Abstract:
Natural products have shown great promise in sensitizing cells to TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) therapy. Sea cucumber (SC) extracts possess antitumor activity, and hence their potential to sensitize CRC cells to TRAIL therapy was evaluated. This study used Western blotting to evaluate the combination effects of SC and TRAIL in CRC and determined the molecular mechanism underlying these effects. SC fractions and TRAIL alone had no effect on apoptosis; however, combined treatment dramatically induced apoptosis of CRC cells, but not normal colon cells. Combined treatment induced expression of apoptotic proteins (poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), caspase 3, and 8), and this effect was markedly inhibited by ubiquitination of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP). SC did not affect the mRNA levels, but increased proteasomal degradation and ubiquitination of XIAP protein. Furthermore, SC induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, thereby activating c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-related apoptotic pathways in CRC. Taken together, our results demonstrate that the SC fraction may sensitize CRC cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis through XIAP ubiquitination-ER stress.
