一般注記AbstractCholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is at an advanced stage at the time of its diagnosis, and developing a more effective treatment of CCA would be desirable. Angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor blocker (ARB), telmisartan may inhibit cancer cell proliferation, but the mechanisms by which telmisartan affects various cancers remain unknown. In this study, we evaluated the effects of telmisartan on human CCA cells and to assess the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs). We studied the effects of telmisartan on CCA cells using two cell lines, HuCCT-1 and TFK-1. In our experiments, telmisartan inhibited the proliferation of HuCCT-1 and TFK-1 cells. Additionally, telmisartan induced G0/G1 cell cycle arrest via blockade of the G0 to G1 cell cycle transition. Notably, telmisartan did not induce apoptosis in HuCCT-1 cells. This blockade was accompanied by a strong decrease in cell cycle-related protein, especially G1 cyclin, cyclin D1, and its catalytic subumits, Cdk4 and Cdk6. Telmisartan reduced the phosphorylation of EGFR (p-EGFR) and TIMP-1 by using p-RTK and angiogenesis array. Furthermore, miRNA expression was markedly altered by telmisartan in HuCCT-1. Telmisartan inhibits tumor growth in CCA xenograft model in vivo. In conclusion, telmisartan was shown to inhibit human CCA cell proliferation by inducing cell cycle arrest.
