Zusammenfassung:Pinellia pedatisecta Schott extract (PE) is extracted from Pinellia pedatisecta Schott (PPS), a traditional Chinese medicinal plant with the potential for direct anticancer effects or eliciting an anti-tumor response by activating the immune system. To explore PE's ability and mechanism to reconstruct cisplatin's immunogenicity. Cervical cancer cells were treated with cisplatin (CDDP) and/or PE. The exposure of calreticulin (CRT) on cell membrane was investigated by flow cytometry. The extracellular of ATP and HMGB1 was investigated by Western blot analysis, immunofluorescence and ELISA assay. Changes in immune profiles were using flow cytometry in vaccination and anti-tumor assays in vivo. Lastly, the mechanism of PE influenced the ROS/ERS pathway was examined by ROS assay kit, flow cytometry and Western blotting. PE treatment induced translocation of CRT from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cell membrane of tumor cells, concomitantly triggering immunogenic cell death (ICD). In terms of mechanisms, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress relievers could impede the ability of PE to induce immunogenicity. This indicates that PE is activated by ER stress, leading to subsequent induction of ICD. Upon analyzing RNA-seq data, it was observed that PE primarily induces programmed cell death in tumors by impeding upstream antioxidant mechanisms. Additionally, it transforms dying tumor cells into vaccines, activating a series of immune responses. This study observed for the first time that PE-induced CRT exposure on the membrane of cervical cancer cells compensates for the defect of nonimmunogenic cell death inducer CDDP thereby stimulating potent ICD. This ability restores the immunogenicity of CDDP through ER stress induced by the ROS signal. ROS played a role in PE's ability to induce ICD, leading to increased expression of ER stress-related proteins, including ATF3 and IRE-1α. PE exerted anti-cancer effects by increasing the ROS levels, and ROS/ERS signaling may be a potential avenue for cervical cancer treatment. Hence, the synergistic use of PE and CDDP holds potential for enhancing immunochemotherapy in cancer treatment. [Display omitted]
