ABSTRACT

AIM: To explore whether inhibition of NF-?B by antioxidant pvrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) sensitizes leukemia cells to cytotoxic drugs and its mechanism. METHODS: The indirect immunofluorescence method and electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) were used to measure the activation of NF-?B. The apoptotic cells were evaluated by flow cytometry (FCM) and the in vitro growth inhibitory effect was performed using a MTT assay. RESULTS: EMSA showed that NF-?B was activated by daunorubicin (DNR), VP-16 and then was inhibited by PDTC in a dose-dependent manner. NF-?B activation was further verified because of subunit RelA of NF-?B locating in the nuclei. FCM analysis showed that apoptotic index of HL-60 cells was up to (8.97?0.81)%, (16.01?1.06)%, (22.96?1.33)% from (5.34?0.62)%, (10.16?0.42)%, (17.32?1.15)% after exposure of HL-60 cells to 2.5-10 mg/L VP-16 combined with PDTC. VP-16 added with PDTC produced greater growth inhibitory effect to HL-60 cells than did VP-16 or DNR only (P
