Abstract:
Aim To study the inhibitory effects and its mechanisms of oridonin on human pancreas adenocarcinoma SW1990 cells.Methods Cell growth inhibition mediated by oridonin on SW1990cells was measured by MTT assay.The morphological changes were observed by Hoechst33258 fluorochrome staining and electron microscope.Cell cycle and apoptosis rate were analyzed by flow cytometry. The molecular mechanisms involved in the effects of oridonin on SW1990 cells were studied by RT-PCR.Results The growth of humen pancreas adenocarcinoma SW1990 cells was significantly inhibited by oridonin.Apoptosis morphological changes about chromatic agglutination and nuclear condensation were detected by Hoechst 33258 fluorochrome staining and electron microscope in oridonin treated SW1990 cells."Sub-G_1" phase peak and G_2/M growth arrest werer found with flow cytometry.The upregulating mRNA expression of p21 and downregulating mRNA expression of survivin were detected by RT-PCR.Conclusion The inhibitory effect of oridonin on human pancreas adenocarcinoma SW1990 cells through induced apoptosis and G_2/M growth arrest and the mechanisms may be through surviving-p21 co-regluation pathway.
