摘要
背景:肝细胞癌(HCC)中有环氧合酶(COX)鄄2表达,非甾体抗炎药阿司匹林可能通过抑制COX鄄2的表达而抑制HCC生长。目的:比较3种选择性COX鄄2抑制剂美洛昔康、赛来昔布和罗非昔布对人肝癌细胞株SMMC鄄7721生长的影响,观察高选择性COX鄄2抑制剂罗非昔布对裸鼠HCC原位移植瘤生长的影响。方法:采用3H鄄胸腺嘧啶核苷(3H鄄TdR)掺入检测SMMC鄄7721细胞的DNA合成情况;采用免疫细胞化学染色检测增殖细胞核抗原(PCNA)的表达;采用DNA原位末端标记(TUNEL)染色检测细胞凋亡。给予HCC原位移植瘤裸鼠罗非昔布每日30mg/kg8周,测量肿瘤体积和重量。结果:美洛昔康、赛来昔布和罗非昔布均能显著抑制SMMC鄄7721细胞的3H鄄TdR掺入,其抑制作用呈剂量依赖性,50%抑制浓度(IC50)分别为8.55×10-8mol/L、1.22×10-8mol/L和6.27×10-9mol/L。3种选择性COX鄄2抑制剂(1×10-5mol/L)作用24h均可明显降低SMMC鄄7721细胞的PCNA表达,使细胞凋亡指数较对照组显著增高(14.6%±2.8%、21.6%±3.6%和27.1%±3.5%对1.0%±0.7%,P<0.01),COX鄄2抑制剂的选择性越高,凋亡指数也越高(P<0.01)。罗非昔布组裸鼠的HCC原位移植瘤显著小于对照组,体积抑瘤率和重量抑瘤率分别为73.2%和78.1%。结论:3种选择性COX鄄2抑制剂均能在体外有效抑制SMMC鄄7721细胞的生?
Background: Expression of cyclooxygenase(COX)-2can be detected in the hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Aspirin,a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug,can inhibit the growth of HCC probably through the inhibition of COX-2expression.Aims:To compare the effects of three kinds of selective COX-2inhibitors(meloxicam,celecoxib and rofecoxib)on the growth of human liver cancer cell line SMMC-7721,and to observe the effect of rofecoxib,a highly selective COX-2inhibitor,on the growth of HCC implanted in the liver of nude mice.Methods:The DNA synthesis of SMMC-7721cells was determined by 3 H-thymidine( 3 H-TdR)incorporation method.The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)was detected by immunocytochemistry.The terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling(TUNEL)assay was used to detect cell apoptosis.Rofecoxib(30mg/kg per day)was administered to HCC implanted nude mice for eight weeks,the volume and weight of the xenografts in situ were measured.Results: Meloxicam,celecoxib and rofecoxib could decrease the 3 H-TdR incorporation significantly in a dose-dependent manner in SMMC-7721cells.Their50%inhibitory concentration(IC 50 )were8.55×10 -8 mol/L,1.22×10 -8 mol/L and6.27×10 -9 mol/L,respectively.After treated with the above three selective COX-2inhibitors(1×10 -5 mol/L)for24hours,the expression of PCNA in SMMC-7721cells were decreased,and the apoptosis index was significantly increased compared with that of the controls(14.6%±2.8%,21.6%±3.6%and27.1%±3.5%vs.1.0%±0.7%,P<0.01).The higher the selectivity of COX-2,the higher the apoptosis index(P<0.01).The xenografts in situ in nude mice treated with rofecoxib were significantly smaller than those of the controls,and the inhibition rates were73.2%in volume and78.1%in weight. Conclusions:All three kinds of selective COX-2inhibitors can effectively inhibit the growth of SMMC-7721cells in vitro in proportion to their selectivity. The inhibition of HCC growth in vivo by rofecoxib suggests it may be an effective drug in the treatment of HCC.
