Plumbagin (PLB) has been shown to have anticancer activities in animal models,
but the role of PLB in prostate cancer treatment is unclear. This study aimed to
investigate the effects of PLB on apoptosis and autophagy and the underlying
mechanisms in human prostate cancer cell lines PC-3 and DU145. Our study has
shown that PLB had potent pro-apoptotic and pro-autophagic effects on PC-3 and
DU145 cells. PLB induced mitochondria-mediated apoptosis and autophagy in
concentration- and time-dependent manners in both PC-3 and DU145 cells. PLB
induced inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B
(Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and p38 mitogen-activated protein
kinase (MAPK) pathways and activation of 5'-AMP-dependent kinase (AMPK) as
indicated by their altered phosphorylation, contributing to the pro-autophagic
activity of PLB. Modulation of autophagy altered basal and PLB-induced apoptosis
in both cell lines. Furthermore, PLB downregulated sirtuin 1 (Sirt1), and
inhibition of Sirt1 enhanced autophagy, whereas the induction of Sirt1 abolished
PLB-induced autophagy in PC-3 and DU145 cells. In addition, PLB downregulated
pre-B cell colony-enhancing factor/visfatin, and the inhibition of pre-B cell
colony-enhancing factor/visfatin significantly enhanced basal and PLB-induced
apoptosis and autophagy in both cell lines. Moreover, reduction of intracellular
reactive oxygen species (ROS) level attenuated the apoptosis- and
autophagy-inducing effects of PLB on both PC-3 and DU145 cells. These findings
indicate that PLB promotes apoptosis and autophagy in prostate cancer cells via
Sirt1- and PI3K/Akt/mTOR-mediated pathways with contribution from AMPK-, p38
MAPK-, visfatin-, and ROS-associated pathways.
