Previous research have suggested that theasinensin A (TSA) has anti-inflammatory effects; however, its potential for inhibiting colon cancer metastasis remains to be unclear. Therefore, in this research, we focused on investigating the mechanism of inhibitory effects of TSA on TPA-induced colon cancer cell migration. Previous studies report that matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is critical to intravasation and C-C motif ligand 2 (CCL2) is critical to extravasation. In our research, we tried to figure out if TSA can downregulate TPA-induced protein expression and activity of MMP-9 and CCL2 mRNA expression in human colon HT-29 cells. Our results showed that TSA effectively inhibited TPA-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET), cell anchorage independent growth and cell migration in HT-29 cells. Moreover, TSA may downregulate TPA-induced expression of MMP-9 and CCL2 via inhibiting TPA-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and p38 and AP-1 activation whereby further inhibit cancer cell migration. Based on our findings, we suggested that TSA could be a potential compound for preventing colon cancer metastasis.3664784 bytesapplication/pdf論文公開時間: 2021/8/31論文使用權限: 同意有償授權(權利金給回饋本人)癌症轉移聚酯型兒茶素A (Theasinensin A)MMP-9CCL2Cancer metastasistheasinensin A (TSA)matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9)C-C motif ligand 2 (CCL2)[SDGs]SDG3thesis10.6342/NTU201603481http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/273952/1/ntu-105-R03641004-1.pdf
