Kurkumin’in Osteosarkomada Doğal RANKL İnhibitörü Olarak Biyolojik Değerlendirilmesi

Osteosarkoma çocuklar ve ergenlik çağındaki kişilerde önemli bir sağlık sorunudur. Metastaz osteosarkoma hastalarının yaklaşık yüzde yirmisinde gözlenmektedir. RANK/RANKL/OPG sinyal yolağı osteosarkoma ve metastazında görev almaktadır. Özellikle RANKL’nin aşırı ekspresyonu osteoklast ve osteosarkoma oluşumu ile ilişkilidir. Bundan dolayı RANKL’nin aktivitesinin inhibisyonu osteosarkoma tedavisinde önemli bir metottur. Bu çalışmada kurkumin osteosarkoma hücrelerinde RANKL inhibitörü olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bu bağlamda kurkumin’in anti-proliferatif ve anti-invaziv özellikleri Saos-2 hücre hattında in-vitro ve hesapsal teknikler ile belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar kurkumin’in osteosarkoma ve metastazında potansiyeli olabileceğini göstermiştir.

Biological Evaluation of Curcumin As a Natural RANKL Inhibitor in Osteosarcoma

Osteosarcoma is an important health problem among children and teenagers. Metastases is observed in about twenty percent of osteosarcoma patients. RANK/RANKL/OPG signaling pathway is involved in formation of osteosarcoma and its metastases. Especially, the overexpression of RANKL is related to osteoclast and osteosarcoma formation. Therefore, inhibition of RANKL activity has been significant treatment method of osteosarcoma. In this study, curcumin was evaluated as RANKL inhibitor in osteosarcoma cells. In this context, anti-proliferative and anti-invasive properties of the curcumin were determined with in-vitro and computational assays in Saos-2 cell line. Obtained results showed that curcumin may has a potential for treatment of osteosarcoma and its metastases.
