Abstract

Abstract Lung cancer causes high mortality due to its high metastasis. Naringin is a naturally occurring flavonoid that is widely found in the various citrus fruits. Naringin is known to have several therapeutic effects including anticancer, anti-pulmonary fibrosis, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory. However, low bioavailability and solubility of naringin limit its application. This project designed a thermosensitive naringin nanoparticle to investigate whether it might inhibit metastasis of lung cancer by inhibiting TGF-β1-smad2/3 signaling pathway. Cells were treated with various concentrations of naringin nanoparticles and unwrapped naringin for 48 hours. Naringin nanoparticles of 100µmol/L showed obvious inhibitory effect on the larger wound surface of cultured human cancer cells. Westerm blot was used to detect the expression of P-Smad2, Smad2,and α-SMA in A549 cells. The results showed that naringin significantly reduced the expression of EMT-related protein α-SMA in A549 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Naringin nanoparticles can reverse the EMT process. naringin nanoparticles can inhibit the expression of P-Smad2 protein in A549 cells, which may play a role in inhibiting lung cancer through TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway.The animal experiment was performed. The mice were given various concentrations of naringin nanoparticles and unwrapped naringin by IV. the protein expression levels of α-SMA, TGF-β1 and P-Smad3 in mice lung tissue were detected by immunohistochemistry. The results showed that naringin nanoparticles 50um/ml,0.2mL/day/time had significant effect on the inhibition of lung cancer tissue migration, and the different doses of naringin nanoparticles showed a certain dose-dependent trend. The expression of TGF-β1 and P-Smad3 in mice treated with naringin nanoparticles was significantly decreased, suggesting that naringin nanoparticles could inhibit the migration of lung cancer cells by inhibiting TGF-β1/Smad pathway.
