RESUMO
Objective: To investigate the effects of bosutinib on the malignant behavior of thyroid papillary carcinoma B-CPAP cells and its possible mechanisms. Methods: Thyroid papillary carcinoma B-CPAP cells were cultured in vitro with a concentration gradient of(1ã2ã3ã4 and 5 µmol/L)bosutinib intervened for 24 hours, DMSO was used as the control group. Five parallel compound holes were set in each group. Cell counting kit (CCK-8 method) method was used to detect cell proliferation. Transwell assay and cell wound healing assay were used to detect cell invasion and migration. TUNEL staining assay and flow cytometry were used to detect cell apoptosis. Western blot was used to detect the expressions of autophagic proteins (Beclin-1, LC3, p62) and signal pathway proteins (SIK2, p-mTOR, mTOR, p-ULK1, ULK1). Results: Compared with the control group, the cell proliferation activity, migration ability and invasion ability were decreased (Pï¼0.01), while the cell apoptosis rate was increased (Pï¼0.01) in the bosutinib concentration groups of 2, 3, 4 and 5 µmol/L . In the concentration groups of 4 and 5 µmol/L, the expression of Beclin-1 (Pï¼0.05), LC3- â ¡/LC3- â (Pï¼0.05), SIK2 (Pï¼0.01) and p-ULK1 (Pï¼0.01) protein was decreased, while the expression of p62 (Pï¼ 0.05) and p-mTOR (Pï¼0.01) protein was increased. Conclusion: Bosutinib may inhibit the autophagy of thyroid papillary carcinoma cells through SIK2-mTOR-ULK1 signaling pathway to inhibit their proliferation, invasion and migration and promote apoptosis, thereby weakening their malignant behavior.

Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) is a commonly used brominated flame retardant, which has a wide range of toxic effects on organisms. This study investigated the cytotoxic effects on human hepatocytes (L02â¯cells) after treated with 0, 5, 10, 20, and 40⯵M of TBBPA. Results showed that TBBPA significantly increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA) and the ratio of oxidized/reduced glutathione (GSSG/GSH) dose-dependently. TBBPA also decreased the cell mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), caused the release of cytochrome C (Cyt C) to cytoplasm and promoted the expression of caspase-9 and caspase-3, and finally increased the level of apoptosis. The ROS inhibitor N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) relieved the oxidative stress responses, and prevented the decrease of MMP and increase of apoptosis. In addition, TBBPA promoted the expression of antioxidant genes related to Nrf2, such as quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), catalase (CAT), and heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1). Oxidative stress initiated by TBBPA, activated mitochondrial apoptosis and Nrf2 pathway, and increased the degree of apoptosis in L02â¯cells.
