ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of 5-FU on the expression of SHP2 gene in colorectal cancer cells RKO . Methods The human colorectal cancer cell line RKO of logarithmic growth phase was cultured 48 h with 5-FU .The expression of SHP2 was observed by immunofluorescence and Western blotting ;siSHP2 which specifically inhibits the expression of SHP2 was transfected into RKO cells and cultured 48 h with 5-FU .The cell absorbance (A) values were measured with CCK8 and apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry .The sensitivity of RKO to 5-FU and the effect of 5-FU on apoptosis of RKO cells were observed .Results The expression of nuclear protein of SHP2 was improved remarkably after colorectal cancer cell RKO was cultured 48 h with 5-FU .The sensitivity of RKO cells to 5-FU and the cell apoptosis rate induced by 5-FU were decreased after siSHP2 transfection .Conclusion 5-FU exerts anti-cancer activity possibly due to its promoting the apoptosis of RKO cells by influencing the expression of SHP2 .
ABSTRACT
Object To determine the structures of three saponins isolated from leaves of Aralia elata (Miq ) Seem Methods HPLC and electrospray ionization and tandem mass spectrometry were used for purification and structure identification Results Three saponins were identified as congmunoside Ⅴ, congmunoside Ⅶ, and congmunoside Ⅹ Conclusion These saponins are obtained from the leaves of A elate for the first time
ABSTRACT
The protection of ginseno-side (GNS ) isolated from leaves and stems on cultured cell from virus were observed. The results showed that GNS, especially the Rb1 monomer could suppress replication of virus such as HSV -Ⅰ , HSV-Ⅱ ,ADV- Ⅲ and VSV, and protect the cultured cells from virus infec-tion. A cream containing GNS was used in the treatment of herpes lebialis infected by HSV- I and 27 of 31 (87. 1%) cases were cured.
