AIM:To study the effect of ruthenium-pyridine complex Ru1 on apoptosis of gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells. METHODS:MTT assay and crystal violet staining method were used to detect the viability and cell number of SGC-7901 cells treatment with Ru1. Annexin V-FITC and PI staining was performed to test the apoptosis rate of SGC-7901 cells. The protein expression of Bax and Bcl-2 was detected by Western blot. RESULTS:The results of MTT assay and crystal violet staining showed that the ruthenium-pyridine complexes significantly reduced the viability and cell number of SGC-7901 cells. Treatment with Ru1 for 24 h significantly increased the apoptotic rate of SGC-7901 cells (P<0.05). Ru1 up-regulated the expression of Bax protein and down-regulated the expression of Bcl-2 protein in the SGC-7901 cells (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:Ru1 induces apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells by affecting the expression of Bax and Bcl-2 proteins. 相似文献

AIM: To explore the expression of Dickkopf-1 (DKK1) in human gastric carcinoma cells, and the influences of DKK1 gene silencing on cell invasion. METHODS: The levels of DKK1 in the human gastric mucosa cell line GES-1 and gastric carcinoma cell lines MKN-45 and SGC-7901 were detected by real-time PCR and Western blot. DKK1 gene was silenced by RNA interference, which was verified by real-time PCR, Western blot and ELISA. The cell invasion ability was determined by Transwell assay, and the cell proliferation was inhibited by mitomycin C. The levels of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, vimentin and β-catenin were determined by real-time PCR and Western blot. RESULTS: The expression of DKK1 was significantly higher in MKN-45 cells and SGC-7901 cells than that in GES-1 cells, indicating that DKK1 expression was obviously increased in gastric carcinoma cells. After successful silencing of DKK1 gene in the MKN-45 cells and SGC-7901 cells, the cell invasion ability was markedly decreased in a time-dependent pattern with increased expression of E-cadherin and decreased expression of N-cadherin and vimentin, indicating that DKK1 silencing dramatically inhibited gastric carcinoma cell invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). The introduction of exogenous recombinant DKK1 (rDKK1) demonstrated the promoting effect of DKK1 on gastric carcinoma cell invasion and EMT. In addition, the inhibitory effects of DKK1 silencing on gastric carcinoma cell invasion and EMT were fulfilled by down-regulating β-catenin. CONCLUSION: The expression of DKK1 is significantly increased in human gastric carcinoma cells. Silencing of DKK1 markedly inhibits gastric carcinoma cell invasion and EMT by down-regulating β-catenin. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of propofol on invasion and migration of gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901. METHODS: Cultured gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 was randomly divided into 4 groups, and then diffe-rent concentrations (1, 3, 5 and 7 mg/L) of propofol were added and incubated for 24 h. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay. The invasion and migration abilities of the SGC-7901 cells were detected by Transwell assay and wound-healing assay. The expression of cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61 (CYR61), CD44v6 and matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) in the SGC-7901 cells were examined by immunocytochemistry and Western blot.RESULTS: Propofol at 5 mg/L does not affect the viability of SGC-7901 cells, whereas significantly suppresses the invasion and migration abilities, and down-regulates the expression of CD44v6 and MMP-7 (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The decreased invasion and migration abilities of SGC-7901 cells were partly due to the inhibition of CD44v6 and MMP-7 expression. 