OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Radix notoginseng extracts drug-containing serum on the expressions of apoptosis-regulating proteins including Bax, bcl-2 and p21WAF1 in precancerous gastric cells. METHODS: The N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitroso-guanidine (MNNG) transformed eternalized human gastric mucosa epithelium GES-1 cell line (MC cell) was used in vitro as a model of gastric precancerous lesion. The medicated canine serum was prepared by feeding to the adult Beagle dog with Radix notoginseng extracts and obtaining the serum after 2-hour medication. MC cells were cultured with medicated canine serum (medicated serum group) or non-medicated canine serum (normal control group) for 72 hours. Expressions of Bax, bcl-2 and p21WAF1 proteins were detected by immunocytochemical assay and the average optical density of the cells was determined by an image analysis system. RESULTS: Compared with those of the normal control group, Bax and p21WAF1 expressions in medicated serum group were significantly enhanced (P<0.01), while the expression of bcl-2 was significantly reduced (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Radix notoginseng extracts may inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of precancerous gastric cells through altering expressions of the bcl-2, Bax and p21WAF1 genes.

OBJECTIVE: To study the apoptosis-promoting effect of the serum from Panax notoginseng extracts-fed dog on precancerous gastric cells by means of flow cytometry. METHODS: In the experiment, we adopted eternalized human gastric mucosa epithelium GES-1 cells transformed by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitroso-guanidine (MNNG) (MC cells) as the model of precancerous lesions for study in vitro. We took the serum of a dog before and at two different points of time (2 and 6 hours) after feeding the dog with Panax notoginseng extracts for experiment. The MC cells were cultured in mediums with different concentrations of the medicated serum at 2- or 6-hour point of time for 72 hours. By means of flow cytometry, we examined the apoptosis-promoting effects of the serums on the MC cells. RESULTS: The medicated serums at these 2 points of time had significant effects in promoting MC cell apoptosis. The proportions of apoptotic cells in culture mediums with medicated serums had a significant increase as compared with those in culture mediums with non-medicated serums (serum obtained before administration of extracts to the dog) under the same conditions (P<0.05). The number of MC cells in G(0)/G(1)phase was decreased (P<0.05) and that in G(2)/M phase increased (P<0.05), while no consistent changes were observed in S phase. CONCLUSION: The medicated serums obtained at the two different points of time have significant apoptosis-promoting effects on MC cells. They decrease the number of MC cells in G(0)/G(1) phase and increase the number of MC cells in G(2)/M phase. This is probably responsible for the effects of Panax notoginseng extracts in inhibiting the proliferation of MC cells and promoting its apoptosis.

OBJECTIVE: Through cell cultivation, we studied the inhibiting effects of the serum of the dog fed with Panax notoginseng extracts on precancerous gastric cells, trying to find the best time points or periods when the extracts' function was the strongest after administration of the extracts to the dog. METHODS: The experiments adopted eternalized human gastric mucosa epithelium GES-1 cells and MC cells gained from GES-1 cells transformed by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitroso-guanidine (MNNG) as the model of precancerous lesions for study in vitro. We took the serum of a dog before and at different points of time after feeding the dog with Panax notoginseng extracts for experiment. By means of MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay, we examined the inhibiting effects of the serum after culturing the GES-1 and MC cells for 72 hours with different concentration (8%, 4%, 2%) of medicated serum obtained from the dog at different points of time, so as to find that, at which points of time the medicated serum obtained, it would be the most effective. RESULTS: The results showed that the GES-1 and MC cells inhibition rates of medicated serum from the points of 2-hour and 6-hour were the highest, and the culture medium containing 8% of medicated serum from these two points had prominent inhibiting effects on both kinds of cells. The GES-1 cells inhibition rate in culture medium containing 8% of medicated serum from the point of 2-hour was 70.8% (P<0.01) and that of the MC cells was 45.3% (P<0.01). The GES-1 cells inhibition rate in culture medium containing 8% of medicated serum from the point of 6-hour was 88.5%(P<0.01) and that of the MC cells was 42.4% (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The points of time with the strongest inhibiting effects are 2 hours and 6 hours after being fed with Panax notoginseng extracts. At these two points, the serum is most effective in inhibiting the proliferation of GES-1 and MC cells.
