ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE
Pinellia pedatisecta Schott (PPS)is a traditional Chinese medicine functioning as reducing swelling and drying dampness. Pinellia pedatisecta Schott extract (PE) has been confirmed to suppress cervical tumor growth and modulate the antitumor CD4+T helper immunity towards Th1.METHODS
For in vivo studies, HPV+TC-1 mouse tumor models were conducted and treated with PE for 3 weeks (10 mg/kg/d or 20 mg/kg/day). The immune profiles of spleen, tumor-draining lymph nodes (TDLNs), tumor and serum were analyzed by flow cytometry and multiplexed bead-based immunoassay. For in vitro studies, TADCs were generated by tumor-conditioned medium and treated with PE solution. The maturation and function of TADCs were evaluated by flow cytometry, ELISA, mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) and cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) assay. Furthermore, the effect of PE on SOCS1 pathway was examined by western blotting and real time PCR.RESULTS
PE upregulated the expression of major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII) and costimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86 on TADCs and promoted IL-12 secretion from TADCs. In addition, PE-treated TADCs promoted the proliferation of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and induced the differentiation of IFN-γ+CD4+ and GZMB+CD8+ T cells. PE-treated TADCs also elicited a more powerful antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response. Furthermore, PE treatment in vivo enhanced the proliferation, activated the functional ability (increased Ki67, CD137, GZMB or IFN-γ, TNF-α expression) and reversed the exhaustion (impaired CD95 or PD-1 expression) of antitumor T cells. Mechanistically, PE inhibited SOCS1-restrained JAK2 activation in TADCs.
