Established lines of human colon cancer cells from several sources (LS180, LS174T, HT29, SW480, SW1345) had water proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spin-lattice relaxation times (T1) of 460 +/- 45 msec to 982 +/- 9 msec and spin-spin relaxation times (T2) of 83 +/- 6 msec to 176 +/- 6 msec. Two clones derived from single cells of line LS174T were similar in T1 and T2 to the parent line. Differences among the cell lines were not totally a function of cellular hydration. Normal adult and fetal human primary colon cells were wetter and had higher T1 and T2 values than established cell lines. Relaxation times in this study substantiate variations seen for human colon tumors in earlier studies. Established cell lines maintained water relaxation times similar to tumor tissue values. Along with other morphological and biochemical criteria, the relaxation times suggest that these established human colon cancer cell lines may serve as a good experimental model for the study of human colon cancer. 相似文献

Eugenol, a natural compound available in honey and various plants extracts including cloves and Magnoliae flos, is exploited for various medicinal applications. Since most of the drugs used in the cancer are apoptotic inducers, the apoptotic effect and anticancer mechanism of eugenol were investigated against colon cancer cells. Antiproliferative effect was estimated using MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide assay]. Earlier events like MMP (mitochondrial membrane potential), thiol depletion and lipid layer break were measured by using flow cytometry. Apoptosis was evaluated using PI (propidium iodide) staining, TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labelling) assay and DNA fragmentation assay. MTT assay signified the antiproliferative nature of eugenol against the tested colon cancer cells. PI staining indicated increasing accumulation of cells at sub-G1-phase. Eugenol treatment resulted in reduction of intracellular non-protein thiols and increase in the earlier lipid layer break. Further events like dissipation of MMP and generation of ROS (reactive oxygen species) were accompanied in the eugenol-induced apoptosis. Augmented ROS generation resulted in the DNA fragmentation of treated cells as shown by DNA fragmentation and TUNEL assay. Further activation of PARP (polyadenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase), p53 and caspase-3 were observed in Western blot analyses. Our results demonstrated molecular mechanism of eugenol-induced apoptosis in human colon cancer cells. This research will further enhance eugenol as a potential chemopreventive agent against colon cancer. 相似文献

Activin A has been reported to play a role in the progression of colorectal cancer. Because dietary fiber protects against colorectal cancer, we hypothesized that butyrate, a fermentation product of dietary fiber, may affect the expression of activin A in colon cancer cells. Semiquantitative RT-PCR demonstrated that the activin A gene was upregulated by sodium butyrate in the human colon cancer cell lines HT-29 and Caco-2 in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. However, the activin A gene did not respond to sodium butyrate in the human normal colonic cell line FHC, rat normal intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) line IEC-6, and the explant of rat colon. Flow cytometry and agarose gel electrophoresis of genomic DNA revealed that cell cycle arrest and apoptosis were induced by sodium butyrate but not exogenous activin A in HT-29 cells, indicating that activin A could not act as an autocrine factor in colon cancer cells. By assuming that activin A promotes colorectal cancer spread as a paracrine factor, our findings suggest that butyrate could act as a tumor promoter in some circumstances. 相似文献

Background
We performed a comparative analysis of the genome-wide DNA methylation profiles from three human embryonic stem cell (HESC) lines. It had previously been shown that HESC lines had significantly higher non-CG methylation than differentiated cells, and we therefore asked whether these sites were conserved across cell lines. 相似文献5.

Retinoid resistance has limited the clinical application of retinoids as differentiation-inducing and apoptosis-inducing drugs.
This study was designed to investigate whether celecoxib, a selective COX-2 inhibitor, has effects on retinoid sensitivity
in human colon cancer cell lines, and to determine the possible mechanism of said effects. Cell viability was measured using
the MTT assay. Apoptosis was detected via Annexin-V/PI staining and the flow cytometry assay. PGE2 production was measured with the ELISA assay. The expression of RARβ was assayed via western blotting. The results showed
that celecoxib enhanced the inhibitory effect of ATRA in both COX-2 high-expressing HT-29 and COX-2 low-expressing SW480 cell
lines. Further study showed the ATRA and celecoxib combination induced greater apoptosis, but that the addition of PGE2 did not affect the enhanced growth-inhibitory and apoptosis-inducing effects of the combination. Moreover, NS398 (another
selective COX-2 inhibitor) did not affect the inhibitory effects of ATRA in the two cell lines. Western blotting showed that
the expression of RARβ in HT-29 cell lines was increased by celecoxib, but not by NS398, and that the addition of PGE2 did not affect the celecoxib-induced expression of the retinoic acid receptor beta. In conclusion, celecoxib increased the
expression of RARβ and the level of cellular ATRA sensitivity through COX-2-independent mechanisms. This finding may provide
a potential strategy for combination therapy. 相似文献

