METHODS: The recombinant adenovirus Ad-p27mt was constructed to infect the human gastric cancer cell line MKN-45. Using flow cytometry, TUNEL assay and DNA fragment analysis, we measured the apoptotic effect of Ad-p27mt on the human gastric cancer cells. RESULTS: Ad-p27mt was successfully constructed and the infection efficiency reached 100%. After 18 h of infection, we observed an apoptotic hypodiploid peak on the flow cytometer before G1-S and apoptotic characteristic bands in the DNA electrophoresis. The apoptotic rate detected by TUNEL method was significantly higher in the Ad-p27mt group (89.4±3.12%)compared to the control group (3.12±0.13%, P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: Human mutant p27 can induce apoptosis of the human gastric cancer cells in vitro.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
