Asiaticoside hampers epithelial-mesenchymal transition by promoting PPARG expression and suppressing P2RX7-mediated TGF-β/Smad signaling in triple-negative breast cancer. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents 10-20% of breast cancers and often has a worse prognosis due to its tendency to spread quickly.
  • Asiaticoside (AC) was found to block TGF-β/SMAD signaling which reduces cell migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in TNBC cells.
  • AC also prevents TNBC lung metastasis by increasing the expression of PPARG, which subsequently lowers P2X purinoceptor 7 (P2RX7) levels, further contributing to its anticancer effects.

Article Abstract

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for 10-20% of all human ductal adenocarcinomas and has a poor prognosis relative to other subtypes because of its high propensity to develop metastases. Here, the anticancer effects of asiaticoside (AC) against TNBC and the possible underlying mechanism were examined. We found that AC inhibited the TGF-β1 expression and the SMAD2/3 phosphorylation in TNBC cells, thereby impairing the TGF-β/SMAD signaling. AC inhibited the migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of TNBC cells by suppressing the TGF-β/SMAD signaling. Meanwhile, AC inhibited the lung metastasis of TNBC cells in vivo and the expression of p-SMAD2/3 and vimentin, and increased the expression of E-cadherin and ZO-1 in the lung. Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPARG) was identified as a potential target of AC. AC increased PPARG expression, while PPARG knockdown attenuated the therapeutic effect of AC. AC-mediated PPARG overexpression suppressed the transcription of P2X purinoceptor 7 (P2RX7). The restoration of P2RX7 reversed the therapeutic effect of AC. These results suggested that AC blocked P2RX7-mediated TGF-β/SMAD signaling by increasing PPARG expression, thereby suppressing EMT in TNBC.
