- Abstract
Background: To investigate the effects of Isoorientin on the apoptosis, proliferation, invasion, and migration of human gastric cancer cells (HGC27 cells)., Methods: We used network pharmacology to predict the targets of drugs and diseases. The CCK-8 assay was used to determine the effects of Isoorientin on the proliferation of HGC27 cells. Flow cytometry was employed to analyze the effects of Isoorientin on cell apoptosis and cell cycle distribution of HGC27 cells. Scratch test and transwell chamber test were conducted to assess the effects of Isoorientin on invasion and migration, respectively. Additionally, qPCR and western blot were performed to examine the impact of Isoorientin on apoptosis-related genes and protein expression, respectively., Results: The Isoorientin significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of HGC27 cells compared to the control group. Furthermore, Isoorientin induced apoptosis in HGC27 cells by upregulating the relative expression of Bax and caspase-3 while downregulating the relative expression of p-PI3K, p-AKT, and Bcl-2 proteins., Conclusion: The Isoorientin exhibits inhibitory effects on the proliferation, invasion, and migration of HGC27 cells, and induces apoptosis in gastric cancer cells., (© 2024.
