Abstract:
Objective To observe caesalpinia sappan aqueous extract's growth inhibiting and apoptosis inducing effects on human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3. Methods Cell growth inhibiting effect was detected by cytometry; Examined were by trypan blue staining under a light microscope; Electronic microscopy was used to observe ultrastructure of SKOV3 cell affected by caesalpinia sappan aqueous extract's;With different concentration of caesalpinia sappan aqueous extract's acting on cells, cells cycle and apoptosis rate were analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM). Results The growth of SKOV3 was inhibited effectively by caesalpinia sappan aqueous extract's; typical morphology of apoptosis (cell shrinkage, chromatin condensation and apoptotic body formation) were observed and in a concentration-dependent manner. Flow cytometry detection showed: the experiment in vitro revealed growth of SKOV3 after treatment by caesalpinia sappan aqueous extract's at the different concentration. Apoptosis rate was increased with the increasing of the concentration of caesalpinia sappan aqueous extract's. Conclusion Caesalpinia sappan aqueous extract's can obviously inhibit growth of human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3 and induce its apoptosis.
