| Abstract | Hwaeumjeon is a classical prescription that has been traditionally used for treatment of urogenital diseases with no scientific evidences until now. Thus, the present study was performed to evaluate antitumor mechanism of ethanolic Hwaeumjeon (EHEJ). 2-Dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) proteomic analysis, cell culture study, and Western blotting on apoptosis and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) related proteins were carried out in LNCaP prostate cancer cells. Eight spots with significant increased or decreased expression revealed by 2-DE based comparative proteomic analysis were identified as an increased protein ENC-1AS, four decreased proteins such as RAB34, SFRS1, heat shock 27, and proteasome activator, and three novel proteins such as Rho GDP dissociation inhibitor alpha, cytoplasmic antiproteinase, and EIF3EIP protein in EHEJ-treated LNCaP cells. In addition, EHEJ selectively inhibited the growth of LNCaP prostate cancer cells compared to normal human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Furthermore, EHEJ inhibited PSA and androgen receptor (AR) expression in androgen sensitive LNCaP prostate cancer cells at nontoxic concentrations. Also, EHEJ increased sub-G1 apoptotic portion, activated caspase-9 and -3, cleaved poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and increased the ratio of Bax to Bcl-2. Interestingly, EHEJ also attenuated phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) expression and suppressed the phosphorylation of survival gene AKT, ERK, and HSP27 in LNCaP cells. Consistently, PI3K and ERK inhibitors potentiated EHEJ-induced cytotoxicity and overexpression of Bcl-2 attenuated EHEJ-mediated apoptosis in LNCaP cells. These findings suggest that EHEJ induces mitochondrial dependent apoptosis partly via PI3K/AKT/HSP27/ERK pathways and inhibits PSA and AR in LNCaP cells as a prostate cancer chemopreventive candidate. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
