In this study, we investigated the effects of EGCG on human hepatoma and colon CSCs. HepG2 and HCT-116 cell lines were enriched by sphere formation, and their gene-expression profiles were analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. EGCG-induced growth inhibition in the parental cells was determined by WST-8 assay, and protein expression was assessed by western blotting.

Sphere-derived cells grown in serum-free, nonadherent cultures showed increased expression of stem cell markers, Nek2, and ATP-binding cassette transporter genes, compared with parental cells grown in conventional culture. EGCG induced growth inhibition in the parental cells in a dose-dependent manner. EGCG also inhibited self-renewal in hepatoma and colon CSCs, attenuated the expression of stem cell markers and ATP-binding cassette transporter genes, which are putative molecules associated with treatment resistance in CSCs, and decreased the transcription of Nek2 and p-Akt, resulting in the inhibition of Akt signaling. EGCG also altered cell cycle profile and apoptosis, which may in part play an important role in EGCG-induced cancer cell death. Overall, these results suggest that EGCG could be a useful chemopreventive agent for targeting hepatocellular carcinoma and colon CSCs, in combination with standard chemotherapies.","ja":"The long-term survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma remains unsatisfactory because of the presence of cancer stem cells (CSCs), which are responsible for tumor recurrence and chemoresistance after hepatectomy.
