Objective To study the inhibitory effect of methylmercury chloride(MMC) on rat C6 glioma cells in vitro.Methods The rat C6 glioma cells were cultivated in vitro and divided into control group and MMC-treated group(0.08-10.00 ?mol?L-1 MMC were divided into 8 groups with concentration gradient).MTT assay was performed to evaluate the proliferation inhibitory effect and cytotoxicity effect of MMC with different concentrations on cultured rat C6 glioma cells,and flow cytometry was used to assess the effects of MMC treatment on cell apoptosis and cell cycle in rat C6 glioma cells.Results 1.25,2.50,5.00 and 10.00 ?mol?L-1 MMC could inhibit the proliferation of cultured rat C6 glioma cells in vitro,the viabilities of MMC treated C6 glioma cells were significantly lower than those in control group(P

【Objective】 Selenium (Se) contents of some chemical forms as total Se,inorganic Se,organic Se and selenomethionine (SeMet) in rice e nriched-Se were determined, in order to provide scientific basis for applying r ice enriched-Se to cancer prevention. 【Methods】 Fluorometric determination wi th 2,3-diaminonaphthalene (2,3-DAN) for total Se, inorganic Se and organic Se, and with CNBr-2,3-DAN for SeMet. 【Results】 Total Se contents of rice enrich ed-Se reaping in summer and autumn were (2.71±0.97) μg/g, (9.87±1.18 ) μg/g, respectively, both higher than that of ordinary rice (P<0.001); the organic Se occupying over 99% of total Se were 2.68, 9.77 μg/g, respectively . Main component of the organic Se was SeMet, and its Se content (Se-SeMet) was (1.45±0.67) μg/g for rice enriched-Se reaping in summer, (4.96±0.98) μ g/g in autumn,and their contents/total Se contents were 53.5, 50.5 %, respecti vely. 【Conclusions】 Most part of Se in rice enriched-Se was natural organic Se and main component of the organic Se was SeMet.
