Selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor celecoxib could sensitize B-cell-originated lymphoma cell lines to epirubicin via down-regulation of MDR-1 mRNA and Bcl-2 mRNA expression
Background and purpose: It has been demonstrated that cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is overexpressed in some subtypes of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL)
and COX-2 correlates with the expression of P-glycoprotein and Bcl-2
which may contribute to chemotherapy-resistance in NHL. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of COX-2 in B-cell lymphoma cell lines and the potential mechanisms of celecoxib
a selective COX-2 inhibitor
to sensitize lymphoma cell lines to epirubicin. Methods: Quantitative fluorescent realtime poly-chain-reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot were employed to determine the expression of COX-2 in Raji
Jeko-1 and Namalwa cell lines
as well as in peripheral blood B cells from normal controls. Cell lines were treated with celecoxib at gradient concentrations
followed by the detection of cell viabilities by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8). Meanwhile
the changes in expression of MDR-1 mRNA and Bcl-2 mRNA before and after celecoxib treatment were determined by qRT-PCR. Raji cells were treated with epirubicin alone or in combination with gradient concentrations of celecoxib for 72 h
then CCK-8 was used to analyze whether celecoxib sensitize Raji cells to epirubicin. Results: Neither lymphoma cell lines nor normal B cells expressed detectable COX-2 in this study. Celecoxib inhibited the proliferation of the 3 lymphoma cell lines
and the mRNA expressions of MDR-1 and Bcl-2 were decreased by celecoxib in a concentration-dependent manner
except for that MDR-1 was undetectable in Jeko-1 cells. In addition
celecoxib sensitized Raji cells to epirubicin
indicating a synergistic anti-tumor effect between the two agents. Conclusion: Selective COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib down-regulates the expressions of MDR-1 mRNA and Bcl-2 mRNA in B-cell-originated lymphoma cell lines
