METHODS: Human colorectal cancer cells were treat-ed, individually and in combination, with Rosco, taxol, 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), doxorubicine or vinblastine. The antiproliferative effects and the type of interaction of Rosco with tested chemotherapeutic drugs were de-termined. Cell cycle alterations were investigated by fluorescence-activated cell sorter FACS analysis. Apop-tosis was determined by DNA fragmentation assay. RESULTS: Rosco inhibited the proliferation of tumor cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner. The ef-ficacies of all tested chemotherapeutic drugs were markedly enhanced 3.0-8.42 × 103 and 130-5.28 × 103 fold in combination with 5 and 10 μg/mL Rosco, re-spectively. The combination of Rosco and chemothera-peutic drugs inhibited the growth of human colorectal cancer cells in an additive or synergistic fashion, and in a time and dose dependent manner. Rosco induced apoptosis and synergized with tested chemothera-peutic drugs to induce efficient apoptosis in human colorectal cancer cells. Sequential, inverted sequential and simultaneous treatment of cancer cells with combi-nations of chemotherapeutic drugs and Rosco arrested the growth of human colorectal cancer cells at various phases of the cell cycle as follows: Taxol/Rosco (G2/M-and S-phases), 5-FU/Rosco (S-phase), Dox/Rosco (S-phase) and Vinb/Rosco (G2/M-and S-phases). CONCLUSION: Since the eff icacy of many anticancer drugs depends on their ability to induce apoptotic cell death, modulation of this parameter by cell cycle inhibi-tors may provide a novel chemo-preventive and chemo-therapeutic strategy for human colorectal cancer.展开更多

Methods: SW480 cells were treated with 0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100 and 200 μmo L/L of ZOL for 48 h, and CCK-8 assay was employed to obtain the survival rate of SW480 cells. SW480 cells were treated with 25 μmo L/L of ZOL for 0, 12, 24, 48 and 72 h, and then the survival rate was obtained. SW480 cells of the ZOL group were treated with 25 μmo L/L of ZOL for 48 h, while cells of the Cs A+ZOL group were pretreated with 10 μmo L/L of Cs A for 0.5 h and then treated with 25 μmo L/L of ZOL for 48 h. Then the survival rates of SW480 cells of the control group, ZOL group and Cs A+ZOL group were determined. Flow cytometry was employed to detect the apoptosis rate and the mitochondrial transmembrane potential(△ψm) of the three groups and Western blot was used to detect the expressions of cyt C in the cytosol of the three groups. Results: ZOL inhibited the proliferation of SW480 cells, and the inhibition rate positively correlated with the concentration of ZOL and the action time(P< 0.01). The cell survival rate and the △ψm of the ZOL group were greatly lower than those of the control group, while the apoptosis rate and the expression of cyt C in the cytosol were obviously higher than those of the control group. All the differences showed distinctly statistical significances(P< 0.01). The cell survival rate and the △ψm of the Cs A+ZOL group were all lower than those of the control group, but substantially higher than those of the ZOL group; while the apoptosis rate and the expression of cyt C in the cytosol were higher than those of the control group, but distinctly lower than those of the ZOL group. All the differences were statistically significant(P < 0.01). Conclusions: ZOL can induce the apoptosis in human colon cancer line SW480 and then inhibit the proliferation of SW480 cells directly by opening the mitochondrial permeability transition pore abnormally, decreasing △ψm, and releasing the cyt C into the cytosol. And the effect enhances with the increases of the concentration of ZOL and the action time.展开更多
