The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of water-soluble macromolecular components of Artemisia capillaris Thunberg (ACT) on human hepatoma cell line SMMC-7721 (SMMC-7721). The morphological changes of SMMC-7721 were observed under a light microscope and an electron microscope. Inhibition of proliferation was measured with a colorimetric MTT assay. It was discovered that ACT extract-treated cells exhibit morphological changes typical of apoptosis, including condensed chromatin and a reduction in volume. ACT extract at 25-200 microg/ml dose-dependently inhibited the proliferation of SMMC-7721. The 50% effective dose, evaluated on day 3 of exposure to the extract, was 64.52+/-3.53 microg/ml. Upon gel electrophoresis, the fragmented DNA showed a characteristic ladder pattern. Cell cycle analyses revealed that ACT induced cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase. 相似文献

Recent progress in cancer biology research has shown that abnormal proliferation in tumor cells can be attributed to aberrations in cell cycle regulation, especially in G1 phase. During the course of searching for microbial metabolites that affect cell cycle distribution, we have found that simaomicin α, a polycyclic xanthone antibiotic, arrests the cell cycle at G1 phase. Treatment of T-cell leukemia Jurkat cells with 3 nM simaomicin α induced an increase in the number of cells in G1 and a decrease in those in G2 –M phase. Cell cycle aberrations induced by simaomicin α were also detected in colon adenocarcinoma HCT15 cells. Simaomicin α had antiproliferative activities in various tumor cell lines with 50% inhibitory concentration values in the range of 0.3–19 nM. Furthermore, simaomicin α induced an increase in cellular caspase-3 activity and DNA fragmentation, indicating that simaomicin α promotes apoptosis. The retinoblastoma protein phosphorylation status of simaomicin α-treated cell lysate was lower than that of control cells, suggesting that the target molecule of simaomicin α is in a pathway upstream of retinoblastoma protein phosphorylation. In the course of evaluating polycyclic xanthone antibiotics structurally related to simaomicin α, we also found that cervinomycin A1 stimulated accumulation of treated cells in G1 phase. These results indicate that the polycyclic xanthones, including simaomicin α and cervinomycin A1, may be candidate cancer chemotherapeutic agents. ( Cancer Sci 2009; 100: 322–326) 相似文献

The effects of hyperthermia, adriamycin (ADM), and hyperthermia combined with ADM on pancreatic cancer cells were investigated from the viewpoint of cytokinetics using flow cytometric bromodeoxyuridine (BrdUrd)/DNA analysis. Human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell line Capan-2 was used. The untreated cells could be clearly divided into G1 , S, G2 M phases on contour plots of BrdUrd/DNA distribution. After heat treatment at 41–43°C, there was an accumulation of cells in the G2 M phase which was correlated with the increase in temperature. After heat treatment at 44 or 45°C, there was marked increase in non BrdUrd-labeled cells in the S phase. ADM caused no change in the percent of non BrdUrd-labeled cells in the S phase, even after treatment with a concentration of 1.0 μg/ml, though that concentration of ADM caused a marked increase in the percent of cells in the G2 M phase. After hyperthermia combined with ADM, the accumulation of the G2 M phase increased remarkably, and was significantly higher than that after each treatment alone ( P < 0.005); however, non BrdUrd-labeled cells in the S phase did not increase. In this study the synergistic effect of hyperthermia combined with ADM in increasing the percent of cells in the G2 M phase could be observed by flow cytometry. The study illustrates the importance of performing in vitro flow cytometric BrdUrd/DNA analysis of combined therapy prior to the use of the combined therapy in patients. 相似文献

Chinese Medicinal Herb, Acanthopanax gracilistylus, Extract Induces Cell Cycle Arrest of Human Tumor Cells in vitro 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We investigated the effect of a Chinese medicinal herb, Acanthopanax gracilistylus (AG), extract (E) on the growth of human tumor cell lines in vitro. AGE markedly inhibited the proliferation of several tumor cell lines such as MT-2, Raji, HL-60, TMK-1 and HSC-2. The activity was associated with a protein of 60 kDa, which was purified by gel-filtration chromatography. Cell viability analyses indicated that the treatment with AGE inhibits cell proliferation, but does not induce cell death. The mechanism of AGE-induced inhibition of tumor cell growth involves arrest of the cell cycle at the G0 /G1 Stage without a direct cytotoxic effect. The cell cycle arrest induced by AGE was accompanied by a decrease of phosphorylated retinoblastoma (Rb) protein. Furthermore, cyclin-dependent kinases 2 and 4 (Cdk2 and Cdk4), which are involved in the phosphorylation of Rb, were also decreased. These results suggest that AGE inhibits tumor cell growth by affecting phosphorylated Rb proteins and Cdks. 相似文献