相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of integrin β1 on multidrug resistance in gastric cancer and its possible mechanisms. METHODS: The expression of integrin β1 at mRNA and protein levels in the SGC-7901 cells and SGC-7901/DDP cells was determined by qPCR and Western blot. The expression of integrin β1 in the SGC-7901/DDP cells was silenced by antisense oligodeoxynucleotide. The cell viability was detected by the CCK-8 assay, the cell apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry, and the protein levels of integrin β1, Bcl-2/Bax, cleaved caspase-3/caspase-3, cytochrome C (Cyt-C) and p-AKT/AKT were determined by Western blot.RESULTS: The expression of integrin β1 at both mRNA and protein levels was significantly upregulated in SGC-7901/DDP cells. The expression of integrin β1 was increased in SGC-7901 cells treated with chemotherapeutic agents such as cisplatin, paclitaxel and 5-fluorouracil. Knockdown of integrin β1 induced apoptosis of SGC-7901/DDP cells with an increased sensitivity to the chemotherapeutic agents. Meanwhile, knockdown of integrin β1 downregulated the protein levels of Bcl-2/Bax, p-AKTSer473 and p-AKTThr308, while promoted the release of Cyt-C and upregulated the protein level of cleaved caspase-3. CONCLUSION: Knockdown of integrin β1 increases the sensitivity of SGC-7901/DDP cells to the chemotherapeutic agents, and promotes the cell apoptosis via mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. The mechanism may be related to the attenuation of AKT pathway by inhibiting phosphorylations of AKT at Ser473 and Thr308. 相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of Fas on cisplatin resistance in stomach cancer cells and its possible mechanisms.METHODS: The expression of Fas at mRMA and protein levels in SGC-7901 cells and SGC-7901/DDP cells was determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot. Fas-containing adenovirus vector was transfected into the SGC-7901/DDP cells to upregulate Fas expression. The cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. The cell cycle and cell apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of Fas, P38/p-P38, JNK/p-JNK, cleaved caspase-8/caspase-8 and cleaved caspase-3/caspase-3 were detected by Western blot.RESULTS: The expression of Fas at both mRNA and protein levels was significantly downregulated in the SGC-7901/DDP cells. Fas expression was decreased by cisplatin in a dose-dependent manner in the SGC-7901 cells. Overexpression of Fas suppressed the viability and induced apoptosis in the SGC-7901/DDP cells, and upregulated the protein levels of p-P38, p-JNK, cleaved caspase-8 and cleaved caspase-3.CONCLUSION: Overexpression of Fas increases the sensitivity of the SGC-7901/DDP cells to cisplatin, and inhibits the cell growth and promotes cell apoptosis. The mechanism may be related to the activation of JNK and P38 pathway. 相似文献

AIM:To determine the antitumor effect of PF-04691502, a dual inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), on the viability and apoptosis of human gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901.METHODS:Cell viability was analyzed by MTT assay. Cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry, and Annexin V-FITC/PI dual staining was used to detect cell apoptosis. Protein expression of p21, cyclin D1, caspase-3, caspase-8, caspase-9 and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) was determined by Western blotting. RESULTS:MTT assay and cell cycle analysis results indicated that PF-04691502 inhibited the viability of SGC-7901 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and arrested the cells in G1 phase. PF-04691502 down-regulated the expression of cyclin D1 and up-regulated the expression of p21. In addition, SGC-7901 cells treated with PF-04691502 showed typical characteristics of apoptosis, accompanied by activation of caspases and cleavage of PARP. CONCLUSION: The PI3K/mTOR dual inhibitor PF-04691502 induces the apoptosis and inhibited the growth of SGC-7901 cells, implicating its potential therapeutic value for the treatment of cancer. 相似文献

AIM：To investigate the effect of Golgi phosphoprotein 3 (GOLPH3) gene silencing on the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cell in vitro. METHODS：SGC-7901 cells were transfected with lentiviral vector carrying GOLPH3 shRNA to construct a stable GOLPH3-silencing cell line LV-GOLPH3-RNAi. The expression of GOLPH3 at mRNA and protein levelss were detected by real-time PCR and Western blotting, respectively. The cell proliferation was analyzed by MTT assay. Transwell migration and invasion experiments were performed to measure the migration and invasion abilities, respectively. RESULTS：The stable GOLPH3-silencing cell line was successfully established. The expression of GOLPH3 at mRNA and protein levels was reduced significantly (P<0.05), leading to the inhibition of cell proliferation in LV-GOLPH3-RNAi group compared with scrambled group and blank control group, as well as the capacities of migration (56.7±1.5 vs 186.0±3.4 and 183.3±4.2, P<0.05) and invasion (33.5±3.0 vs 85.0±3.9 and 83.1±4.4, P<0.05). CONCLUSION：GOLPH3 silencing suppresses the capacities of proliferation, migration and invasion of human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells, suggesting that GOLPH3 may be a potential tumor marker and independent prognostic factor. 