Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of 5-Aza-CdR on the proliferation and apoptosis of colon cancer cells and the expression of PTEN and to explore its mechanism Methods Different concentrations of 5-Aza-CdR (1, 2, 5,10 μmol/L) were used in vitro on HT-29 cells and the proliferation was detected by MTT assay and the apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. PTEN mRNA and protein expression changes were observed by real-time PCR and Western blot. Results Different concentrations of 5-Aza-CdR (2, 5,10 μmol/L) could inhibit the proliferation of HT-29 cells with dose and time dependent manner. With the increase of time and dose, the inhibition rate of HT-29 cells increased gradually and the difference was significant. (P < 0.05). After 5-Aza-CdR treated for 48h , the apoptosis rates of HT-29 cells in control and 1 , 2 , 5 , 10 μmol/L group were 2.443 ± 0.210 1, 3.900 ± 0.665 1, 14.07 ± 1.206, 24.70 ± 2.506, and 30.60 ± 2.390 respectively, which were significantly increased and the apoptosis rate increased with the increase of dose , which was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The PTEN mRNA and protein expression of HT-29 cells were gradually increased when treated by different concentrations of 5-Aza-CdR. Conclusion 5-Aza-CdR might induce the expression of PTEN by demethylation and then inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis of HT-29 cells.
