| description | Casticin was obtained from natural plants, and it has been shown to exert biological functions; however, no report concerns the induction of DNA damage and repair in human lung cancer cells. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects and molecular mechanism of casticin on DNA damage and repair in human lung cancer A549 cells. Cell viability was determined by flow cytometric assay. The DNA damage was evaluated by 4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining and electrophoresis which included comet assay and DNA gel electrophoresis. The protein levels associated with DNA damage and repair were analyzed by western blotting. The expression and translocation of p-H2A.X were observed by confocal laser microscopy. Casticin reduced total viable cell number and induced DNA condensation, fragmentation, and damage in A549 cells. Furthermore, casticin increased p-ATM at 6 h and increased p-ATR and BRCA1 at 6−24 h treatment but decreased p-ATM at 24−48 h, as well as decreased p-ATR and BRCA1 at 48 h. Furthermore, casticin decreased p-p53 at 6−24 h but increased at 48 h. Casticin increased p-H2A.X and MDC1 at 6−48 h treatment. In addition, casticin increased PARP (cleavage) at 6, 24, and 48 h treatment, DNA-PKcs and MGMT at 48 h in A549 cells. Casticin induced the expressions and nuclear translocation of p-H2AX in A549 cells by confocal laser microscopy. Casticin reduced cell number through DNA damage and condensation in human lung cancer A549 cells. |
