METHODS SGC-7901 cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium containing different concentrations of nimesulide (0,12.5, 50, 100, 200, 400 μmol/L). The MTT assay, morphological observation, electron microscopy (EM), immunohistochemical analysis and Western blot analysis were employed to investigate the effects of nimesulide on the SGC-7901 cells and to explore possible related molecular mechanisms. RESULTS Nimesulide inhibited the growth of SGC-7901 cells and elicited typical apoptotic morphologic changes. Nimesulide also decreased NF-κB and Bcl-2 expression, but increased the level of the Bax protein. The positive rate of Bcl-2 protein expression at 0, 50, 100 and 200 μmol/L of nimesulide was 58.3±14.0%, 50.2±9.9%, 32.8±5.0% and 22.7±5.5% respectively based on immunohistochemical staining. The positive rate of Bax protein expression was 22.0±5.7%, 29.2±6.5%, 42.7±5.9% and 74.5±9.1% and the NF-κB expression was 74.2±10.9%, 61.8±7.6%, 36.7±10.9% and 17.5±12.3%, Significant differences were found between so μmol/L and 100 μmol/L and 200μmol/L. Western blot analysis also showed that the expression of NF-κB was decreased. CONCLUSION Nimesulide suppresses tumor growth and induces apoptosis by inhibiting NF-κB expression, which may be related to the overexpression of Bax relative to Bcl-2 expression.展开更多

Methods: The cytotoxicity of crebanine N-oxide was evaluated by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide assay and cellular morphology was observed under a microscope. Cell apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry using propidium iodide staining. The expression levels of apoptotic-related proteins, cleaved caspase-3, cytochrome C, p53 and Bax, and autophagyrelated proteins p62, beclin1 and LC3 were detected by Western blotting assays. Results: Crebanine N-oxide treatment significantly inhibited the proliferation of SGC-7901 cells in a dose-dependent and timedependent manner via induction of G2-phase cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and autophagy in SGC-7901 cells.Conclusions: Crebanine N-oxide could inhibit the growth of gastric cancer cells by promoting apoptosis and autophagy and could be used as a potential agent for treating gastric cancer.展开更多

The concentrations of SPFE expressed as the level of β-carotene in the medium were 2×10-8, 2×10-7 and 2×10-6 mol/L β-carotene in assays (Ⅰ)~(Ⅲ), but 4×10- 8, 4×10-7 and 4×10-6 mol/L β-caretene in assay (Ⅳ) respectively. The results indicated that SPFE inhibited the prolifendion and colony forming ability of SGC-7901 cells. And in MTT assay, SPFE inhibited the viability of SGC7901 cells, but no inhibitory effect of SPFE was observed on the viability of lymphocytes in peripheral blood of healthy people. Finally, in the 3H-TdR incorporation test, both SPFE and β-carotene showed significant inhibitory effects on DNA synthesis in SGC-7901 cells, but SPFE was more effective than β-carotene.展开更多
