Ampelopsin Inhibits Cell Viability and Metastasis in Renal Cell Carcinoma by Negatively Regulating the PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway

Background. Previous studies have shown that Ampelopsin has an inhibitory effect on human tumors. However, the effect of Ampelopsin on renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is rarely reported. Therefore, this study aims to explain the role of Ampelopsin in RCC. Methods. Different concentrations of Ampelopsin (...

Sumario:Background. Previous studies have shown that Ampelopsin has an inhibitory effect on human tumors. However, the effect of Ampelopsin on renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is rarely reported. Therefore, this study aims to explain the role of Ampelopsin in RCC. Methods. Different concentrations of Ampelopsin (0, 10, 25, 50, and 100 μM) were used to treat 786-O cells. Cell viability was detected by MTT assay, colony formation assay, and flow cytometry assay. Transwell assay and Wound healing assay were used to detect cell migration and invasion. Western blot analysis was applied to detect protein expression. Results. Ampelopsin inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in RCC. And Ampelopsin can inhibit cell migration and invasion in RCC. All these results changed in a dose-dependent manner. Ampelopsin (100 uM) had the strongest inhibitory effect on cell viability and metastasis. In addition, Ampelopsin negatively regulated the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in RCC cells. Moreover, Ampelopsin was only cytotoxic to RCC cells. Conclusion. Ampelopsin inhibits cell viability and metastasis in RCC by negatively regulating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.
