BACKGROUND: Triptolide is a structurally unique diterpene triepoxide with potent
antitumor activity. However,the effect and mechanism of triptolide on
hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is not well studied. METHODS: Cells were treated
with triptolide, and the anti-HCC activity of triptolide was evaluated using flow
cytometry, western blot, and xenograft studies. MicroRNA microarray and
quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction was used to identify
differential microRNAs induced by triptolide. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay
was employed to study the interaction between c-Myc and genomic regions of
miR106b-25. MicroRNAs overexpression and knockdown experiments were performed to
determine the role of these microRNAs in triptolide-induced apoptosis. RESULTS:
Triptolide inhibited cell proliferation and induced marked apoptosis in multiple
HCC cell lines with different p53 status. Several signaling molecules involved in
different pathways were altered after the treatment of triptolide. Xenograft
tumor volume was significantly reduced in triptolide-treated group compared with
vehicle control group. Two miRNA clusters, miR-17-92 and miR-106b-25, were
significantly suppressed by triptolide, which resulted in the upregulation of
their common target genes, including BIM, PTEN, and p21. In HCC samples, high
levels of these miRNA clusters correlated with shorter recurrence free survival.
Triptolide inhibited the expression of theses miRNAs in a c-Myc-dependent manner,
which enhanced triptolide-induced cell death. We further showed that triptolide
down-regulated the expression of c-Myc through targeting ERCC3, a newly
identified triptolide-binding protein. CONCLUSIONS: The triptolide-induced
modulation of c-Myc/miRNA clusters/target genes axis enhances its potent
antitumor activity, which indicates that triptolide serves as an attractive
chemotherapeutic agent against HCC.
