Sea cucumber extract TBL-12 inhibits the proliferation, migration, and invasion of human prostate cancer cells through the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and intrinsic caspase apoptosis pathway.

Sea cucumber is a kind of nutritious echinoderm that has multiple biological activities, including antioxidant, antibacterial, and antitumor activities. However, there is no extensive study on the antitumor effect of sea cucumber extract on prostate cancer (PCa). TBL-12 is a new sea cucumber extract. In this study, we investigated the in vivo anti-PCa effect of TBL-12 and its in vitro effects on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of the human PCa cell lines LNCaP, 22RV1, PC-3, and DU145, and evaluated its possible mechanisms.

A natural ent‑kaurane diterpenoid induces antiproliferation in ovarian cancer cells via ERK1/2 regulation and inhibition of cellular migration and invasion.

Ovarian cancer is one of the most common causes of female mortalities from gynecological tumors. An ent‑kaurane diterpenoid compound CRT1 (ent‑18‑acetoxy‑7β‑hydroxy kaur‑15‑oxo‑16‑ene), mainly isolated from the Vietnamese herb Croton tonkinesis has been used in folk medicine in Vietnam for cancer treatment. However, the effect of this compound on human ovarian cancer cells has not yet been reported. The objective of the present study was to determine the effect of CRT1 on the cell viability, apoptosis and metastasis of SKOV3 human ovarian cancer cells using a Cell Counting Kit‑8 assay, flow cytometric analysis of Annexin V‑fluorescein isothiocyanate/propidium iodide staining, western blot analysis, soft agar colony forming assay, wound healing assay and Matrigel invasion assay. The results revealed that CRT1 possessed significant anti‑proliferative effects on SKOV3 cells. CRT1 treatment at 25 and 50 µM induced apoptosis, enhanced the percentage of Annexin V‑positive cells, increased the expression of pro‑apoptotic protein B‑cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl‑2)‑associated X protein, cytochrome c release from the mitochondria to the cytosol, cleaved caspase‑3, caspase‑7, caspase‑9, and poly (adenosine diphosphate‑ribose) polymerase. However, it decreased the expression of Bcl‑2 in a dose‑dependent manner. The percentage of necrotic cells increased following CRT1 treatment at <10 µM. CRT1 at 50 µM significantly induced the phosphorylation of extracellular signal‑regulated kinase (ERK). Growth inhibition and the apoptotic effects of CRT1 could be reversed by PD98059, an ERK inhibitor. Additionally, CRT1 inhibited cell migration and invasion via ERK1/2 activation in SKOV3 cells. These results indicated that CRT1, an ent‑kaurane diterpenoid, may be a potential inhibitor of ovarian cancer by the activating ERK1/2/p90 ribosomal S6 kinase signaling pathway.
