ABSTRACT
To investigate the effects of quercetin on cell viability and apoptosis in meningioma cells and to determine the underlying molecular mechanism. HBL-52 meningioma cells were treated with quercetin at doses of 1, 5, 10, 20, and 40â¯ng/mL for 24, 36 and 48â¯h, and cell viability was assessed using the Cell Counting kit-8 (CCK-8) test. Apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry. Bax, Bcl-2, and IGFBP5 protein expression was assessed by western blot, and IGFBP5 and miR-197 mRNA levels were measured using quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR). The interaction between miR-197 and IGFBP5 was verified by dual luciferase assay. Quercetin reduces viability and proliferation and increases apoptosis in HBL-52 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Quercetin treatment also decreases Bcl-2 and increases Bax protein expression, and increases miR-197 mRNA while reducing IGFBP5 mRNA expression. A dual luciferase assay showed that miR-197 interacts directly with binding sites in the 3'untranslated region of IGFBP5, and that miR-197 overexpression reduced IGFBP5 expression. Quercetin may reduce meningioma cell proliferation and increase apoptosis by activating the miR-197/IGFBP5 cascade and regulating Bcl-2/Bax.
