Methods: Human ovarian cancer HO-8910 cells were cultured in vitro. Inhibitory effect of LAF on the viability of HO-8910 cells was evaluated by the MTT assay. Apoptotic effect of different concentrations of LAF on HO-8910 cells was assessed by AO/EB staining and FCM with propidium iodide (PI) staining. Expression of proteins related to apoptosis was analyzed by Western blot. Results: LAF significantly inhibited the viability of HO-8910 cells proliferation in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner, there were statistical significance compared with NS group (P 〈 0.05), and the ICso was 4.28 pg/mL for 48 h. The cells treated with LAF showed typical morphological change and apoptotic rate increased by FCM in a dose-dependent, and there was notable dif- ference compared with NS group (P 〈 0.05). Western blot showed that expression of Fas, caspase-8, tBid and Cyto-c proteins were up-regulated after treatment with LAF for 48 h in a concentration dependent. Conclusion: LAF could inhibit HO-8910 cells proliferation and induce apoptosis, which may be through the pathway of death receptor in vitro.展开更多
