A disintegrin and metallopeptidase with thrombospondin motif type 8 (ADAMTS8), a member of the ADAMTS family, was discovered as a novel angiogenesis inhibitor. We analyzed the expression and methylation of ADAMTS8 in primary gastric tumors and gastric cancer cell lines. We also examined the relationship between ADAMTS8 expression and methylation and clinicopathologic features. The results showed that the significant downregulation of ADAMTS8 mRNA expression was observed in gastric cancer cell lines and tissues, and its expression was related to invasive depth and lymph node metastasis. CpG was hypermethylated in gastric cancer cell lines MKN45, MGC803, and BGC823, as well as primary gastric cancer specimens. ADAMTS8 mRNA expression was significantly lower in methylated primary gastric tumors. A significant association was found between ADAMTS8 methylation status and lymph node metastasis in primary gastric cancer. Moreover, ADAMTS8 expression was upregulated in the gastric cancer cell lines MGC803, BGC823, and MKN45 after treatment with 5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine. Thus, our results demonstrate that expression of ADAMTS8 mRNA is significantly decreased and DNA methylation is frequent in gastric cancer. ADAMTS8 hypermethylation is associated with decreased expression in gastric cancer and may play an important role in the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer.

<p class="Abstract">The present study investigates the effect of rubriflordilactone A on the viability and its underlying mechanism in gastric cancer cell lines (SNU-1 and SNU-5) and normal gastric epithelial cell line (GES‑1). Incubation of the gastric cancer and non cancer cell lines in acidic media led to reduction in the viability of the non cancer cells without any effect on cancer cells. Apoptosis in SNU-1 and SNU-5 cells was induced on exposure to rubriflordilactone A after 48 hours compared to the control cells (p&lt;0.01). The percentage of apoptosis in SNU-1 and SNU-5 cells on exposure to rubriflordilactone A was 79.3 ± 4.7 and 74.0 ± 5.1, respectively after 48 hours. Exposure of SNU-1 and SNU-5 cancer cell lines to rubriflordilactone A at a concentration of 10 μM in media with acidic pH decreased phosphorylation of ERK ½. The similar reduction was caused by ERK 1/2 phosphorylation inhibition, PD98059. Thus rubriflordilactone A reduces viability of gastric cancer cell lines by inducing apoptosis through the reduction of ERK 1/2 phosphorylation.</p><p> </p>
