Abstract

IL-17 A is a promoter of colorectal cancer initiation and progression. Narciclasine is a polyhydroxy alkaloid compound isolated from Narcissus plants, which has potent anti-inflammatory and antitumor actions. The effects of narciclasine on colorectal tumors were evaluated, with a focus on IL-17 A. Narciclasine reduced the growth of HCT-116 and SW-480 colon cancer cells in vitro and in vivo in murine xenografts. The results of flow cytometry on JC-1 and Annexin V/PI revealed that narciclasine significantly reduced the mitochondrial membrane potential and induced apoptosis, findings confirmed by western blotting results of reduced Bcl-2 and enhanced Bax expression, as well as accumulation of cleaved Caspase-3, Caspase-8, Caspase-9, and cytoplasmic Cytochrome-c. After narciclasine incubation, IL-17 A, Act1, and TRAF6 were down-regulated, while p-P65 (Ser536) accumulated in the cytoplasm, a finding confirmed by laser scanning confocal microscopy. IL17A substitution could partly reverse these narciclasine effects while they were elevated by IL17A silencing. Moreover, IL-17 A, Act1, and TRAF6 were significantly expressed to greater extents in human colorectal cancer compared to normal adjacent tissue specimens and were closely linked with a poor prognosis. This study provided evidence that narciclasine may be a useful therapeutic drug for colorectal cancer treatment through its actions in down-regulating the L-17A/Act1/TRAF6/NF-κB anti-apoptotic signaling pathway.
