Synthetic Dibenzoxanthene Derivatives Induce Apoptosis Through Mitochondrial Pathway in Human Hepatocellular Cancer Cells

A new series of dibenzoxanthenes 4a–4f were synthesized through the nucleophilic substitution and characterized by NMR and MS spectra. Their antitumor activity was screened by MTT assay. Compounds (except 4b and 4c) displayed strong growth inhibitory effects against chosen five tumor cells under light irradiation. The molecular mechanism of compound-induced cell apoptosis was investigated by AO/EB staining, comet assay, DCFH-DA, JC-1 fluorescent probe, and western blotting. Compounds induced the apoptosis of HepG2 cells and DNA damage. Location assay showed that compounds entered the nucleus of tumor cells. Furthermore, it was found that compounds induced loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, acceleration of ROS production, and activation of caspse-3, caspase-7, and caspase-9 proteins. Compounds upregulated the expression of pro-apoptotic Bim and Bax and downregulated the expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl-xl and Bcl-2. These results indicated that compounds induced the apoptosis of HepG2 cells through ROS-mediated mitochondrial pathway. The induction of apoptosis by dibenzoxanthenes may provide an important mechanism for their cancer chemopreventive function.     

Involvement of mitochondria-caspase pathway in Hemoporfin-mediated cell death

Hemoporfin is a novel second-generation porphyrin-related photosensitizer for ovarian cancer photodynamic treatment (PDT). The purpose of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms of Hemoporfin-mediated photocytotoxicity. Human epithelial ovarian cancer cell line 3AO was incubated with different concentrations of Hemoporfin, and phototoxic effects of Hemoporfin on cells were determined using a Cell Viability Analyzer. Apoptosis or necrosis was determined by flow cytometry analysis using the Annexin V-FITC apoptosis kit. Cellular caspase activation was determined using the fluorescent assay kit for caspase-3 and caspase-9. Rhodamine123 was used as a mitochondrial probe and Lucifer Yellow as a lysosomal probe to investigate the intracellular localization of Hemoporfin in 3AO cancer cells. We demonstrated that both high-dose (30 microg mL(-1)) and low-dose (3 microg mL(-1)) Hemoporfin significantly reduced the viability of ovarian cancer cell 3AO with light illumination, and the photocytotoxicity was dose-dependent (P < 0.01). Using a mitochondrial fluorescence probe, we demonstrated a distinct mitochondrial aggregation in 3AO cells with a low concentration of Hemoporfin. Loss of mitochondrial membrane potential was detected as early as 1 h after Hemoporfin-mediated PDT. PDT with low-dose Hemoporfin predominantly induced apoptosis but not necrosis, and both caspase-3 and caspase-9 were activated. Based on our results, mitochondria play an important role in the Hemoporfin-induced apoptosis, and mitochondria membrane potential loss initiated apoptosis via the activation of caspases. Understanding the mechanisms involved in PDT-mediated apoptosis may improve its therapeutic efficacy and facilitate its transition into the clinic.
