Abstract:
AIM To study the effect of Topotecan(TPT) on cell cycle and apoptosis of hunman lung cancer SPC A 1 cells and the role of Caspase 3 and bcl 2 involved in TPT induced apoptosis. METHODS Cells were incubated with TPT(5,10,15 and 20 mg?L -1 ) for 24 h. Apoptosis was detected by TUNEL staining, electronic microscope and DNA agarose gel electropheresis. Flow cytometer was used to analyse cell cycle changes and to detect apoptotic rates and bcl 2 expression of cells treated with TPT or TPT and 50 ?mol?L -1 Ac DEVD CHO(specific Caspase 3 inhibitor). RESULTS Apoptosis of cells treated with TPT(5 mg?L -1 ) was not detected, but apoptosis rates increased with the increase of TPT concentration and there was significant difference between each concentration group( P
