Abstract
BackgroundTyroserleutide (YSL) inhibits the growth and metastasis of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This paper studied the effect of YSL on metastasis of human HCC and investigated its mechanisms.MethodsIn vivo, experimental lung metastasis models of human HCC SK-HEP-1 cells in nude mice were established, and In vitro, the proliferation, adhesion and invasion of SK-HEP-1 cells were detected.ResultsIn vivo, YSL significantly inhibited the metastasis of human HCC. In vitro, YSL significantly inhibited the proliferation, adhesion and invasion of SK-HEP-1 cells. Through analyses with reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and Western blot, we observed that YSL significantly inhibited the expressions of ICAM-1 in SK-HEP-1 cells. Through RT-PCR, Western blot and zymography methods, YSL was discovered to decrease the mRNA level, protein expression and activity of MMP-2 and -9 in SK-HEP-1 cells.ConclusionWe concluded that YSL could inhibit tumor growth and metastasis of human HCC SK-HEP-1 cells.
