Oridonin inhibits proliferation of Jurkat cells via the down-regulation of Brg1
Objective To investigate the effect of oridonin on the human acute lymphocytic leukemia cell line Jurkat and its mechanism. Methods Jurkat cells were cultured in vitro and treated with various concentrations (0, 1.25, 2.5, 5, and 10 μmol/L) of oridonin for different lengths of time (24, 48, and 72 hours). The proliferation of Jurkat cells was analyzed by MTT assay. The changes in nuclear morphology were evaluated by fluorescence microscopy at 12 hours after treatment with various concentrations of oridonin. The expression levels of Brg1, P53, and C-myc were determined by semi-quantitative Western blot in Jurkat cells treated with various concentrations of oridonin for 24 hours or 5 μmol/L oridonin for various lengths of time (0, 2, 6, 12, and 24 hours). The expression levels of P53 and C-myc and proliferation of Jurkat cells were evaluated after Brg1 expression was knocked down by Brg1-specific siRNA. Results Compared with the control group, the proliferation of oridonin-treated Jurkat cells was significantly inhibited in a concentration-and time-dependent manner (P < 0.05). According to the florescence microscopic analysis, oridonin treatment led to nuclear pyknosis in Jurkat cells. Compared with the control group, Jurkat cells treated with 5 μmol/L oridonin had reduced expression of Brg1 and C-myc but elevated expression of P53. Brg1 knock-down led to a significant reduction in proliferation of Jurkat cells (P < 0.05), up-regulated expression of P53, and down-regulated expression of C-myc. Conclusions Oridonin can inhibit the proliferation of Jurkat cells, probably via the Brg1 signaling pathway.