相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of paired-related homeobox 2 (PRRX2) gene on the viability and migration ability of gastric cancer cells, and to analyze the underlying mechanism of regulating Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.METHODS: The expression of PRRX2 in gastric cancer and normal gastric tissue and the correlation between PRRX2 expression in gastric cancer tissues with the overall survival rate of gastric cancer patients were analyzed by bioinformatics. The small interfering RNA (siRNA) and over-expressed plasmids of PRRX2 were transfected into gastric cancer cells MGC-803 and SGC-7901, respectively. MTT assay and Transwell assay were used to detect the viability and migration ability of gastric cancer cells. Western blot and TOPflash/FOPflash dual-luciferase reporter gene assay were used to detect the activity of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Co-immunoprecipitation was used to detected the interaction between PRRX2 and β-catenin proteins.RESULTS: Knockdown of PRRX2 attenuated the viability and migration ability of gastric cancer cell line MGC-803 (P<0.05). Over-expression of PRRX2 enhanced the viability and migration ability of SGC-7901 cells (P<0.05), increased the protein levels of β-catenin, c-Myc and cyclin D1 (P<0.05) and the activity of TOPflash/FOPflash dual-luciferase reporter gene (P<0.05). PRRX2 interacted with β-catenin protein in gastric cancer cells.CONCLUSION: PRRX2 promotes the viability and migration ability of gastric cancer cells, which may be related to Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. 相似文献

AIM:To investigate the inhibitory effect of microRNA-9(miR-9) on epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in the gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells and its mechanism.METHODS:The gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 was transfected with miR-9 mimics or negative control mimic (NCM),as miR-9 or NCM group,respectively.The SGC-7901 cells without transfection were used as control group.The expression level of miR-9 in each group was detected by RT-qPCR.The migration and invasion abilities of the SGC-7901 cells in the 3 groups were detected by Transwell assay.The protein expression of N-cadherin,E-cadherin,α-catenin and neuropilin-1(NRP1) was determined by Western blot.Antagonistic effect of NRP1 over-expression on miR-9 inhibition of EMT was detected by Western blot.The relationship between miR-9 and NRP1 was analyzed by dual luciferase assay.RESULTS:The expression level of miR-9 in miR-9 group was significantly up-regulated,which was 538 times higher than that in control group (P<0.05).The number of migratory cells in miR-9 group was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05).Compared with control group,the protein expression of N-cadherin and NRP1 in miR-9 group was significantly decreased,while the protein expression of E-cadherin and α-catenin protein was significantly increased.Over-expression of NRP1 resulted in the increase in the protein expression of N-cadherin in the gastric cancer cells of miR-9 group,and the decrease in the protein expression of E-cadherin and α-catenin significantly.The result of dual luciferase assay showed that NRP1 was a downstream target gene of miR-9(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:miR-9 may inhibit the expression of EMT-related proteins through the downstream target gene NRP1,thus inhibiting the EMT of gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the protein expression of DNA methyltransferases (DNMT1, DNMT2, DNMT3A, DNMT3B and DNMT3L) in gastric cancer and the effects of DNMT inhibitor (5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine) on gastric cancer. METHODS: The method of immunohistochemistry was used to detect DNMT expression in 60 pairs of gastric cancer and corresponding non-cancerous tissues. The expression of DNMT in gastric cancer cells (SGC-7901 and MKN-45) and gastric mucosa cells (GES-1) was detected by immunofluorescence and Western blotting. The proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis in the cell lines of SGC-7901, MKN-45 and GES-1 were determined by MTT assay and flow cytometry with 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine treatment. RESULTS: Both gastric cancer and corresponding non-cancerous tissues expressed 5 kinds of DNMT proteins, but the expression levels of DNMT1 and DNMT3A were