摘要: Since about 30% of all human cancers contain mutationally activated Ras, down regulating the over-activation Ras/MAPK pathway represents a viable approach for treating cancers. Over-activation is accompanied by accumulation reactive oxygen species (ROS). One developing anti-cancer drugs to target ROS production and their accumulation. To test this idea, we have employed C. elegans let-60 (gf) mutant, which over-activated (the homolog mammalian ras) exhibit tumor-like symptom multivulva phenotype, determine whether anti-oxidants can affect phenotype. Specifically studied effect Shengmai formula (SM), traditional Chinese medicine that has strong anti-oxidant activity, on physiology mutants. Unexpectedly, found SM treatment led opening mitochondrial permeability transition pore cyclophilin D then triggered oxidative stress related signaling activation, including p53, JNK, p38/MAPK pathways. Finally, induced apoptosis inhibited phenotype let-60(gf) Our results provide evidences support act as pro-oxidant agent could serve potential drug candidate combating Ras-related cancer.