The effects of selenium were investigated on three human colon cancer cell lines: Caco 2, HRT 18, and HT 29. At low concentrations (10-100 nM), selenium stimulated cell growth in serum-free medium. Thus, selenium is an essential trace element for cell proliferation. At higher concentrations, selenium inhibited cell growth. The rate of 75Se uptake was the same in all of the cell lines studied, but the quantity incorporated differed. GSH-Px activity was dependent on the selenium content of the medium. DNA and protein synthesis paralleled the growth curve. Comparison with the curve of viability revealed that selenium inhibited cell growth in two ways: by inhibiting DNA synthesis, without affecting cell viability, and, at higher doses, by cytotoxicity. 相似文献

Incidence of colon cancer has increased rapidly in China. Although many colon cancer cell lines have been established previously,
most of them were derived from patients from western countries. Epidemiological, clinical, cytogenetic, and molecular biological
studies showed that there are considerable differences between Chinese and western countries colon cancer patients. Therefore,
establishment of novel colon cancer cell line from Chinese is useful for studying the racial difference of this disease and
can be important for studying the pathogenesis of colon cancer in China. In our laboratory, two novel continuous human colon
cancer cell lines, SHT-1 and SHH-1, have been established in vitro from Chinese patients, and both cell lines have been passaged
for 4 yr, and they have been continuously subcultured with more than 800 population doubling and without signs of senescence.
Both cell lines were obtained from primary tumor tissues during colon cancer surgery. Cells grew rapidly with a doubling time
of 36–39 h and a plating efficiency of 26–28%. These cells exhibited an epithelial morphology and expressed cytokeratin. Tumor
developed in severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice 4–6 wk after inoculated subcutaneously with the cultured cancer cells.
Karyotypic analysis and comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analysis in SHT-1 cells revealed a hypertriploid modal number
of 76 with numerous numerical and structural abnormalities previously linked to colon cancer. In another cell line (SHH-1),
CGH analysis revealed that −1p13 was the only cytogenetic anomaly. 相似文献

Althoughaccumulating evidence suggests a chemopreventive role for folic acid incolon cancer, the regulation of this process in unknown. We hypothesizethat supplemental folic acid exerts its chemopreventive role byinhibiting mucosal hyperproliferation, an event considered to becentral to the initiation of carcinogenesis in the gastrointestinaltract. The present investigation examines the effect of supplementalfolic acid on proliferation of Caco-2 and HCT-116 colon cancer celllines. Furthermore, because certain tyrosine kinases, particularlyepidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), play a role in regulating cellproliferation, we also examined the folic acid-induced changes intyrosine kinase activity and expression of EGFR. In Caco-2 and HCT-116cells, maintained in RPMI 1640 medium containing 1 µg/ml folic acid,we observed that the supplemental folic acid inhibited proliferation ina dose-dependent manner. Pretreatment of HCT-116 and Caco-2 cell lineswith supplemental folic acid (1.25 µg/ml) completely abrogated transforming growth factor- (TGF-)-induced proliferation in bothcell lines. Tyrosine kinase activity and the relative concentration ofEGFR were markedly diminished in both cell lines following a 24-hexposure to supplemental folic acid. The folic acid-induced inhibitionof EGFR tyrosine kinase activity in colon cancer cell lines was alsoassociated with a concomitant reduction in the relative concentrationof the 14-kDa membrane-bound precursor form of TGF-. In conclusion,our data suggest that supplemental folic acid is effective in reducingproliferation in two unrelated colon cancer cell lines and that EGFRtyrosine kinase appears to be involved in regulating this process. 相似文献

Gastric, hepatic, and pulmonary cancer cell lines, and the third passage of normal gastric and pulmonary cell lines were analyzed by proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE) method. The contents of element Sr, Ca, Fe, Zn, P, K, Cu, and As in the cell lines were determined. The Sr, Ca, Fe, Zn, and As contents in cancer cell lines were significantly lower than those in the normal cell lines (p less than 0.05), whereas there were no significant differences for the P, K, and Cu contents (p greater than 0.1). The results suggest that the need of some essential elements has been diminished in cancer cell proliferation. 相似文献

