Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of baicalin in human colon cancer SW480 cells,and to clarify its mechanism.Methods The SW480 cells were cultured and divided into blank control and 25,50 and 100 μmol·L-1 baicalin groups.The proliferation activity was detected with CCK-8 assay.The morphological changes of SW480 cells were detected by Annexin Ⅴ-FITC and DAPI coloration.The protein expression levels of Bcl-2,caspase 3 and caspase 9 were detected by Western blotting method. Results The CCK-8 assay results showed that the proliferation activities of SW480 cells in 25,50 and 100 μmol· L-1 baicalin groups were decreased significantly compared with blank control group at the time points of 24 h,48 h and 72 h (P <0.01),the proliferation activities of SW480 cells in 25 μmol·L-1 baicalin groups were decreased significantly compared with blank control group at the time points of 48 and 72 h (P <0.01).Cell shrinkage and nucleus fragmentation were observed in the SW480 cells after treated with 50 μmol·L-1 baicalin for 48 h.The Western blotting assay results showed that compared with blank control group,the protein expression levels of caspase 3 and caspase 9 in 25,50 and 100 μmol· L-1 baicalin groups were increased significantly (P <0.05 or P <0.01),and the protein expression levels of Bcl 2 in 25, 50 and 100 μmol·L-1 baicalin groups were decreased significantly (P <0.05 or P <0.01).Conclusion Baicalin can induce the apoptosis in SW480 cells,and the effect might be involved with the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway.
