This study provides a novel insight into the mechanism of degradation of E6 and E7 caused by punicalagin-induced autophagy. Therefore, our results will offer new strategy for treatment of HPV-infected cervical cancer. Punicalagin, which is derived from pomegranate peel, is reported to exert growth-inhibitory effects against various cancers. However, the underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated. Human papillomavirus (HPV), a major oncovirus, utilizes the host autophagic machinery to support its replication. Here, punicalagin markedly downregulated the levels of the major HPV oncoproteins E6 and E7 in cervical cancer cells through the autophagy-lysosome system. Additionally, punicalagin activated the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-JNK pathway and promoted the phosphorylation of BCL2, which led to the dissociation of BCL2 from BECN1 and the induction of autophagy. Treatment with autophagy and JNK inhibitors or ROS scavengers mitigated the punicalagin-induced degradation of E6 and E7. Moreover, the knockout of ATG5 using the clustered regularly interspaced palindrome repeat/Cas 9 system mitigated the punicalagin-induced downregulation of E6/E7. This indicated that punicalagin-induced degradation of E6 and E7 was dependent on autophagy. The results of in vivo studies demonstrated that punicalagin efficiently inhibits cervical cancer growth. In conclusion, this study elucidated a mechanism of punicalagin-induced autophagic degradation of E6 and E7. It will enable the future applications of punicalagin as a therapeutic for HPV-induced cervical cancer.
