This study aims to explore the potential inhibition effects of staurosporine isolated from a sp. SNC087 strain obtained from seawater on nasal polyps. Staurosporine possesses antimicrobial and antihypertensive activities. This research focuses on investigating the effects of staurosporine on suppressing the growth and development of nasal polyps and elucidating the underlying mechanisms involved. The experimental design includes in vitro and ex vivo evaluations to assess the inhibition activity and therapeutic potential of staurosporine against nasal polyps. Nasal polyp-derived fibroblasts (NPDFs) were stimulated with TGF-β1 in the presence of staurosporine. The levels of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), collagen type-I (Col-1), fibronectin, and phosphorylated (p)-Smad 2 were investigated using Western blotting. VEGF expression levels were analyzed in nasal polyp organ cultures treated with staurosporine. TGF-β1 stimulated the production of Col-1, fibronectin, and α-SMA and was attenuated by staurosporine pretreatment. Furthermore, these inhibitory effects were mediated by modulation of the signaling pathway of Smad 2 in TGF-β1-induced NPDFs. Staurosporine also inhibits the production of VEGF in ex vivo NP tissues. The findings from this study will contribute to a better understanding of staurosporine's role in nasal polyp management and provide insights into its mechanisms of action.
本研究旨在探索来源于海水 sp. SNC087 菌株的星形孢菌素对鼻息肉的潜在抑制作用。星形孢菌素具有抗菌和降压活性。本研究重点研究星形孢菌素抑制鼻息肉生长和发育的作用,并阐明其相关机制。实验设计包括体外和离体评估,以评估星形孢菌素对鼻息肉的抑制活性和治疗潜力。鼻息肉衍生成纤维细胞(NPDFs)在存在星形孢菌素的情况下用 TGF-β1 刺激。使用 Western blot 法检测α-平滑肌肌动蛋白(α-SMA)、I 型胶原(Col-1)、纤维连接蛋白和磷酸化(p)-Smad 2 的水平。用星形孢菌素处理鼻息肉器官培养物以分析 VEGF 表达水平。TGF-β1 刺激 Col-1、纤维连接蛋白和 α-SMA 的产生,星形孢菌素预处理可减弱其产生。此外,这些抑制作用是通过调节 TGF-β1 诱导的 NPDFs 中 Smad 2 信号通路来介导的。星形孢菌素还抑制离体 NP 组织中 VEGF 的产生。本研究的结果将有助于更好地了解星形孢菌素在鼻息肉管理中的作用,并深入了解其作用机制。