(–)-Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), the main constituent of green tea, and green tea extract show growth inhibition of various cancer cell lines, such as lung, mammary, and stomach. We studied how tea polyphenols induce growth inhibition of cancer cells. Since green tea extract contains various tea polyphenols, such as EGCG, (–)-epigallocatechin (EGC), (–)-epicatechin gallate (ECG), and (–)-epicatechin (EC), the inhibitory potential of each tea polyphenol on the growth of a human lung cancer cell line, PC-9 cells, was first examined. EGC and ECG inhibited the growth of PC-9 cells as potently as did EGCG, but EC did not show significant growth inhibition. The mechanism of growth inhibition by EGCG was studied in relation to cell cycle regulation. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that treatment with 50 μM and 100 μM EGCG increased the percentages of cells in the G2 -M phase from 13.8% to 15.6% and 24.1%, respectively. The DNA histogram after treatment with 100 μM EGCG was similar to that after treatment with genistein, suggesting that EGCG induces G2 -M arrest in PC-9 cells. Moreover, we found by microautoradiography that [3 H]EGCG was incorporated into the cytosol, as well as the nuclei. These results provide new insights into the mechanisms of action of EGCG and green tea extract as cancer-preventive agents in humans. 相似文献

It has been reported that overexpression of wild-type p53 protein induces suppression of tumor cell growth in vivo and in vitro. In this study, we further evaluated the differential effects of p53 delivered in an adenovirus vector on the cell growth, apoptosis and cell cycle progression in cervical cancer cell lines. We constructed a recombinant adenovirus expressing p53 and then delivered this into cervical carcinoma cell lines (CaSki, SiHa, and HeLa, HeLaS3) along with adenovirus expressing β-galactosidase as a negative control. Adenovirus-delivered p53 overexpression resulted in a more significant suppression of cell growth in HPV 18-infected cells (HeLa and HeLaS3) and a lesser suppression in HPV 16-infected cells (CaSki and SiHa). However, no suppression was observed in cells infected with a negative control virus. p53 overexpression also induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest, as determined by annexin V and propidium iodide staining. In particular, the cell cycle was arrested in the G2 /M phase in CaSki cells. In contrast, cell cycles were arrested in the G1 phase in HeLa cells, suggesting that the arrest phase is dependent upon the cervical cancer cell line. Taken together, these data support the idea that overexpressed p53 protein plays a differential role in suppressing cervical cancer cell growth through apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in either G1 or G2 /M phase, depending on the cancer cell line. 相似文献

The aim of this study is to explore the apoptotic induction and cell cycle arrest function of luteolin on the liver cancer cells and the related mechanism. The liver cancer cell line SMMC-7721, BEL-7402, and normal liver cells HL-7702 were treated with different concentrations of luteolin. Cell proliferation ability was tested. Morphological changes of the apoptotic cells were observed under inverted fluorescence microscope after Hoechst33342 staining. We investigated the effect of luteolin on cell cycling and apoptosis with flow cytometry. The mitochondrial membrane potential changes were analyzed after JC-1 staining. Caspases-3 and Bcl-2 family proteins expression were analyzed by real-time PCR. Cell proliferation of SMMC-7721 and BEL-7402 were inhibited by luteolin, and the inhibition was dose–time-dependent. Luteolin could arrest the cells at G1/S stage, reduce mitochondrial membrane potential, and induce higher apoptosis rate and the typical apoptotic morphological changes of the liver carcinoma cells. Q-RT-PCR results also showed that luteolin increased Bax and caspase-3 expression significantly and upregulated Bcl-2 expression in a dose-dependent manner in liver carcinoma cells. However, the normal liver cells HL-7702 was almost not affected by luteolin treatment. Luteolin can inhibit SMMC-7721 and BEL-7402 cell proliferation in a time- and dose-dependent manner. And the mechanism maybe through arresting cell cycle at phase G1/S, enhancing Bax level, reducing anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 level, resulting in activating caspase-3 enzyme and decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential, and finally leading to cell apoptosis. 相似文献

The mode of antiproliferative action of deoxyspergualin (NKT-01) was examined. The growth-inhibitory effect on a murine leukemia cell line L1210 following treatment with NKT-01 was time-dependent, and there was little or no effect on the syntheses of DNA and RNA. Thus, the inhibitory activity of NKT-01 was not attributable to the inhibition of DNA and RNA syntheses. The influence of NKT-01 on cell cycle progression was studied by flow cytometric analysis. Bromodeoxyuridine/DNA distribution patterns in cells that were treated for 72 h, showed that the growth inhibition is due to the delay of cell cycle progression but not to cytotoxicity. This finding was also supported by evidence that the treated cells were re-proliferative in fresh medium. In addition, a majority of drug-treated cells was prevented from traversing from the G0 /G1 phase to the S phase by 144 h or longer exposure to NKT-01. The results suggest that NKT-01 is cytostatic, preventing G0 /G1 -S progression. 相似文献

