Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Nitrogen monoxide (NO) plays dual effects in the occurrence and development of tumor. High concentration of NO exerts anticancer effect through cellular cytotoxicity and inducing the apoptosis of tumor; under the changed microenvironment in tumor tissue, its effect on tumor tissue is mainly promoting the growth of tumor.OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of the nitric oxide synthase(NOS)inhibitor NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester(L-NAME) on invasion and metastasis of human colorectal cancer cell line LS174T.DESIGN: Single sample observationSETTING: Department of Surgery, Tumor Hospital affiliated to Harbin Medical University MATERIALS: The study was conducted in Cancer Research Institute of Harbin Medical University between January 2004 and October 2004. The human colorectal cancer cell line LS174T was purchased from Cancer Research Institute of Harbin Medical University. L-NAME was purchased from Sigma Company.METHODS: LS174T cells were treated with L-NAME of 0.2,0.4,0.8 and 1.0 mmol/L. Effect of drugs on invasion and migration of LS174T cells was observed in reconstructed basement membrane invading experiment.MAIN OUTCOME MEASRES: Inhibitory rate of L-NAME on LS174T line invading reconstructed basement membrane and the inhibitory rate of cellular migration.RESULTS: ①0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.0 mmoL/L L-NAME were used to treate LS174T cells for 72 hours, and the inhibitory rate in cell invading reconstructed basement membrane was 10.29%, 19.62%, 34.08%,42.23% respectively (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01 ). ② 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.0 mmol/L L-NAME were used to treate LS174T cell for 72 hours , its inhibitory rate in inhibiting cells migration was 20.76%,24.95%,39.43%,46.85% respectively(P ＜ 0.01 ).CONCLUSION: L-NAME has anti-invasive and anti-metastasic effects on LS174T cells.
