Abstract:
Aim To investigate the anti-proliferation effect of resveratrol (Res)on human colon cancer cells and dissect the possible mechanism underlaying this effect.Methods We introduced crystal violet staining and Western blot to analyse the anti-proliferation effect of Res on HCT1 1 6 cells.Then,we used flow cytome-try and Western blot assay to detect the Res induced apoptosis in HCT1 1 6 cells.Next,we employed the well established TCF4 /LEF luciferase reporter to meas-ure the effect of Res on Wnt/β-catenin signaling trans-duction.Finally,we took Western blot and PCR assay to analyse the effect of Res on the expression of β-cate-nin in HCT1 1 6 cells.Results Crystal violet staining and Western blot analysis showed that Res could inhib-it the proliferation of HCT1 1 6 cells in a concentration-and time dependent fashion.What’s more,Res could promote apoptosis in HCT1 1 6 cells.The transcriptional activities of TCF4 /LEF reporter were reduced by Res in a concentration-dependent fashion (P <0.05 when the concentration of Res was 20 μmol·L -1 ,and P <0.01 when the concentration of Res was 40 μmol·L -1 or 80 μmol·L -1 ).Res could decrease not only the protein level of β-catenin in HCT1 1 6 cells,but also the mRNA expression of β-catenin.Conclusion Res can inhibit the proliferation of HCT1 1 6 cells,which may be mediated at least by down-regulating the ex-pression of β-catenin to inhibit the Wnt/β-catenin sig-naling transduction.
