Abstract:
Objective To study the anti-tumor effects of SFPS against human colon cancer cells.Methods Inhibition of the cell proliferation was measured by MTT assay.SFPS induced apoptosis of lovo and RKO cells was observed by electron microscopy and flow cytometry.The potential of SFPS in inhibiting lovo and RKO cells viability was assessed by MTT assay.Results SFPS significantly exhibited antiproliferative activity which depended on dosage.Morphological examination showed chromosomal condensation, karyotheca margination,cell shrinkage and the presence of apoptosis bodies.The overall effect of SFPS on the cell cycle distribution was examined by flow cytometry.However,it was also found that SFPS arrested the human colon cancer cell line RKO at G0/G1 phase,and the RKO cells at S phase decreased significantly,while no change in cell cycle distribution from SFPS treated lovo cells was observed.Conclusion SFPS may induce the apoptosis of lovo and RKO cells in vitro through anti-tumor proliferation.
