RESUMEN
Objective To establish chicken embryo transplantation model of human colon cancer and to research the effect of so‐lanine on angiogenesis .Methods Cases with chicken embryos were divided into the low‐,mid‐and high dose solanine group and con‐trol group ,with 10 cases in each groups ,and then the cultured human colon cancer cell line HT‐29 cell lines were inoculated to the chicken embryo villus allantois membrane (CAM ) .We observed the characteristics of the transplanted tumor in CAM angiogenesis by the stereo microscope .Image analysis software of Image‐pro plus 6 .0 and immunohistochemical method were used to observe the effect of different dose of solanine on angiogenesis .Results HT‐29 cell lines were inoculated to CAM 3-5 days ,a large number of blood vessels concentrated in tumors ,growing into or acrossing the surface of tumors .While tumors also rapidly growed .We took photo on the 5th day after receiving medicine and did imaging analysis .Then we calculated the area of angiogenesis in experimental group ,which was significantly lower than that of the control group ,quantitatively in a dose‐dependent manner .There were signifi‐cant differences among the groups(P<0 .01) .Microvascular density of 3 different dose of solanine was significantly lower than that of the control group by immunohistochemical method ;the expression of Ki‐67 antigen index decreased gradually ,which was highest in the control group ,and there were significant differences among the groups (P<0 .01) .Conclusion Solanine could inhibit angio‐genesis induced by human colon cancer HT‐29 cell lines obviously ,thus inhibiting the growth of tumor and providing an important basis for the treatment of anti‐tumor angiogenesis .
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: This study was undertaken to reveal the molecular mechanism underlying sulindac-induced apoptosis in the human colon cancer cell line HT-29 (mutant p53). METHODS: Apoptosis was determined by using Hoechst 33342 staining, and translocation of proteins was established by using immunofluorescence, immunoelectron microscopy, and Western blotting after ultra- fractionation. RESULTS: This type of apoptosis was associated with decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, a translocation of the apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) to the nucleus, and morphological evidence of nuclear condensation. However, DNA electrophoresis did not elucidate the ladder pattern of DNA fragments. Instead, a pulse-field gel electrophoresis showed that sulindac led to disintegration of nuclear DNA into-high- molecular-weight DNA fragments of about 100~300 kbp. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicate that sulindac induces large-scale DNA fragmentation, suggesting a predominantly AIF-mediated cell-death process, through translocation of the AIF to the nucleus in HT-29 cells.
