalling pathway might play an important role in FTC tumorigenesis, and that curcumin inhibits the growth of FTC cells by affecting this pathway.
滤泡性甲状腺癌(FTC)是一种高度侵袭性的内分泌恶性肿瘤。有必要研究 FTC 患者的肿瘤发生机制和治疗途径。血红素加氧酶-1(HO-1)可以调节氧化应激和肿瘤及疾病的发生。在本研究中,我们发现与相邻组织相比,FTC 中 HO-1 异常过表达。然而,HO-1 的过表达被证明会降低细胞活力,并可能激活铁死亡信号通路。铁死亡是一种新发现的氧化细胞死亡形式,目前正被作为一种新的癌症治疗方法进行研究。姜黄素显著抑制肿瘤的发生。本研究表明,姜黄素通过增加 HO-1 的表达,进一步激活铁死亡途径,抑制 FTC 的生长。本研究表明,HO-1-铁死亡信号通路可能在 FTC 的肿瘤发生中起重要作用,而姜黄素通过影响该通路抑制 FTC 细胞的生长。
