摘要
Objective: To study the effect of perillyl alcohol on the gene expression of human pulmonary adenocarcinoma cells. Methods: Pulmonary adenocarcinoma cells were incubated with perillyl alcohol in dilutions ranging from 0.03% to 0.0003% for 48 hours. Alterations were observed in the cell morphology, and cell viability was quantified using (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assays. Protein synthesis of samples previously targeted with S35 was analyzed using electrophoresis on a polyacrylamide gel. Expression of the proteins p53 and p44/42 was determined using the Western blot method. Results: After 48 hours of incubation, greater numbers of morphological alterations were observed in cells treated with the 0.03% perillyl alcohol dilution than in those treated with perillyl alcohol diluted to 0.003% or further. Treatment with perillyl alcohol dilutions of 0.03%, 0.003% and 0.0003% inhibited cellular viability by 60.17% (p < 0.001), 15.62% (p < 0.001) and 11.53% (p < 0.05), respectively. The results show that 28-kDa, 42-kDa and 110- kDa proteins were induced. No statistically significant effect on p53 expression was observed. In comparison with the expression of α - tubulin, the 0.003% perillyl alcohol dilution induced an increase in p42 phosphorylation and a marked decrease in p44 phosphorylation. Conclusion: The results suggest that there are other, previously undescribed, metabolic pathways for perillyl alcohol effects in human pulmonary adenocarcinoma cells.
