Description | Ergosta-4,6,8(14),22-tetraen-3-one has cytotoxic activity against human gastric cancer cell, it can induce G2/M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells, these results would be useful for the further utilization of man |
In vitro | Ergone possessed a remarkable anti-proliferative activity toward human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells. We assayed the cell cycle by flow cytometry using PI staining; investigated the exposure of phosphatidylserine at the outer layer of the cytoplasmic membrane by the FITC-annexin V/PI staining; observed the nuclear fragmentation by Hoechst 33258 staining and studied the protein expression of Bax, Bcl-2, p-53, procaspase-3, -8, -9, PARP and cleaved PARP by Western blotting analysis. Cells treated with ergone showed typical markers of apoptosis: G2/M cell cycle arrest, chromatin condensation, nuclear fragmentation, and phosphatidylserine exposure. Furthermore, PARP-cleavage; activation of caspase-3, -8, -9; up-regulation of Bax and down-regulation of Bcl-2 were observed in HepG2 cells treated with ergone, which show that both the intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways are involved in ergone-induced apoptosis in HepG2 cells. Ergosta-4,6,8(14),22-tetraen-3-one induces G2/M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in HepG2 cells in a caspase-dependent manner[1] |
