Inhibition of Paclitaxel against Neuroglioma Cells U251 Growth and Its Mechanism
نویسندگان
چکیده
BACKGROUND Glioma is the most common primary tumor of the central nervous system, and accounted for about 70% of primary tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS In the study, antitumour activity and mechanism of paclitaxel was investigated. Different concentrations of paclitaxel (200, 300, 400 μmol/L) was treated in neuroglioma cellsU251. RESULTS Paclitaxel significantly inhibited neuroglioma cells growth, and promoted its apoptosis. Paclitaxel can block tumour cells in the G2/M phase. In addition, apoptosis-related genes caspase-3 and bax expressions were increased after paclitaxel treatment. CONCLUSION Our work indicated that paclitaxel displayed strong anti-tumour activity.

Glioblastoma is the most aggressive primary brain tumors originated from the glial cells in adults, which is characterized by stronger migration and invasion. Paclitaxel is an efficient anti-glioblastoma drug for patients in clinical. However, potential molecular mechanism of paclitaxel-inhibited growth and proliferation of glioblastoma has not been well understood yet. In this study, we invest...
متن کاملRadiosensitizing effect of deferoxamine on human glioma cells
ABSTRACT Background: Tumor cells exhibit an increased requirement for iron to support their rapid proliferation. Deferoxamine (DFO), an iron chelator, has been reported to have anti-proliferative effects on cancer cells through induction of apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. X-rays also induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. However, limited information is available regarding the effect of iron...

متن کاملc-Met antisense oligodeoxynucleotides increase sensitivity of human glioma cells to paclitaxel.
Cell culture, tissue chemistry and flow cytometry were used to determine whether antisense c-Met oligodeoxynucleotides enhanced the sensitivity of human glioma cells to paclitaxel. A combination of paclitaxel with antisense c-Met oligodeoxynucleotides inhibited cell growth, induced apoptosis and induced c-Met protein expression in U251 and SHG44 human glioma cells more significantly than either...
