The effect of lipoxygenase inhibitor (NDGA) on the expression of VEGF and CD44V6 in breast cancer MCF-7 cells / 中国现代普通外科进展

Objective:To explore the effects of VEGF and CD44V6 on breast cancer MCF-7 cells by NDGA.Methods:MCF-7 cells in the logarithmic growth state were selected and measured.There were four cell groups(concentration:0,1,10,100?mol/L)in the experiment.After 48h treatment of NDGA,the expression of VEGFmRNA was measured by RT-PCR and the expression of CD44V6 was examined by flow cytometry.Results:After treatment of NDGA,the expressions of VEGFmRNA and CD44V6 in NDGA groups were significantly lower than that of the control group(F=2996.13,P

Effects of lipoxygenase inhibitor NDGA on telomerase and bcl-2 in breast cancer MCF-7 cells / 中国现代普通外科进展

Objective:To explore the effects of lipoxygenase inhibitor NDGA on telomerase and bcl-2 of breast cancer MCF-7 cells.Methods:MCF-7 cells in the logarithmic growth state were selected and measured.Four cell groups (concentration:0,1,10,100?mol/L)were divided in the experiment.After 48h treatment of NDGA,the mRNA expression of telomerase was examined by RT-PCR and the expression of bcl-2 was measured by flow cytometry.Results:After 48h treatment of different concentration of NDGA,the expressions of hTERTmRNA and bcl-2 in NDGA groups were both significantly lower than the control group (P0.001).Conclusion:NDGA can prevent proliferation and induce apoptosis in MCF-7 cells by means of the down-regulated expressions of hTERTmRNA and bcl-2.
