Abstract

The present study evaluated the effect of combining inhibitors (17‑AAG) of heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) and autophagy (3‑MA) on apoptosis using an incomplete thermal ablation animal model. A total of 28 orthotopic mice with hepatocellular carcinoma were randomly divided into 4 groups to receive different drug interventions. Following palliative laser ablation, changes in autophagy, apoptosis and Akt/mTOR expression levels were assessed in tumors. Compared with the controls, the 17‑AAG‑treated mice exhibited significantly decreased expression levels of phosphorylated (p)‑Akt and p‑mTOR with enhanced autophagy and apoptosis; no marked increases in the expression levels of p‑Akt and p‑mTOR were observed in the 3‑MA‑treated mice, with no significant changes in autophagy; however, apoptosis was enhanced. No significant decreases in p‑Akt and p‑mTOR or any increase in autophagy were observed in the mice receiving a combination of 17‑AAG and 3‑MA, but they did exhibit a marked increase in apoptosis. Compared with 17‑AAG alone, the combination of 17‑AAG and 3‑MA resulted in a marked increase in apoptosis without enhanced autophagy. In the incomplete ablation model, the effects of autophagy and apoptosis are antagonistic. The combined use of 17‑AAG and 3‑MA can significantly promote apoptosis and is worthy of further study.
