Abstract

Non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSCs) are the leading cause of skin cancer-related morbidity and mortality. Effective strategies are needed to control NMSC occurrence and progression. Non-toxic, plant-derived extracts have been shown to exert multiple anti-cancer effects. Graviola (Annona muricata), a tropical fruit-bearing plant, has been used in traditional medicine against multiple human diseases including cancer. The current study investigated the effects of graviola leaf and stem extract (GLSE) and its solvent-extracted fractions on two human NMSC cell lines, UW-BCC1 and A431. GLSE was found to: (i) dose-dependently suppress UW-BCC1 and A431 cell growth, motility, wound closure, and clonogenicity; (ii) induce G₀/G₁ cell cycle arrest by downregulating cyclin/cdk factors while upregulating cdk inhibitors, and (iii) induce apoptosis as evidenced by cleavage of caspases-3, -8 and PARP. Further, GLSE suppressed levels of activated hedgehog (Hh) pathway components Smo, Gli 1/2, and Shh while inducing SuFu. GLSE also decreased the expression of pro-apoptotic protein Bax while decreasing the expression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2. We determined that these activities were concentrated in an acetogenin/alkaloid-rich dichloromethane subfraction of GLSE. Our data identify graviola extracts and their constituents as promising sources for new chemopreventive and therapeutic agent(s) to be further developed for the control of NMSCs.

Effects of GLSE on UW-BCC1 and A431 cell viability after (B) 24 h or (C) 48 h and colony formation of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) cells. Cells were incubated with the indicated concentration of GLSE, and percentage cell viabilities, determined by CCK-8 assay for UW-BCC1 cells, and by MTT assay for A431 and NHEK cells, were plotted against the doses of GLSE (μg/mL). Values used for plotting are means of experiments performed three times, with each concentration tested in 7–8 wells. Effects of GLSE on clonogenicity of UW-BCC1 (D and F) and A431 (E and G) cells as detected by colony formation assay. The purple color shows the density of stained cell colonies in the different treatment groups. Means for each cell line were compared against NHEKs in viability studies. Statistical differences from control cultures are shown as bar graphs with error bars representing the means ± SD in panels (F) and (G); * p < 0.05 and ** p < 0.01 and *** p < 0.001 vs. control (DMSO-treated) cells.

GLSE induces G0/G1 phase cell cycle arrest of non-melanoma skin cancer cells. UW-BCC1 and A431 cells treated with GLSE for 24 h were stained with the Apo-Direct kit following the manufacturer’s protocol and analyzed by flow cytometry. Plots and percentage distribution of cell population in the G0/G1, G2/M and S phases of the cell cycle are shown in the insert in each panel: (A) results from UW-BCC1 cells at different GLSE doses, and (B) results from A431 cells. (BD) Quantification of effects of GLSE treatment on cell cycle regulatory proteins. Whole cell lysates of UW-BCC1 (bottom left set of images in panels (B)–(D)) and A431 (bottom right set of images) with/without GLSE (0–160 µg/mL: 24 h) were subjected to SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Blots containing resolved proteins from UW-BCC1 and A431 cells were analyzed by immunoblotting with antibodies for CDK2, CDK4, Cyclin D1, Cyclin E1, p21WAF1 or p27kip1. Equal loading was confirmed by re-probing with β-Actin, GAPDH or vinculin as loading controls. The immunoblot images shown are representative of three independent experiments with similar results. Quantification data are shown in the supplementary Figure S4.

GLSE induces apoptosis of UW-BCC1 and A431 cells through activation of caspases 3/8, and PARP, and suppression of Bcl-2. (A) UW-BCC1 and A431 cells treated with or without GLSE (0–120 µg/mL: 24 h) were labeled with the Apo-Direct kit and analyzed by flow cytometry. Percentage of apoptotic cells observed (mean ± SD) with each dose of GLSE are shown in the box inserts in each panel. All experiments were performed in triplicate. (B,C) Whole cell lysates of UW-BCC1 (left panels) and A431 cells (right panels) treated with/without GLSE (0–160 µg/mL, 24 h) were subjected to SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and blots were probed with antisera to proteins involved in apoptosis pathways, showing (B) expression levels of caspase-3 and caspase-8 in both the intact and cleaved forms; and (C) expression levels of Bax, Bcl-2 and PARP, the latter in both the 116 kDa and 85 kDa forms. Equal protein loading was confirmed by re-probing with β-Actin or GAPDH. The immunoblots shown are representative of three independent experiments with similar results. Data represent the means of three independent experiments each conducted in triplicates ± SD vs. control (DMSO-treated cells), and bar graphs for (B) and (C) representing the means ± SD are presented in Figure S6.

Different solvent-extracted fractions of graviola stem and leaf powder extract display differential inhibition of cell viability in non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) cells. UW-BCC1 and A431 as well as control NHEKn cells were treated with one of three fractions of graviola (n-hexane, dichloromethane, or methanol) for 48 h, and cell viability was determined by MTT assay. Bar graphs show the effect (Mean ± SD) of each fraction on the % viability after each treatment, with IC50 values in (A) UW-BCC1, (B) A431 and (C) NHEKn cells, at 48 h, shown above the bars. All experiments were performed in triplicate. Details are described in Methods. The p values vs. control (DMSO-treated) cells: * p < 0.05 and ** p < 0.01 and *** p < 0.001.
