Periplocin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma progression and reduces the recruitment of MDSCs through AKT/NF-κB pathway.
We aimed to evaluate the effect of periplocin on inhibiting hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and further determine its mechanisms.. Cytotoxic activity of periplocin against HCC cells was tested by CCK-8 and colony formation assays. The antitumor effects of periplocin were evaluated in human HCC SK-HEP-1 xenograft and murine HCC Hepa 1-6 allograft mouse models. Flow cytometry was used to measure cell cycle distribution, apopotosis, and the number of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). Hoechst 33258 dye was applied to observe the nuclear morphology. Network pharmacology was performed to predict possible signaling pathways. Drug affinity responsive target stability assay (DARTS) was used to evaluate AKT binding of periplocin. Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence were used to examine the protein expression levels.
