Abstract |
Ovalitenin A, a chalcone compound derived from the roots of Millettia brandisiana
Kurz, has exhibited remarkable cytotoxicity against various cancer types. However, its
potential as anti-tumor agent in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), an aggressive malignancy
originating in the bile duct epithelia, remains inadequately explored. Therefore, the current
study aims to elucidate the anti-metastatic potential of ovalitenin A and the underlying
molecular mechanisms of its actions in CCA cells. The cell viability and migration ability of
CCA cells following ovalitenin A treatment were assessed using sulforhodamine B (SRB)
and wound healing assays, respectively. Protein expression levels of the NF-κB signalling
pathway and its downstream proteins were determined via western blot analysis. Our findings
demonstrated that ovalitenin A exerted a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the proliferation
of CCA cells. Furthermore, treatment with ovalitenin A led to a reduction in the migratory
potential of CCA cells. Notably, treatment with ovalitenin A resulted in a marked elevation in
the expression of the basal form of IκBα and NF-κB proteins. Subsequently, the level of
VEGF, a NF-κB-targeted protein that plays pivotal roles in driving cancer metastasis, displayed
a significant decrease following exposure to ovalitenin A. In conclusion, our study has yielded
compelling evidence supporting the remarkable anti-metastatic potential of ovalitenin A in
CCA cells. Ovalitenin A's pronounced effects on anti-migration are intricately linked to the
suppression of the NF-κB signalling pathway. |
