Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of bortezomib combined with doxorubicin on lymphoblastic lymphoma cell line Molt-4.Methods Molt-4 cells were cultured in the presence of bortezomib and doxorubicin,cell viability was monitored by CCK-8 and trypan-blue exclusion.Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry and mitochondrial membrane potential,expression of Fas was also measured with flow cytometry.Results Molt-4 cell proliferation was substantially inhibited in concentration-dependent manners when treated with either bortezomib or doxorubicin.The combination of both drugs synergistically inhibited Molt-4 cell proliferation at 48 hours [(57.24±0.10) %].Combination therapy further enhanced bortezomib and doxorubicin induced apoptosis [48 h (23.08±1.25) %] (P < 0.05).Detection of mitochondrial membrane potential showed that combination therapy could promote apoptosis (15.84 %,5.38 %,5.52 %) but did not significantly change the level of Fas expression (P > 0.05).Conclusion Combination therapy of bortezomib with doxorubicin efficiently inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis of Molt-4 cells.Activation of mitochondrial and intrinsic apoptotic pathway may play important roles.
