ABSTRACT
Objective:
Bilberry extract can inhibit the growth of cancer cells,but its effect on cervical carcinoma is rarely reported.This study was to explore the effects of bilberry extract on the expressions of Bcl-2,Bax,Fas and FasL in Hela cells.Methods:
We determined the apoptosis of Hela cells by Hoechst33342/PI fluorescent staining and DNA ladder and Annexin V/PI double-staining after exposed to bilberry extract at the concentrations of 0.025-25 ?g/ml for 24 hours,and the protein expressions of Bcl-2,Bax,Fas and FasL were detected by Western blotting.Results:
Obvious apoptosis-associated morphological changes and specific DNA ladder bands were observed in the Hela cells after exposed to bilberry extract at the concentrations of 0.025,0.25,2.5 and 25 ?g/ml,and the apoptosis rates of the cells were(4.13 ? 0.63)%,(5.41 ? 0.77)%,(8.74 ? 1.27)% and(12.05 ? 1.03)%,respectively.Western blot showed increased expressions of bax,Fas and FasL,and a decreased expression of bcl-2.Conclusion:
Bilberry extract induces the apoptosis of Hela cells by up-regulating the protein expressions bax,Fas and FasL and down-regulating that of bcl-2.
