小白菊内酯对结肠癌细胞凋亡的影响及其机制研究

Objective To investigate the effect of parthenolide (PN) on human colon cancer cells in vitro and its mechanism. Methods Human colon cancer cell line HT-29 was cultured and treated with PN at the concentra-tions of 10 ,50 ,100 ,200,500 ,1 000 μmol/L for 48 hours. Then the apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. The ex-pression of NF-Κb p50 and COX-2 proteins were analyzed by Western blot and the concentration of PGE2 was meas-ured with ELISA kits. Results PN significantly induced cell apoptosis after 48 h in a dose-dependent manner. The expression of NF-Κb p50 and COX-2 proteins were down-regulated by the PN, and the concentrations of PGE2 were al-so declined. Conclusion PN can induce apoptosis of the human colon cancer cells. And the process may be carried out through the way of "NF-Κb→COX-2→PGE2".
