Background/Aims: Extracellular ATP performs multiple important functions via activation of P2 receptors on the cell surface. P2Y receptors play critical roles in ATP evoked response in human lung adenocarcinoma cells (A549 cells). Emodin is an anthraquinone derivative originally isolated from Chinese rhubarb, possesses anticancer properties. In this study we examined the inhibiting effects of emodin on proliferation, migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by suppressing P2Y receptors-dependent Ca2+ increase and nuclear factor-κB (NF-KB) signaling in A549 cells. Methods: A549 cells were pretreated with emodin before stimulation with ATP for the indicated time. Then, intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was measured by Fluo-8/AM staining. Cell proliferation and cell cycle progression were tested by CCK8 assay and flow cytometry In addition, wound healing and western blot were performed to determine cell migration and related protein levels (Bcl-2, Bax, claudin-1, NF-κB). Results: Emodin blunted ATP/UTP-induced increase of [Ca2+]i and cell proliferation concentration-dependently Meanwhile, it decreased ATP-induced cells accumulation in the S phase. Furthermore, emodin altered protein abundance of Bcl-2, Bax and claudin-1 and attenuated EMT caused by ATP. Such ATP-induced cellular reactions were also inhibited by a nonselective P2Y receptors antagonist, suramin, in a similar way to emodin. Besides, emodin could inhibit activation of NF-κB, thus suppressed ATP-induced proliferation, migration and EMT. Conclusion: Our results demonstrated that emodin inhibits ATP-induced proliferation, migration, EMT by suppressing P2Y receptors-mediated [Ca2+]i increase and NF-κB signaling in A549 cells.
