Studies of the mechanism and inhibitory effect of aescine on SGC-7901 cells in vitro

Aim To study the mechanism and inhibi-tory effect of Aescine on SGC-7901 cells in vitro.Methods MTT method was used to detect SGC-7901 proliferation.Flow cytometer method was used to determine cell cycles.AnnexinⅤ-FITC apoptosis derection kit was used to detect apoptosis of cells.Western blot was employed to analyze the expression of Bcl-2.Results MTT result showed that Aescine could significantly inhibit the growth of SGC-7901.AnnexinⅤ-FITC apoptosis derection kit and Western blot results suggested that Aescine could induce the apoptosis of SGC-7901.Conclusions Aescine can inhibit the growth of SGC-7901 and induce the apoptosis of cells in vitro.
