Induced Apoptosis

Due to the poor prognosis of metastatic osteosarcoma, chemotherapy is usually employed in the adjuvant situation to improve the prognosis and the chances of long-term survival. 4-[3,5-Bis(2-chlorobenzylidene)-4-oxo-piperidine-1-yl]-4-oxo-2-butenoic acid (CLEFMA) is a synthetic analog of curcumin and possesses anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties. To further obtain information regarding the apoptotic pathway induced by CLEFMA in osteosarcoma cells, microculture tetrazolium assay, annexin V-FITC/PI apoptosis staining assay, human apoptosis array, and Western blotting were employed. CLEFMA dose-dependently decreased the cell viabilities of human osteosarcoma U2OS and HOS cells and significantly induced apoptosis in human osteosarcoma cells. In addition to the effector caspase 3, CLEFMA significantly activated both extrinsic caspase 8 and intrinsic caspase 9 initiators. Moreover, CLEFMA increased the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases (ERK)1/2, c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK)1/2 and p38. Using inhibitors of JNK (JNK-in-8) and p38 (SB203580), CLEFMA’s increases of cleaved caspases 3, 8, and 9 could be expectedly suppressed, but they could not be affected by co-treatment with the ERK inhibitor (U0126). Conclusively, CLEFMA activates both extrinsic and intrinsic apoptotic pathways in human osteosarcoma cells through JNK and p38 signaling. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms responsible for CLEFMA’s apoptotic effects on human osteosarcoma cells.

Oleuropein (OLEU) is the most distinguished phenolic compound found in olive fruit and the leaves of Olea europaea L., with several pharmacological properties, including anti-cancer actions. Adriamycin (ADR) is an anthracycline widely used as a chemotherapeutic agent, although it presents significant side effects. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of oleuropein alone (20 μg/mL) and in co-treatment with ADR (50 nM), in MG-63 human osteosarcoma cells. Therefore, cellular and molecular techniques, such as MTT assay, flow cytometry, real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), western blot and Elisa method, as well as Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, were applied to unveil changes in the signal transduction pathways involved in osteosarcoma cells survival. The observed alterations in gene, protein and metabolite levels denote that OLEU not only inhibits MG-63 cells proliferation and potentiates ADR’s cytotoxicity, but also exerts its action, at least in part, through the induction of autophagy.
