[ Method] By using MTT method, the activities of anti-hepatocellular carcinoma SMMC-7721 in vitro from Cymbopogon distans, Lobelia chinensis, Buddleja offlcinalis, Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Sanguisorba officinalis, Bupleurum chinense, Apium graveolen and Curuma zedoaria were tested. The growth curve of hepatoma cell was described, and the growth status in different periods were observed by inverted microscope. [ Result] Cells induced by active substance would be condensing, clear brim, which have significant differences from normal SMMC- 7721 cells. The results suggested that ESCG, ESCC, ESCB could inhibit proliferation of SMMC-7721 cells at the concentration of 1.0 -1.5 mg/ml, and the inhibition rate were 51.6%, 48.5%, 52.9% respectively. With the increasing of concentration, the inhibition strengthened. [ Conclusion] MTT method could be used as a basic model for screening important anti-hepatoma.展开更多

The result of biological test shows that some of resveratrol derivatives possess stronger anti-cancer activities than 5-FU. Compound 5c shows the strongest activity against breast carcinoma (MDA-MB-231) and gastric carcinoma cell lines (SGC-7901) with IC50 value of 50.19 ± 1.02 μM, 122.68.27 ± 2.04 μM, compared to that IC50 value of 5-FU is 98.59±3.61 μM,156.74±6.16 μM, respectively.展开更多

Six Streptomyces strains （MA10, 2SHXF01-3, MA35, MA05-2, MA05-2-1 and MA08-1） and one Nocardiopsis strain （MA03） were predicted to have the potential to produce aromatic polyketides based on the analysis of the KSa （ketoacyl-synthase） gene in the type II PKS （polyketides synthase） gene cluster. Four strains （MA03, MA01, MA10 and MA05-2） exhibited significant inhibitory effects on mycelia growth （inhibition rate 〉50%） and subsequent aria- toxin production （inhibition rate 〉75%） of the mutant aflatoxigenic Aspergillus parasiticus NFRI-95. The ethyl acetate extracts of the broth of these four strains displayed significant inhibitory effects on mycelia growth, and the IC50 values were calculated （MA03： 0.275 mg mL-1, MA01：0.106 mg mL-1, MA10：1.345 mg mL-1 and MA05-2：1.362 mg mL-1）. Five strains （2SHXF01-3, MA03, MA05-2, MA01 and MA08-1） were selected based on their high cytotoxic activities. The ethyl acetate extract of the Nocardiopsis strain MA03 was particularly noted for its high antitumor activity against human carcinomas of the cervix （HeLa）, lung （A549）, kidney （Caki-1） and liver （HepG2） （IC50： 2.890, 1.981, 3.032 and 2.603 μgmL-1, respectively）. The extract also remarkably inhibited colony formation of HeLa cells at an extremely low concentration （0.5μgmL 1）. This study highlights that marine-derived actinomycetes are a huge resource of compounds for the biological control of aflatoxin contamination and the development of novel drugs for human carcinomas.展开更多

Methods: the crude venom separated and purified by cation exchange chromatography, and the effect of venoms on K562 was studied by MTT method and flow cytometry. Results: The crude venom began to kill K562 cells at than 8×l03ng/ml (the survival rate was 82.5%) concentration and the effect was more significant in 24 h when administrating 8×l05ng/ml (the survival rate was 29.4%) crude venom. Apoptotic bodies were observed in the K562 tumor cells by fluorescent microscopy after administration of 5 μg/ml cycloheximide (CHX) or the peak VI solution at about 8×105 ng/ml. The same results were detected by the flow cytometry. A sub-Gi peak appeared after administration of CHX or the sixth peak solution. Conclusion: The authors found that the venom can kill K562 tumor cells in time- and dose-dependent manner. However, the killing effect of the venom is not apoptosis. What’s more, the peak VI solution, a component of the crude venom can induce the apoptosis of K562 tumor cells.展开更多
