[Abstract]
Objective To investigate the mechanism by which scutellarin inhibits the proliferation and metastasis of ovarian cancer(OC)cells through the regulation of M2-like polarization of tumor-associated macrophages(TAMs). Methods The human monocyte cell line THP-1 was induced to differentiate into M2-like macrophages, generating TAMs,using phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate(PMA)and interleukin-4(IL-4). The effects of various concentrations(0,40,80,160,240 μmol/L)of scutellarin on the viability of TAMs and the human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3 were assessed using the CCK-8 assay. Western Blot analysis was employed to examine the protein expression levels of polarization phenotypes M 1-type markers,including inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)and cluster of differentiation 68(CD68),as well as M2-type markers,such as mannose receptor C type 1 (CD206)and hemoglobin scavenger receptor(CD163)in TAMs,following treatment with different concentrations of scutellarin. Human ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells were divided into five groups:control group,TAM group, scutellarin group,scutellarin+TAM group,and scutellarin+lithium chloride(LiCl,an activator of the Wnt/ β-catenin signaling pathway)group. Plate colony formation,Transwell migration,and wound healing assays were performed to evaluate cell proliferation,migration,and invasion capabilities,respectively. Western Blot analysis was used to detect the protein expression levels of M 1 markers(iNOS,CD68),M2 markers(CD206,CD163), and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway-related proteins,including β-catenin,cellular myelocytomatosis virus oncogene(c-myc),and cyclin D 1 in cells from each group. Results Treatment of TAMs with different concentrations of scutellarin did not significantly alter cell viability(P>0.05),but it significantly increased the expression levels of iNOS and CD68(P<0.05)and significantly decreased the expression levels of CD206 and CD163(P<0.05). In SKOV3 cells,scutellarin treatment resulted in a significant,dose-dependent reduction in cell viability(P<0.05). Compared with the control group,the TAM group exhibited significantly lower protein expression levels of iNOS and CD68(P<0.05),while the expression levels of CD206,CD163,β-catenin, c-myc,and cyclin D 1,as well as the number of colony-forming cells,migrated cells,and the wound healing rate,were significantly increased(P<0.05). Compared with the control group,the scutellarin group showed significantly higher protein expression levels of iNOS and CD68(P<0.05)and significantly lower expression levels of CD206,CD163,β-catenin,c-myc,and cyclin D 1,along with a significant reduction in the number of colony-forming cells,migrated cells,and the wound healing rate(P<0.05). Compared with the TAM group,the scutellarin+TAM group demonstrated significantly increased expression of iNOS and CD68(P<0.05)and significantly decreased expression of CD206,CD163,β-catenin,c-myc,and cyclin D 1,as well as significantly reduced colony formation,cell migration,and wound healing(P<0.05). Compared with the scutellarin group, the scutellarin+LiCl group showed significantly lower protein expression levels of iNOS and CD68(P<0.05)and significantly higher expression levels of CD206,CD163,β-catenin,c-myc,and cyclin D 1,accompanied by a significant increase in colony-forming cells,migrated cells,and the wound healing rate(P<0.05). Conclusion Scutellarin can inhibit the proliferation and metastasis of ovarian cancer cells by suppressing M 2-like polarization of macrophages,thereby remodeling the tumor microenvironment. Its mechanism of action involves the regulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
