ABSTRACT
Objective:
To study confirm whether curcumin could inhibit the proliferation of CD44+colon cancer cells. In this study.Methods:
MTT method was used to test the proliferation inhibition effects of curcumin against colon cancer cells. And Real-time PCR and Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) were used to determine CD44 expression level in colon cancer cells after treated with curcumin. Then we used Magnetic-activated cell sorting ( MACS) method to separate CD44 positive and negative cells. And we compared the proliferation inhibition effects of curcumin against these two kinds of cells.Results:
Curcumin could inhibit the proliferation of HCT116 and HT-29 colon cancer cell lines. The expression level of CD44 could also be down-regulated after the colon cancer cells were treated with curcumin.Conclusion:
Curcumin could inhibit the proliferation of CD44+colon cancer cells. Thus it was suggested that crcumin might have the effect to inhibit the proliferation of colon cancer stem cells and might be used as a promising agents to prevent the relapse and metastasis of colon cancer.
