Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the impact of Resveratrol nanoparticles on migration/invasion capacity of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cells and its mechanism. Human RCC cells were exposed to dimethyl sulfoxide or gradient concentrations of Resveratrol nanoparticles respectively,
and U0126 were also added in some experiments. We examined renal cell viability by MTT assay, and wound healing test and Transwell assays were used detect invasion and migration capability of RCC cells. We used Western blotting assay to analyze the protein levels in extracellular signal-regulated
kinase (ERK) signaling. We also detected the enzymatic capacity of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) in cells by gelatin enzymatic profiling. Resveratrol nanoparticles treatment significantly suppressed cell viability to migrate and invade RCC cells in a dose-dependent manner. Also, notably
were reduced MMP-2 activity and expression, and elevated TIMP-2 level were observed in RCC cells exposed with Resveratrol nanoparticles. Further, Resveratrol nanoparticles treatment significantly decreased only the expression of p-ERK1/2, but not p-p38 and p-JNK. Moreover, U0126, which is
the ERK inhibitor, exerted similar role as Resveratrol nanoparticles did. Of note was that, combined use of U0126 and Resveratrol nanoparticles displayed a more intense suppression of MMP-2 activity and expression, and also the viability to migrate and invade the RCC cells, compared with Resveratrol
nanoparticles treatment alone. The Resveratrol nanoparticles inhibited RCC cells migration and invasion by regulating MMP2 expression and ERK pathways.
