Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of neferine on the proliferation and apoptosis of HepG2 cells. Methods: The effect of neferine on the proliferation of HepG2 cells was determined by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), the morphology of HepG2 cells with Hoechst33258 staining was observed under a fluorescent microscope,the degree of damage to HepG2 cells was observed by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) kit,Annexin V /propidium iodide (PI) and PI/Rnase were used to analyze the apoptosis and the cell cycle. Results:Neferine could inhibit the proliferation of HepG2 cells in a dose and time-dependent manner,and the degree of damage to the cell membrane increased with the dose of the drug. The results of Hoechst33258 staining and flow cytometry (FCM) indicated that HepG2 cells were arrested in G0/G1phase and the apoptotic rate increased with the concentration increase of neferine.Conclusion:Neferine can inhibit the growth and proliferation of HepG2 cells in a dose and time-dependent manner, induce it arrested in G0/G1 phase and induce the late apoptosis of HepG2 cells.