significantly lower in gastric cancer than those in non-cancerous tissues (P<0.01). The expression levels of DNMT2 and DNMT3L were also lower in the cancer than those in non-cancerous tissues (P<0.05). No difference of DNMT3B expression level between cancer and non-cancerous tissues was observed (P>0.05). On the other hand, the cells lines of SGC-7901, MKN-45 and GES-1 also expressed DNMT proteins. Except DNMT3B, no difference of the other kinds of DNMT between gastric cancer cells and gastric mucosa cells was observed. DNMT inhibitor 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine did not have any effect on the growth rate, cell cycle distribution or apoptotic rate in gastric cancer cells and gastric mucosa cells. CONCLUSION: Gastric cancer expresses low levels of DNMT proteins than normal gastric mucosa. 5-Aza-2’-deoxycytidine is not useful for treating gastric cancer. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the molecular biological mechanisms by which microRNA-126 (miR-126) enhances the radiosensitivity of gastric cancer cells. METHODS: SGC-7901 cells were cultured in vitro. In order to over-express miR-126 in SGC-7901 cells, miR-126 mimic was transfected. The mRNA and protein levels of enhancer of zeste ho-molog 2 (EZH2) were detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot, respectively. The targeting relationship between miR-126 and EZH2 was determined by dual-luciferase reporter assay. To estimate the effect of EZH2 on miR-126-enhanced radiosensitivity of the SGC-7901 cells, the pcDNA3.1-EZH2 vector was also co-transfected with miR-126 mimic, and then CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry were used to detect the viability and apoptotic rate of the cells after radiation. RESULTS: Over-expression of miR-126 significantly inhibited the expression of EZH2 in SGC-7901 cells both at protein and mRNA levels (P<0.05). A direct targeting relationship between miR-126 and EZH2 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Compared with the cells only transfected with miR-126 mimic, co-transfection of pcDNA3.1-EZH2 with miR-126 mimic increased the viability but reduced the apoptosis of the cells treated by radiation (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Targeting inhibition of EZH2 may be one of the mechanisms by which miR-126 enhances the radiosensitivity of gastric cancer cells. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the synergistic effects of ampelopsin (AMP) and a chemotherapeutic drug mitomycin (MMC) on the proliferation of gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901.METHODS: SGC-7901 cells were cultured in vitro and divided into 4 groups: control group, AMP group, MMC group and AMP+MMC group. Cell proliferation was measured by MTT method. The apoptotic index was examined by flow cytometry. The expression of apoptotic proteins, Bcl-2 and survivin, was detected by Western blotting.RESULTS: AMP at the concentrations ranging from 2.2 mg/L to 14.84 mg/L exerted inhibitory effect on the growth of SGC-7901 cells. Cell proliferation in AMP (14.84 mg/L) group was inhibitory by (60.85±1.13) %, significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05). The inhibitory rates of cell proliferation varied from (17.40±0.30) % to (72.23±1.36) % when the concentrations of MMC increased from 1×10-3 g/L to 1×10-2 g/L. AMP combined with MMC showed a synergistic effect on the growth of SGC-7901 cells. The inhibitory rates of cell proliferation varied from (21.83±2.50) % to (46.70±1.45) % when the concentrations of MMC increased from 1×10-3g/L to 5×10-3g/L. The inhibitory effect of AMP plus MMC was higher than that of MMC or AMP alone. The protein levels of Bcl-2 and survivin were inhibited in AMP group, MMC group and AMP+MMC group, and were significantly lower in AMP+MMC group than those in AMP group or MMC group.CONCLUSION: AMP enhances the inhibitory effect of MMC on the growth of SGC-7901 cells. The mechanism is related to the inhibition of apoptotic protein expression. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the influence of programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5) on apoptosis and autophagy in the cardiomyocytes exposed to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) and its potential mechanism.METHODS: H9c2 cells were exposed to H/R. PDCD5 was downregulated by RNA interference. