عنوان انگلیسی Apoptosis Induction with Combined Use of Cisplatin and Fisetin in Cisplatin-resistance A2780 Ovarian Cancer Cells
چکیده انگلیسی مقاله Background: Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death caused by genital cancers. One of the most common treatments for this type of cancer is chemotherapy by cisplatin, which induces apoptosis in cancer cells. Apoptosis is a type of physiological cell death. Cisplatin chemotherapy usually has several side effects and cellular resistance to cisplatin is a common incidence. In order to overcome these problems, the use of combination therapies using natural substances has been considered. Fisetin is a flavonoid with anti-cancer activity which induces apoptosis. In this study, the apoptosis induced by cisplatin along with Fisetin in cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cell line (A2780) was investigated. Methods: In the present experimental study, the effect of combined use of Fisetin and cisplatin on ovarian cancer cell lines (A2780) was investigated by using MTT assay. Cell death was also determined by DAPI, acridine orange/propidium iodide, and Annexin/PI assay. Apoptotic gene expression of Bax, BCL-2, caspase 3, and caspase 9 was also assessed by real time PCR. Results: The results of MTT assay indicated that the combined treatment of Fisetin and cisplatin effectively inhibits proliferation of A2780 cells. The results of DAPI staining showed that fragmentation of chromatin in cells occurred in the combined treatment. Acridine orange-propidium iodide staining and Annexin/PI staining showed an increase in the rate of apoptotic cells in cells under combined treatment. The results of the study regarding changes in gene expression also indicated that Bax pro-apoptotic gene expression and BCL-2 anti-apoptotic gene expression increased in cells under treatment; moreover, gene expression of caspases 3 and 9 significantly increased as well. Conclusion: According to the findings of this study, the combined use of cisplatin and Fisetin increases the induction of apoptosis in cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells (A2780); therefore, the combined use of cisplatin and Fisetin can be considered a promising strategy in the treatment of ovarian cancer.
