OBJECTIVES: To study the effects of curcumin on the proliferation, invasion, apoptosis, and radiosensitivity of the radioresistant nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) C6661-IR strain as well as the potential radiosensitization mechanism.
METHODS: NPC cells were continuously irradiated with different intensities of radiation to induce radiation-resistant cell lines. A plate clone formation assay was used to evaluate the effect of curcumin on the radiosensitivity of NPC cells. 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide thiazolyl blue (MTT) assay was conducted to detect changes in cell viability. Flow cytometry was employed to analyze apoptosis percentage as well as Transwell® assay and immunofluorescence assay to observe cell invasion. Western blotting was applied to detect the expression levels of Bax, Bcl-2, and pro/cleaved-caspase 3. MiR-205-5p mimics and si-TP53INP1 were synthesized and transfected into C6661-IR cells, and the cells were then incubated with 10 μm/L curcumin. Real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to measure miR-205-5p levels and western blotting was conducted to detect the expression of TP53INP1.
RESULTS: The optimal radiation dose of X-ray was 6 Gy, and this dose was used in all subsequent experiments. Curcumin treatment significantly inhibited the proliferation and invasion of C6661-IR cells, promoted apoptosis and enhanced radiosensitivity. Compared to the 0 Gy+Cur group and the 6 Gy+Cur group, the miR-205-5p levels were higher in the C6661-IR cells of the 0 Gy and 6 Gy groups. Moreover, miR-204-5p was found to directly target TP53INP1. Curcumin downregulated miR-205-5p levels and upregulated TP53INP1 expression (p < 0.05). Thus, modulation of miR-205-5p or TP53INP1 expression attenuates the biological effects of curcumin on C6661-IR cells.
CONCLUSIONS: Curcumin inhibited the proliferation and invasion of C6661-IR, promoted apoptosis, and enhanced its radiosensitivity to X-rays by mediating miR-205-5p/TP53INP1 expression.
