Curcumin suppresses proliferation and induces apoptosis in human medulloblastoma cells via PI3k/Akt signaling pathway
Objective To determine the role of curcumin to PI3k/Akt signaling pathway in human medulloblastoma.
Methods Daoy cells were treated with curcumin at different concentrations of 20 to 100 μmol/L for time intervals of 24
48
and 72 h when they were in the logarithmic growth phase. The proliferation and apoptosis in Daoy cells in presence or absence of curcumin was analyzed by MTT assay and flow cytometry
respectively. The expression of PI3K,Akt and p-Akt at mRNA and protein levels was detected by RT-PCR
immunocytochemistry and Western blotting
respectively. Results Exposure of the cells to curcumin resulted in a decrease in cell proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner (
P
<
0.05). When the concentration of curcumin was 35 μmol/L and the treatment was for 48 h
the inhibitory rates reached peak and a significant increase of cell apoptosis was observed. The positive expression of PI3K
Akt and p-Akt in the cells without treatment were 80.7%
84.8% and 87.5%
respectively
which were significantly higher than those in the curcumin group (25.3%
58.8% and 26.7%
respectively
P
<
0.05). The relative expression of PI3K
Akt and p-Akt protein in the cells without treatment were 1.141±0.032
1.047±0.174 and 1.173±0.013
respectively
with those of the first and last proteins were significantly higher than those of the curcumin group (0.875±0.029 and 0.958±0.150
P
<
0.05). The relative expression of PI3K and Akt mRNA in the cells without treatment were 1.166±0.031 and 1.072±0.007
respectively
with the expression of PI3K were significantly higher than that of the curcumin group (0.833±0.033

P
<
0.05). Conclusion Curcumin inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis in medulloblastoma Daoy cells through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