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay. TUNEL assay was used to detect cell apoptosis. The mRNA and protein levels were determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot.RESULTS: The expression of PDCD5 was upregulated in the cardiomyocytes after H/R injury. Furthermore, H/R injury obviously reduced the cell viability and enhanced the apoptosis and autophagy of the cardiomyocytes. However, knockdown of PDCD5 increased the cell viability, and attenuated H/R-induced apoptosis, accompany with reduction of Bax and augment of Bcl-2 expression. Additionally, silencing PDCD5 markedly inhibited H/R-induced autophagy by regulating the expression of LC3-II/LC3-I and beclin-1. Moreover, downregulation of PDCD5 suppressed NF-κB signaling by redu-cing the protein level of p-P65.CONCLUSION: Silencing PDCD5 suppresses H/R-induced H9c2 cells apoptosis and autophagy by blocking NF-κB signaling pathway. The result indicates a new strategy for the prevention and treatment of myocardial I/R injury. 相似文献

AIM: To examined the effects of hypoxic preconditioning(HPC) on oxygen-glucose deprivation(OGD)-induced PC12 cells, and to investigate its possible mechanisms of autophagy.METHODS: Cultured PC12 cells were randomly divided into control group, HPC group, 3-methyladenine(3-MA) group, HPC+OGD group, 3-MA+HPC+OGD group and OGD group. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the cell viability. The caspase-3 activity was also tested. TUNEL staining and flow cytometry were used to detect the cell apoptosis. The protein levels of apoptosis-related protein caspase-3 and autophagy-marked protein LC3-2 and beclin-1 were determined by Western blot.RESULTS: Compared with control group, the viability of PC12 cells was significantly reduced, and the activity of caspase-3 was significantly increased in OGD group. Compared with 3-MA+ HPC+OGD group and OGD group, the viability of PC12 cells was significantly increased, and the activity of caspase-3 was significantly reduced in HPC+OGD group(P<0.05). The PC12 cell injury was apparent after OGD with a great increase in the apoptotic rate(P<0.05). Compared with OGD group, the apoptotic rate significantly decreased in HPC+OGD group(P<0.05). Compared with control group, the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 was significantly increased in OGD group(P<0.05). Compared with OGD group, the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 was significantly decreased, and the levels of LC3-2 and beclin-1 were significantly increased in HPC+OGD group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: OGD decreases cell survival and induces apoptosis.Activation of cell autophagy may be the mechanism by which hypoxic preconditioning protects the PC12 cells from OGD induced injury. 相似文献

Effects of miR-337 targeting p53 expression on autophagy and migration ability of colon cancer cells
AIM: To investigate the effect of microRNA-337 (miR-337) on the autophagy and migration ability of colon cancer cells, and to explore its possible mechanism involving targeting p53 expression. METHODS: The me-thod of immunohistochemistry was used to detect the protein expression of beclin-1, LC3B and p53 in colon cancer tissues. The correlations between the protein expression of beclin-1/LC3B and clinicopathological features, and the correlations between the protein expression of p53 and beclin-1/LC3B were analyzed. After knock-down of p53 expression by small interfering RNA, the formation of autophagiosomes was observed under electron microscope in colon cancer cell line HCT116, and the protein expression of beclin-1 and LC3B was determined by Western blot. The miRNAs targeting p53 were predicted and screened by bioinformatics, and their expression in HCT116 cells was verified by RT-qPCR. Luciferase reporter assay was used to detect the regulatory effect of miR-337 on p53 gene. The protein expression of p53, beclin-1 and LC3B was determined by Western blot, and the migration ability of HCT116 cells after miR-337 over-expression was detected by Transwell assay. RESULTS: The protein expression of beclin-1 and LC3B in the colon cancer tissues was decreased, which was significantly related to the occurrence, development, invasion and metastasis of colon cancer. The expression of p53 was increased in the colon cancer tissues, which was negatively correlated with the protein expression of beclin-1 and LC3B. Knock-down of p53 gene expression increased the protein expression of beclin-1 and LC3B (P<0.05). Over-expression of miR-337 down-regulated the expression of p53, up-regulated the protein expression of beclin-1 and LC3B, and decreased the migration ability of HCT116 cells (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: miR-337 promotes autophagy and inhibits migration ability of colon cancer cells, and the mechanism may be related to targeted inhibition of p53 expression. