ABSTRACT
Aim To observe the effect of methylation inhibitors of 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-CdR) on SPC-Al - lung cancer cell proliferation, cell scratches and apoptosis, to explore the influence of secretion curl associated protein 1 (SFRPl) and 06-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) gene promoter region in which DNA methylation mRNA and protein expression and meaning. Methods The effects of 5-Aza-CdR at different concentrations on the proliferation of human lung cancer SPC-A 1 cells were determined by CCK-8 assay. The effect of 5-Aza-CdR on the migration ability of SPC-A 1 cells was determined by scratch assay. The apoptosis of lung cancer SPC-A 1 cells was detected by Hoechst 33258 staining after treatment with 5-Aza-CdR for 24 h. mRNA and protein expressions of SFRPl and MGMT in SPC-Al cells were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. Results 5-Aza-CdR could reduce the proliferation of SPC-A 1 cells by concentration gradient,and IC50 was 21.2 jjimol • L
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of ethanol extracts of Solanum lyratum Thunb(ST) on induction of apoptosis and the expression of apoptosis associated genes fas and caspase-3 in human lung cancer SPC-A-1 cells.METHODS:Cultured human lung cancer SPC-A-1 cells were randomly divided into the control group,ethanol extracts of ST treated groups(2.5、5、10 mg?L-1)and the positive control group(cisplatin).After treatment with drug for 48 h,the proliferation inhibitory rate was evaluated by MTT assay,induction of cell apoptosis rate was determined by TUNEL method,the expression of fas and caspase-3 mRNA was detected by semi-quantitive RT-PCR.RESULTS:Compared with control group,the inhibitory rate was increased obviously(P
