Methods Theantiprolfferation activities of MT were evaluated in HeLa cells by means of trypan blue dye exclusion and MTT vital staining.The morphological changes of HeLa cells induced by MT were observed under transmission electronic microscope. Cell divisioncycle influenced by MT was assessed by a flow cytometry. Results MT produced a certain inhibition of HeLa cells at the con-centration of 2 mmol@ L-1 and prolonged the TD. The fraction of cells inhibited was 61.0%. The IC. so of HeLa cells exposed toMT for 96 h was 2.039 mmol@ L- 1. The flow cytometric analyses showed that exposure to MT for 72 h reduced the number ofHeLa cells in phase S. Under electronic microscope, the HeLa cells exposed to MT for 72 h displayed morphological changesof necrosis, apoptosis, more hetero-chromosome and less somatic chromosome. Conclusion MT showed certain influences onthe growth of HeLa cells. Its mechanism may probably be attributable to reduction of the number of cells in phase S.展开更多

METHODS: The cytotoxic effect of drugs on HepG2 cells was measured by 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2- yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetra-zolium bromide (MTT) assay. Morphologic changes were observed by acridine orange (AO) fuorescence staining. Cell cycle and apoptosis rate were detected by flow cytometry (FCM). Drug-drug interactions were analyzed by the coefficient of drug RESULTS: Pae (7.81-250 mg/L) had an inhibitory effect on the proliferation of HepG2 cells in a dose-dependent manner, with the IC50 value of (104.77±7.28) mg/L. AO fluorescence staining and FCM assays showed that Pae induced apoptosis and arrested cell cycle at S phase in HepG2 cells. Further, different extent synergisms were observed when Pae (15.63, 31.25, 62.5 rag/L) was combined with CDDP (0.31-2.5 mg/L), DOX (0.16-1.25 mg/L), or 5-FU (12.5-100 mg/L) at appropriate concentrations. The IC50 value of the three drugs decreased dramatically when combined with Pae (P 〈 0.01). Of the three different combinations, the sensitivity of cells to drugs was considerably different.CONCLUSION: Pae had a significant growth-inhibitory effect on the human hepatoma cell line HepG2, which may be related to apoptosis induction and cell cycle arrest. It also can enhance the cytotoxicity of chemotherapeutic agents on HepG2 cells, and the S phase arrest induced by Pae may be one of the mechanisms of these interactions.展开更多
