Abstract:Objective: To investigate whether rabies virus glycoprotein recombinated newcastle disease virus(rLRVG) affects gastric cancer cell apoptosis and proliferation by antagonizing α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor(α7nAChR). Methods: The obtained HGC cells were divided into three groups at random, the control group infected with PBS,the NDV(newcastle diseases virus) group infected with NDV and the rLRVG group infected with rLRVG for 24 hour. And the optimum concentration of NDV,rLRVG were selected by MTT.The levels of NDV, RVG,procaspase 3 proteins and α7nAChR were analysed with Western blotting and immunofluorescence. The another population of the HGC cellls was divided into nine groups randomly which were respectively infected with PBS+inhibitor,PBS,PBS+α7nAChR agonist,NDV+inhibitor, NDV,NDV+α7nAChR agonist, rLRVG+inhibitor,rLRVG,rLRVG+α7nAChR agonist. The expression of bcl2,bax and procaspase 3 were detected by Western blotting. Cell morphological changes were observed by inverted microscope. Results: RVG proteins only expressed in the rLRVG group(P<0.01), NDV, procaspase 3 proteins expressed in both the rLRVG group and NDV group.Compared with control group and NDV group,α7 nAChR protein in rLRVG group was increased(P<0.05) indicated by the Western blotting and immunofluorescence. The results of MTT assay showed that two kinds of virus concentration over 10-5mmol/L exaggerated cell proliferation inhibition. PBS+α7nAChR inhibitor group, NDV+α7nAChR inhibitor group showed that cell shrinkage and apoptosis were more obvious than those of PBS group and NDV group under inverted microscope,but there was no significant difference between the rLRVG group and rLRVG+α7nAChR inhibitor group; at the same time ,when the groups were infected by the α7nAChR agonist, the cell shrinkage and apoptosis became weaken. Then,the expression of bcl2, bax and procaspase 3 levels were increased in NDV+α7nAChR inhibitor group and PBS+α7nAChR inhibitor compared with NDV group and PBS group(P<0.01), though the diffierence of bcl2,bax and procaspase 3 between the rLRVG and rLRVG+α7nAChR inhibitor was not so obvious(P>0.05). When the groups were infected by the α7nAChR agonist, the expression of bax and procaspase3 levels were obviously decreased (P<0.01), the expression of bcl2 levels were obviously increased(P<0.01). Conclusion: rLRVG can induce the apoptosis and inhibit proliferation in gastric cancer cells by antagonizing α7nAChR.
