[Abstract]
Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of Guizhi Fuling Capsule (GZFL) on the proliferation of human uterine leiomyoma cells and to explore its mechanism of action using metabolomics technology. Methods Human uterine fibroid cells were divided into the control group, the GZFL (0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 1.0 mg·mL-1) group and the mifepristone (RU-486, 20, 25, 30, 40, 90 μmol·L-1) group, and the cells were treated with drugs for 24 h. The relative survival rate of cells was detected by the MTS method and the appropriate concentration was screened. Cell apoptosis and cell cycle were detected by flow cytometry; The expressions of B-lymphoblastoma-2 (Bcl-2) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in human uterine fibroid cells were detected by ELISA. Metabolomics technology was used to study the mechanism of action of GZFL on human uterine fibroid cells. Results Compared with the control group, GZFL could significantly inhibit the proliferation of human uterine fibroids cells (P < 0.01, 0.001), induce apoptosis and arrest the cell cycle (P < 0.01, 0.001), and down-regulate the expression of Bcl-2 and PCNA proteins in cells (P < 0.05, 0.01), all in a concentration-dependent manner. Compared with the control group, 14 differential metabolites were down-regulated and four differential metabolites were up-regulated in the high-dose GZFL group. Further pathway enrichment of the differential metabolites yielded 15 metabolic pathways, among which arginine and proline metabolism, alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism, and tryptophan metabolism might be the main pathways of GZFL action. Conclusion GZFL exhibits a significant inhibitory effect on UMCs, possibly by interfering with amino acid metabolism, thereby affecting the cells' energy supply and metabolic demands.
