Abstract

In this study, we investigated the anticancer activity of methyl gallate (MG), which is the major biologically active component of Galla Rhois, in RC-58T/h/SA#4 human prostate cancer cells. MG inhibited cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Cell death induced by MG increased the population of cells in sub-G1 phase, formation of apoptotic bodies, nuclear condensation, and DNA fragmentation. Apoptosis induced by MG was associated with activation of initiator caspases-8 and -9 as well as effector caspase-3. Endocrine disruptors such as dioxin and bisphenol A increased growth of RC-58T/h/SA#4 cells in charcoal-treated FBS (cFBS) medium. Cell proliferation was highest upon treatment with 1 nM and $0.1{\mu}M$ dioxin and bisphenol A, respectively. MG also dose-dependently inhibited cell proliferation in RC-58T/h/SA#4 cells treated with endocrine disruptors. These results indicate that MG exerts anticancer effects on RC-58T/h/SA#4 primary human prostate cancer cells.

본 연구에서는 MG의 RC-58T/h/SA#4 인체 전립선 암세포에 대한 증식 억제 및 apoptosis 유도효과에 대하여 확인하였다. MG는 RC-58T/h/SA#4 세포의 증식을 농도 의존적으로 억제하였다. 이러한 MG에 의한 RC-58T/h/SA#4 세포의 사멸이 apoptosis에 의해 일어나는지를 sub-G1 함량 측정 및 Hoechst 33258 염색을 이용하여 확인하였다. 그 결과 MG를 처리한 군의 sub-G1의 함량이 대조군에 비하여 증가하였으며, methyl gallate를 처리한 군에서 핵의 응축과 apoptotic body 형성을 Hoechst 33258 염색을 통하여 관찰할 수 있었다. 또한 RC-58T/h/SA#4 세포에서 MG가 유도하는 apoptosis의 기전을 확인하기 위하여 다양한 실험을 실시하였다. MG는 DNA의 분절량 증가 및 caspase 활성을 유도하였으며, 활성화된 caspase-8, -9 및 -3에 의해 PARP와 Bid 단백질의 분절을 발현시켰으며, Bcl-2 family 단백질의 발현에 영향을 미쳐 apoptosis를 유도하였음을 확인하였다. 한편 환경호르몬인 dioxin과 bisphenol A를 다양한 농도로 처리한 결과 각각 1 nM, $0.1{\mu}M$ 농도에서 가장 높은 전립선 암세포 과다증식을 유도하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 MG를 농도별로 처리한 결과 환경호르몬에 의해 유도된 인체 전립선 암세포의 증식을 농도 의존적으로 억제시켰다. 본 연구 결과 MG는 RC-58T/h/SA#4 전립선 암세포에서 apoptosis 유도를 통한 암세포 성장 억제효과를 가지고 있음을 확인하였으며, 환경호르몬에 의해 유발될 수 있는 암에 대해서도 유사한 보호효과를 가지고 있음을 증명하였다.
