PA-MSHA induces apoptosis and suppresses metastasis by tumor associated macrophages in bladder cancer cells

摘要

Background The aim of the present study was to investigate effects of Pseudomonas aeruginosa -mannose-sensitive hemagglutinin (PA-MSHA) on the inhibition of the proliferation of bladder cancer cell lines and to further define its functional mechanisms. Methods A rat model of bladder tumor was induced by intravesical N-methyl-N nitrosourea. The dynamic growth of tumor was measured by whole-body fluorescent imaging system. Morphological analysis was observed by hematoxylin–eosin staining and microscopic examination. The expression of Caspase 3 and E-Ca were detected by immunohistochemistry technique. Macrophages were separated by flow cytometry. The expression of cytokines was measured by qRT-PCR and western blot. Apoptosis ability was conducted by means of annexin V and propidium iodide. The abilities of invasion and migration were determined by transwell migration assay and scratch assay. Results PA-MSHA and PA-MSHA?+?Fisetin groups inhibited the growth of tumor and increased the ratio of M1/M2. For one thing, PA-MSHA suppressed the invasive ability of the bladder tumor cell and promoted bladder tumor cell apoptosis. For another, it facilitated the expression of M1 cytokines and reduced expression of M2 cytokines. Furthermore, treated with PA-MSHA, mouse M1 phagocytosis rates were higher than that of M2 macrophages for bladder cancer lines. Conclusions The data revealed that PA-MSHA might promote apoptosis and inhibit proliferation, invasion and migration of mouse bladder cancer cells by inducing M1 polarization.
