Inhibitory Effect of Exosomes Loaded with Ginsenoside Rh2 on Growth of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of exosomes loaded with ginsenoside Rh2 on the biological functions of hepatocellular carcinoma cells. MethodsBoth Huh7 and PLC/PRF/5 cell were equally divided into control group, exosome group (Exos group), drug group (G-Rh2 group), and exosomes-loaded-with-ginsenosi...

description ObjectiveTo explore the effects of exosomes loaded with ginsenoside Rh2 on the biological functions of hepatocellular carcinoma cells. MethodsBoth Huh7 and PLC/PRF/5 cell were equally divided into control group, exosome group (Exos group), drug group (G-Rh2 group), and exosomes-loaded-with-ginsenoside Rh2 group (Exos@G-Rh2 group). The effects of each group on the viability, clonogenic ability, migration ability, invasion ability, and apoptotic level of hepatocellular carcinoma cells were detected through CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay, cell scratch assay, Transwell assay, and flow cytometry. ResultsCompared with the control group, the Exos@G-Rh2 group and G-Rh2 group showed significantly decreased cell viability, clonogenic ability, and migration and invasion capabilities, along with a markedly increased cell apoptosis rate (P<0.05). These changes were more pronounced in the Exos@G-Rh2 group than in the G-Rh2 group (P<0.05). ConclusionExos@G-Rh2 can effectively inhibit the viability and clonogenic, migration, and invasion abilities of liver cancer cells and induce cell apoptosis. This effect is stronger than that of free G-Rh2 at the same concentration.
