Brazilein inhibits survivin protein and mRNA expression and induces apoptosis in
hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells
X. ZHONG, B. WU, Y. J. PAN, S. ZHENG
Introduction
Mekanisme apoptosis
Extraction of BrazilienBatang kayu Caesalpinia sappan Linn. (700 g) yang tlh dikeringkan diekstraksi dengan CH2Cl2 dan aseton selama 5 hari pada suhu kamar. Ekstrak kasar diuapkan dan dimurnikan oleh QCC menggunakan heksana dan EtOAc sebagai eluen untuk memberikan brazilein murni (3,6 g).
Cell CultureThe human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell line HepG2 was obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA). HCC cell lines SMMC7721 and QGY7703 were obtained from Shanghai Cell Bank (Shanghai, China)Stock solutions of brazilein in DMSO were freshly prepared for each experiment. The final concentration of DMSO in all the cultures was less than 0.2%
Material and Methods
Cell proliferation assay
5 x 103 cells were incubated in 96-well plates with different doses or absence of brazilein for 48h in a final volume of 200 μl
40 μl of MTT (5 mg/ml in PBS) was added to each well and incubated for an additional 4 h at 37 ºC
The purple-blue MTT formazan precipitate was dissolved in 100μl of DMSO.
Viability was evaluated by measuring the optical density at 570 nm on micro titer plate reader (Quant Bio-Tek Instruments, Inc.).
SDS PAGE & WESTERN BLOTTING
SDS-PAGE (PolyAcrylamide Gel Electrophoresis) SDS-PAGE, sodium dodecyl sulfate
polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, is a technique widely used in biochemistry,
forensics, genetics and molecular biology: to separate proteins according to their
electrophoretic mobility (a function of length of polypeptide chain or molecular weight).
to separate proteins according to their size, and no other physical feature.
…SDS-PAGE SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) is a
detergent (soap) that can dissolve hydrophobic molecules but also has a negative charge (sulfATE) attached to it.
Fig.1Before SDS: Protein (pink line) incubated with the denaturing detergent SDS showing negative and positive charges due to the charged R-groups in the protein. The large H's represent hydrophobic domains where nonpolar R-groups have collected in an attempt to get away from the polar water that surrounds the protein. After SDS: SDS disrupt hydrophobic areas (H's) and coat proteins with many negative charges which overwhelms any positive charges the protein had due to positively charged R-groups. The resulting protein has been denatured by SDS (reduced to its primary structure-aminoacid sequence) and as a result has been linearized.
PAGE
If the proteins are denatured and put into an electric field (only), they will all move towards the positive pole at the same rate, with no separation by size.
However, if the proteins are put into an environment that will allow different sized proteins to move at different rates.
The environment is polyacrylamide. the entire process is called
polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE).
Polyacrylamide is a useful polymer for gel electrophoresis because both the concentration and cross-linking of the gel can be controlled
Acrylamide Polymerization
Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (PAGE)Molecules are separated by size
in an electric fieldSmaller molecules migrate more rapidly through porous gel matrix
…Western Blot
Proteins are separated by gel electrophoresis, usually SDS-PAGE.
The proteins are transferred to a sheet of special blotting paper called nitrocellulose.
The proteins retain the same pattern of separation they had on the gel.
..Western Blot The blot is incubated with a generic
protein (such as milk proteins) to bind to any remaining sticky places on the nitrocellulose.
An antibody is then added to the solution which is able to bind to its specific protein.
The antibody has an enzyme (e.g. alkaline phosphatase or horseradish peroxidase) or dye attached to it which cannot be seen at this time.
..Western Blot The location of the antibody is
revealed by incubating it with a colorless substrate that the attached enzyme converts to a colored product that can be seen and photographed.

Watch for Color Development
•Discard wash solution•Add 10ml of the enzyme substrate (HRP color detection reagent) onto the membrane
•Incubate for 10 minutes•The colorimetric substrate is cleaved by the enzyme conjugated (attached) to the secondary antibody
Western blot analysis
DNA ladder assayAfter treatment of brazilein with different concentrations for 48hr,
1×106 cells were collected and precipitated.
Cell pellets were washed, resuspended in cell lysis buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl [pH 7.4], 10 mM EDTA [pH 8.0], 0.5% Triton X- 100), and incubated
RNase A (0.5 mg/ml) and proteinase K (0.5 mg/ml) were added, and the pellets were incubated for 2 h.
RNase A (0.5 mg/ml) and proteinase K (0.5 mg/ml) were added, and the pellets were incubated for 2 h.
DNA was precipitated by ethanol, resuspended in distilled water and electrophoresed on a 1.5% agarose gel
The gel was stained with ethidium bromide, and the DNA was visualized using a UV transilluminater.

Results Brazilein down-regulates survivin protein and mRNA expression in HepG2 cells
Brazilein causes strong apoptotic death and growth inhibition of HepG2 cells
Brazilein, an important component from Caesalpinia sappanLinn. ethanol extract, causes a strong down-regulation of survivin protein and mRNA expression in human HCC HepG2 cells together with caspases and PARP cleavages, induction of apoptotic death and inhibition of cell growth.
