Abstract:
Objective To investigate the sensitivities of distinct gastric cancer cells to parvovirus H-1 induced cytotoxicity and its possible mechanisms. Methods Six distinct differentiated gastric cancer cell lines were employed in this study, including HGC27 (undifferentiated), BGC823(undifferentiated), MKN45(poor differentiated), AGS (poor differentiated), SGC7901(moderate differentiated) and MKN28 (well differentiated). The cell cycle distributions were measured by flow cytometry. The differential sensitivities of six distinct gastric cancer cells after H-1 virus infection were detected by MTT analysis. The RT-PCR was employed to detect viral NS-1 gene expression in all six gastric cancer cell lines. Results The S phase ratios of HGC27, BGC823, MKN45, AGS, SGC7901 and MKN28 were 24.72%, 30.15%, 27.10%, 29.03%, 31.82% and 33.73% respectively. HGC27 cells were sensitive to H-1 virus induced cytotoxicity followed by SGC7901 cells. MKN45 and AGS cells were moderately sensitive. MKN28 cells were insensitive. However, BGC823 cells were resistant to H-1 virus induced cytotoxicity. The expressions of viral NS-1 were higher in HGC27, BGC823, MKN45 and SGC7901 cells, whilst NS-1 gene expressions were lower in AGS and MKN28 cells. Conclusions The sensitivities of distinct gastric cancer cells to H-1 virus induced cytotoxicity could be markedly different. In general, the poorly differentiated cells showed an enhanced sensitivity to H-1 virus attack as compared to well differentiated ones. The enhanced sensitivity of poorly-versus well-differentiated gastric cancer cells to H-1 virus is due to at least in part, to the enhanced capacity of the former cells for NS-1 protein production and accumulation. The undifferentiated BGC823 cells were resistant to H-1 virus triggered cytotoxicity. It may further verify that not all the tumor cells were sensitive to H-1 virus lytic effects.