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of MK-2206, an inhibitor of protein kinase B(Akt), on the DNA damage of SGC-7901 cells.METHODS: SGC-7901 cells were treated with different concentrations of MK-2206, and phosphorylated histone H2AX(γ-H2AX) foci formation was detected by immunofluorescence staining. Western blot analysis was used to exam the levels of DNA damage-related protein. The expression of LC3-Ⅱ was determined to evaluate the change of autophagy.RESULTS: MK-2206 treatment increased the formation of γ-H2AX foci and histone H2AX phosphorylation in the SGC-7901 cells. The levels of DNA damage response protein were also increased. In addition, MK-2206-treated SGC-7901 cells increased the expression of LC3-II, a hallmark of autophagy. Inhibition of autophagy significantly enhanced MK-2206-mediated histone H2AX phosphorylation.CONCLUSION: MK-2206 induces DNA damage and autophagy in SGC-7901 cells. Blocking autophagy potentiates the response of MK-2206-induced DNA damage. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of DEK downregulation on the apoptosis of gastric carcinoma SGC-7901 cells, and to explore its associations with NF-κB signaling pathway and apoptosis related proteins. METHODS: SGC-7901 cells with different treatments were divided into 3 groups including untreated group, control siRNA group and DEK siRNA group. The expression of DEK at mRNA and protein levels in the SGC-7901 cells was detected by real-time PCR and Western blot. The cell apoptosis was examined by flow cytometry. Furthermore, the activities of caspase-3 and caspase-9 in the SGC-7901 cells were investigated by Caspase-Glo®-3/9 kit. Finally, the expression of key regulatory protein p65 of NF-κB signaling pathway and apoptosis-related proteins Bcl-2 and Bax in the SGC-7901 cells was investigated by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with untreated group and control siRNA group, the expression of DEK at mRNA and protein levels was significantly downregulated in DEK siRNA group (P<0.05). In addition, the ratios of early phase apoptosis and total apoptosis in DEK siRNA group were markedly higher than those in untreated group and control siRNA group (P<0.05). Most notably, the decrease in p65 and Bcl-2 proteins, increase in Bax protein and the increases of caspase-3 and caspase-9 activities were observed in DEK siRNA group. CONCLUSION: Downregulation of DEK mediates cell apoptosis of gastric carcinoma may be tightly associated with NF-κB signaling pathway. 相似文献

AIM:To observe whether autophagy occurs in curcumin-induced human acute myeloid leukemia KG1a cells in the presence of chemotherapeutic drug cytarabine and the possible mechanism. METHODS:KG1a cells were cultured in vitro. The ultrastructural changes of the cells were observed under transmission electron microscope. Autophagy was detected by acridine orange staining. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay. The cell cycle distribution was analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of autophagy-related molecules beclin-1 and LC3 at mRNA and protein le-vels was determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot. RESULTS:Curcumin dose-dependently inhibited the viability of KG1a cells (P<0.05). The growth inhibition rate in combination group was significantly higher than that in single reagent group and control group (P<0.01). Electron microscopical observation showed that curcumin induced the occurrence of autophagosomes, and cytarabine increased curcumin-induced autophagosomes. Acridine orange staining showed that the combined treatment with cytarabine increased the autophagy induced by curcumin, and the number of autophagic acid vesicles and cells containing autophagic acid vesicles were increased. Curcumin blocked the cell cycle in the G0/G1 phase. The mRNA expression levels of beclin-1 and LC3 in combination group were significantly higher than those in single reagent group and control group(P<0.01). The results of Western blot showed that the protein expression of beclin-1 was significantly up-regulated in combination group (P<0.05), and the ratio of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-I was higher than that in control group (P<0.01). CONCLUSION:Curcumin inhibits the viability of KG1a cells and induces autophagy. Cytarabine promotes autophagy, which is superior to curcumin alone. It may be related to the up-regulation of beclin-1 and LC3-Ⅱ by the two reagents. 相似文献
