ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of Pinellia extract (PE) on HeLa cell line and to study its associated mechanisms, in order to provide theoretical foundations for its applying in clinical prevention and treatment of cervical disease.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>HeLa cell line was incubated in media containing different concentrations of PE. Growth of cells was observed and photo-generated with inverted phase microscope; cell activity was detected by MTT assay; cell apoptosis detected by flow cytometry, protein expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was detected by immuno-cytochemistry, and protein expression of Bcl-2 was determined by immunofluorescence.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>PE showed obvious inhibition on the proliferation of HeLa cells, cell apoptosis appeared after PE treatment in a time and dose dependent manner; PCNA and Bcl-2 protein expressions reduced significantly after being effected by PE for 24 h.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>PE can obviously inhibit the growth and induce the apoptosis of HeLa cells, and its mechanism is possibly realized through down-regulating the expressions of PCNA and Bcl-2. The study set a primary experimental base for further studying the action mechanism of PE and developing new anti-tumor agents.</p>
