To explore the effects of histone deacetylase inhibitor chidamide on the proliferation, invasion, migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of murine triple-negative breast cancer 4T-1 cells.
CCK-8 method was performed to analyze the effects of chidamide on the proliferation of 4T-1 cells; flow cytometry to detect the effects of chidamide on the cell cycle and apoptosis of 4T-1 cells; Western Blot to detect intracellular histone deacetylase 5, lysine-specifc demethylase 1 and EMT-related proteins E-cadherin, Vimentin, MMP-9, MMP-2 expression; Transwell method to analyze the effect of chidamide on the migration and invasion of 4T-1 cells; HE staining method to observe the pulmonary metastasis of tumor tissues and the toxicity of chidamide on mice; ELISA method to analyze the effect of chidamide on the immune system in mice.
The results of CCK-8 method showed that chidaniline had the ability to prominently inhibit the proliferation of 4T-1 cells, and its 24 h IC50 value was 43.42 μmol·L-1. Chidamide could induce G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis of 4T-1 cells. At the same time, it was found that chidamide distinctly down-regulated the mRNA and protein expression of HDAC5 in 4T-1 cells, but only down-regulated the protein expression of LSD1; in addition, the expressions of EMT-related factors E-cadherin, vimentin, MMP-9, MMP-2 were notably down-regulated. Transwell experiments found that chidamide obviously inhibited the migration and invasion of 4T-1 cells. In vivo, chidamide of 10 mg·kg-1 showed an outstanding suppression effect on the proliferation and pulmonary metastasis of 4T-1 cells in tumor-bearing mice, but did not affect the body weight and the morphology of heart, liver, and kidney tissues.
Chidamide can depress the expression of HDAC5, LSD1 and EMT-related proteins E-cadherin, Vimentin, MMP-9, MMP-2, and inhibit the proliferation and migration of 4T-1 cells both in vivo and in vitro, indicating that chidamide has a great potential for clinical anti-triple-negative breast cancer treatment.
