摘要: | Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) are increasingly used in sunscreens, food additives,
pigments, rubber manufacture, and electronic materials. Several studies have shown that ZnO-NPs
inhibit cell growth and induce apoptosis by the production of oxidative stress in a variety of
human cancer cells. However, the anti-cancer property and molecular mechanism of ZnO-NPs in
human gingival squamous cell carcinoma (GSCC) are not fully understood. In this study, we found
that ZnO-NPs induced growth inhibition of GSCC (Ca9-22 and OECM-1 cells), but no damage in
human normal keratinocytes (HaCaT cells) and gingival fibroblasts (HGF-1 cells). ZnO-NPs caused
apoptotic cell death of GSCC in a concentration-dependent manner by the quantitative assessment of
oligonucleosomalDNAfragmentation. Flow cytometric analysis of cell cycle progression revealed that
sub-G1 phase accumulation was dramatically induced by ZnO-NPs. In addition, ZnO-NPs increased
the intracellular reactive oxygen species and specifically superoxide levels, and also decreased the
mitochondrial membrane potential. ZnO-NPs further activated apoptotic cell death via the caspase
cascades. Importantly, anti-oxidant and caspase inhibitor clearly prevented ZnO-NP-induced cell

death, indicating the fact that superoxide-induced mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with the
ZnO-NP-mediated caspase-dependent apoptosis in human GSCC. Moreover, ZnO-NPs significantly
inhibited the phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p70S6K kinase). In a corollary in vivo
study, our results demonstrated that ZnO-NPs possessed an anti-cancer eect in a zebrafish xenograft
model. Collectively, these results suggest that ZnO-NPs induce apoptosis through the mitochondrial
oxidative damage and p70S6K signaling pathway in human GSCC. The present study may provide
an experimental basis for ZnO-NPs to be considered as a promising novel anti-tumor agent for the
treatment of gingival cancer. |
