Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the influence of combined application of histone deacetylase inhibitor(HDACi)MS-275 and 5-FU on the apoptosis and cycle arrest on human hepatoma cell line HepG2 and unclose the related mechanism.Methods:Divided all the cells into 4 groups:control group,MS-275 group,5-FU group and drug combination group.Flow cytometry(FCM)was used to examine the effects of 5-FU with MS-275 on the apoptosis and cell cycle of HepG2 cells.Bcl-2,Bax,CyclinD1 and P21 protein were determined by Western blot assay.Results:5-FU and MS-275 combination could inhibit HepG2 cell growth through G0-G1 arrest,and induce apoptosis,both time and dose dependently.The combination of two agents increased P21 protein levels and decreased Bcl-2,CyclinD1 protein levels.The levels of Bax protein were not changed.Conclusion:The combination of 5-FU and MS-275 can induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest,the effect might be associated with down-regulating expression of Cyclin D1 and Bcl-2 protein and upregulating the expression of P21 protein.
