Abstract

Objectives: Reportedly, ganoderic acid A (GA-A) increases the sensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma cells to cisplatin (DDP) chemotherapy. Therefore, this study aims to fathom the influence of GA-A on lung Cancer cells.

Methods: After the construction of A549/DDP cells through exposure to DDP, the effects of GA-A on A549 and A549/DDP cells were revealed by cellular functional assays, western blot and quantitative Reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR). The DDP-resistant lung Cancer tumor was established in vivo, followed by further validation of the mechanism of GA-A.

Results: GA-A suppressed the viability, migration, and invasion while downregulating Beclin and Autophagy marker LC3II/LC3I levels and upregulating p62 levels in A549 and A549/DDP cells. These effects were reversed by circFLNA overexpression. Also, GA-A reinforced the sensitivity of A549/DDP cells to DDP, elevated the Apoptosis and regulated the circFLNA/miR-486-3p/Cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily A member 1 (CYP1A1)/X-ray repair cross-complementing 1 (XRCC1) axis. The reversal effects of circFLNA overexpression on GA-A-induced viability and Apoptosis of A549/DDP cells could all be counteracted in the presence of 3MA. GA-A inhibited lung Cancer tumor growth and blocked Autophagy.

Conclusion: GA-A suppresses Autophagy by regulating the circFLNA/miR-486-3p/CYP1A1/XRCC1 axis to strengthen the sensitivity of lung Cancer cells to DDP.
