ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effects of triptolide on the apoptosis in and proliferation of a human melanoma cell line M14.Methods M14 cells were cultured with the presence of 5 concentrations (12.5,25,50,100,200 nmol/L) of triptolide for 24,48 and 72 hours respectively,and cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) was used for the detection of cell proliferation.Some M14 cells were treated with triptolide at 10 nmol/L,20 nmol/L and 30 nmol/L for 48 hours followed by the analysis of cell cycle by flow cytometry and detection of cell apoptosis by flow cytometry following annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)/propidium iodide double staining.The morphological changes of M14 cells treated by triptolide at 30 nmol/L for 48 hours were observed by Hoechest 33258 staining.Results Compared with untreated M14 cells,an increase of cell population in S phase was observed in triptolide-treated cells,along with a decline in cell population in G2/M phase.The apoptosis rate was (2.92 ± 0.17)%,(20.99 ± 0.40)%,(34.28 ± 2.04)% and (63.38 ± 0.71) % respectively in M14 cells treated with triptolide at 0,10,20 and 30 nmol/L for 48 hours,suggesting that triptolide enhanced the proliferation of M14 cells in a dose-dependent manner.After treatment with triptolide of 30 nmol/L,M14 cells showed morphological changes characteristic of apoptosis.Conclusion Triptolide could inhibit the proliferation of and induce the apoptosis in M14 human melanoma cells.