We investigated whether a constant plasma concentration could be obtained by the individualized administration of low-dose, prolonged-infusional etoposide. Etoposide was infused for 14 days at 40 mg/m2 day initially in patients with inoperable non-small-cell lung cancer. The infusion rate was modified based upon the etoposide concentration at 24 h following the initiation of the infusion (C24 ) to achieve a target concentration of 1.5 μg/ml. We postulated that severe toxicities could be avoided by maintaining the steady-state concentration at less than 2 7mu;g/ml, while antitumor activity could be expected if the steady-state concentration was maintained at more than 1 μg/ml. In a total of 21 courses in 12 patients, the mean etoposide dose was 35±6 mg/m2 daily. The C24 was 1.8±0.4 μg/ml and ranged from 1.1 to 2.9 μg/ml. Following dose modification, the mean concentration from 96 to 336 h (Cmean ) was 1.6±0.2 μg/ml and ranged from 1.2 to 2.0 μg/ml. The toxicities were well-tolerated except for one patient with WHO grade 4 leukopenia and neutropenia who developed infectious complications. There were no treatment-related deaths. Following dose modification, the inter-patient variability was decreased successfully. Although this pharmacologically-guided method needs to be validated using more patients, it could be used for therapeutic drug monitoring. 相似文献

Shionogi Carcinoma 115 (SC 115) cells are a cloned cell line derived from androgen-dependent mouse mammary tumor. They can grow in serum-free culture if a physiological level of androgen is present in the medium, but can not proliferate in culture without testosterone. In the present study, the mechanism of cell death in SC 115 cells after androgen withdrawal was examined . Based upon the temporal sequence of DNA fragmentation, morphologic changes and loss of cell viability, androgen withdrawal induces programmed cell death (apoptosis) of SC 115 cells in serum-free culture. Northern blot analysis was used to identify a series of genes whose expression per cell is enhanced during the recruitment of cells from a nonproliferative (i.e. G0 ) state into G1 (i.e., cyclins Dl and C), from G1 into the S phase of the cell cycle (i.e., cdk2), and during the programmed cell death pathway (i.e. testosterone repressed prostatic message-2 (TRPM-2), transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and glucose regulated 78 kilodalton protein (GRP-78)). Expression of TRPM-2, TGF-β1, GRP-78, and calmodulin genes increases, but that of cyclins C and Dl, and cdk2 genes decreases during programmed cell death of SC 115 cells. These results demonstrate that androgen-dependent SC 115 cells undergo programmed cell death induced by androgen withdrawal, and that this death does not require proliferation or progression into Gi of the proliferative cell cycle. SC 115 cells should be a good model for investigating programmed death of hormone-dependent cancer. 相似文献

Inostamycin, a novel polyether compound, reverses multidrug resistance in KB cells. The mechanism of its action was studied by use of radioactively labeled vinblastine. Inostamycin dose-dependently increased the accumulation of [3 H] vinblastine in multidrug-resistant KB-C4 cells at 0.5-2 μg/ml, while it did not enhance accumulation in the drug-sensitive KB-3-1 cells. At a concentration of 1 μ/ ml inostamycin inhibited active [3 H] vinblastine efflux from KB-C4 cells, but not from KB-3-1 cells, and inhibited [3 H] vinblastine binding to KB-C4 membranes with an IC5O of 0.94 μg/ml (1.3 μ M ). Furthermore, [3 H] vinblastine accumulated by treatment with 1 /μg/ml of inostamycin was resistant to efflux from KB-C4 cells, even after the removal of inostamycin. 相似文献

The nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by nevi, palmar and plantar pits, falx calcification, vertebrate anomalies and basal cell carcinomas. It is well known in NBCCS that γ-irradiation to the skin induces basal cell carcinomas or causes an enlargement of the tumor size, although the details of the mechanism remain unknown. We have established lymphoblastoid cell lines from three NBCCS patients, and we present here the first evidence of abnormal cell cycle and apoptosis regulations. A novel mutation (single nucleotide deletion) in the coding region of the human patched gene, PTCH , was identified in two sibling patients, but no apparent abnormalities were detected in the gene of the remaining patient. Nevertheless, the three established cell lines showed similar features in the following analyses. Flow cytometric analyses revealed that the NBCCS-derived cells were accumulated in the G2 M phase after γ-irradiation, whereas normal cells showed cell cycle arrest both in the G0 G1 and G2 M phases. The fraction of apoptotic cells after γ-irradiation was smaller in the NBCCS cells. The level of p27 expression markedly decreased after γ-irradiation in the NBCCS cells, although the effects of the irradiation on the expression profiles for p53, p21 and Rb did not differ in normal and NBCCS cells. These findings may provide a clue to the molecular mechanisms of tumorigenesis in NBCCS. 相似文献
