Özet

Amaç: Endometriyal kanser, dünya genelinde yaygın görülen bir jinekolojik malignitedir. Hücresel homeostazın bozulmasıyla tanımlanan endoplazmik retikulum (ER) stresi, kanserin ilerlemesinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Antiproliferatif özellikleri bilinen biyoaktif bir bileşik olan kapsaisin, kanser hücrelerinde ER stresi oluşturarak potansiyel bir tedavi ajanı olabilir. Bu çalışma, kapsaisinin endometriyal kanser hücrelerinde ER stresini nasıl tetiklediğini araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Araçlar ve Yöntem: İshikawa endometriyal kanser hücreleri 0–800 μM aralığında kapsaisin ile muamele edildi ve hücre canlılığı MTT testi ile değerlendirildi. Kapsaisin, 24 saatlik uygulamada 285.2 μM IC50 değeri ile doza bağımlı bir şekilde hücre canlılığını azalttı. BrdU testleri de çoğalmanın baskılandığını doğruladı. ER stresi ve apoptozun değerlendirilmesi için GRP78, ATF6, CHOP (ER stres belirteçleri) ile sitokrom c ve kaspaz-3 (apoptoz belirteçleri) düzeyleri ELISA yöntemiyle ölçüldü. Bulgular: Kapsaisin, hücre canlılığını ve çoğalmasını konsantrasyon ve zamana bağlı olarak anlamlı biçimde azalttı. GRP78, ATF6 ve CHOP düzeylerindeki artış, ER stresinin indüklendiğini gösterdi (p<0.05). Aynı zamanda sitokrom c ve kaspaz-3 düzeylerinin artması, apoptozun da aktive olduğunu ortaya koydu. Sonuç: Kapsaisin, İshikawa endometriyal kanser hücrelerinde ER stresi aracılı apoptozu tetikleyerek kanserin ilerlemesini engelleme potansiyeline sahiptir. Ancak, etkinliğini ve mekanizmalarını doğrulamak için in vivo çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.

Abstract

Purpose: Endometrial cancer is a common gynecological malignancy globally. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, characterized by disrupted cellular homeostasis, is implicated in cancer progression. Capsaicin, a bioactive compound with known antiproliferative properties, may act as a therapeutic agent by inducing ER stress in cancer cells. This study explores the mechanisms by which capsaicin triggers ER stress in endometrial cancer cells. Materials and Methods: Ishikawa endometrial cancer cells were treated with capsaicin (0–800 μM), and cell viability was asses-sed using the MTT assay. Capsaicin reduced viability in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC50 of 285.2 μM at 24 hours. BrdU assays further confirmed the suppression of proliferation. To evaluate the involvement of ER stress and apoptosis, levels of GRP78, ATF6, CHOP (ER stress markers), and cytochrome c and caspase-3 (apoptotic markers) were measured via ELISA. Results: Capsaicin treatment significantly reduced cell viability and proliferation in a concentration- and timedependent manner. Elevated levels of GRP78, ATF6, and CHOP confirmed the induction of ER stress (p<0.05). Concurrently, increased cytochrome c and caspase-3 levels indicated the activation of apoptosis. Conclusion: Capsaicin induces ER stress-mediated apoptosis in Ishikawa endometrial cancer cells, suggesting its therapeutic potential in targeting cancer progression. Further in vivo investigations are warranted to confirm its efficacy and underlying mechanisms.