To determine the effect of anesthetics on liver relaxation times in rat, two experiments were performed. In the first experiment, normal and protein-depleted rats underwent total hepatectomy under ether anesthesia or following decapitation. In the second experiment, livers were excised from normal rats under ketamine or pentobarbital anesthesia, or following decapitation. Hepatic T1 and T2 were measured for all animals using a RADX 10 MHz spin analyzer. Ketamine produced T1 values significantly different from decapitation. Ketamine, pentobarbital, and ether in normal animals all produced T2 values significantly different from decapitation. It is apparent that anesthetization of rats prior to in vitro measurement of hepatic relaxation times is not equivalent to decapitation; nor are the anesthetics examined equivalent to one another. 相似文献

The cell lines SW480 and SW620, derived from different stages of colon carcinoma in the same patient, have been used for a number of biochemical, immunological, and genetic studies on colon cancer. A comparative analysis of their karyotypes may identify chromosomal aberrations that might represent markers for metastatic spread. In the present study spectral karyotyping (SKY) was applied to these two colon cancer cell lines. Compared to previously reported G-banded karyotypes, 9 (SW480) and 7 (SW620) markers were identical, 3 (SW480) and 3 (SW620) markers could be redefined, 5 (SW480) and 8 (SW620) markers were newly identified, and 4 (SW480) and 5 (SW620) of the previous described markers could not be confirmed. The redefined aberrations include very complex rearrangements, such as a der(16) t(3;16;1;16;8;16; 1;16;10) and a der(18)t(18;15;17)(q12; p11p13;??) in SW620 and a der(19)t(19;8;19;5) in SW480, that have not been identified by conventional banding techniques. The resulting chromosome gains (5q11-->5q15, 7pter-->q22, 11, 13q14-->qter, 20pter-->p12, X) and losses (8pter-->p2, 18q12-->qter, Y) found in both SW480 and SW620 were in good agreement with those frequently described in colorectal tumors as primary changes in the stem cell. Abnormalities found exclusively in SW620 cells only (gains of 5pter-->5q11, 12q12-->q23, 15p13-->p11, and 16q21-->q24 and losses of 2pter-->2p24, 4q28-->qter, and 6q25-->qter) can be viewed as changes that occurred in a putative metastatic founder cell. 相似文献

Localization of cathepsin B in two human lung cancer cell lines 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We demonstrated the cysteine proteinase cathepsin B in two human lung tumor cell lines by cytochemical and immunocytochemical methods. The cell lines were derived from a squamous cell carcinoma of the lung (HS-24) and a metastasis to the adrenal gland from an adenocarcinoma of the lung (SB-3). For comparison and control, normal human lung fibroblasts cells (Wi-38) were also investigated. Intracellular cathepsin B activity was detected in all three cell lines. SB-3 and the normal fibroblast cells showed almost equal cathepsin B activity, which was considerably stronger than that in the HS-24 cells. Specific inhibitors for cathepsin B (E64, leupeptin, antipain) suppressed its activity completely. Stefin A, the physiological cathepsin B inhibitor, was less effective; this might depend on its limited penetrability into living cells. Localization of the cathepsin B was performed by conventional immunofluorescence microscopy and laser scanning microscopy. With specific anti-cathepsin B antibodies, the enzyme was localized in HS-24, SB-3, and Wi-38 fibroblast cells within perinuclear granules representing the lysosomal compartment. In the SB-3 cells, we additionally localized a minor fraction of the enzyme bound to the plasma membrane in a speckled distribution, accessible to the antibodies from the outside. This direct demonstration of cathepsin B distribution supports biochemical data about the dual localization of the enzyme in tumor cells. It also supports the possibility of a direct involvement of cathepsin B in the degradation of the extracellular matrix, and thus a contribution of the enzyme in invasion and metastasis. 相似文献

The DiFi and HT-29 human colorectal cancer cell lines were characterized and compared with respect to binding properties of alpha adrenoceptors present on the cell surface. Both cell lines possessed alpha-1 and alpha-2 adrenoceptors of high affinity; however, DiFi cells were rich in alpha-1 adrenoceptors, whereas HT-29 cells were rich in alpha-2 adrenoceptors. In each cell line, specificity of radioligand binding to alpha-1 or alpha-2 adrenoceptors was proved via competition studies using non-tritiated drugs. We believe this to be the first characterization of alpha-1 adrenoceptors in cell line HT-29 and of alpha-1 and alpha-2 adrenoceptors in DiFi cells. Differences between these cell lines in alpha adrenoceptor expression are discussed in relation to colon carcinogenesis. The high level of alpha-1 adrenoceptors seen in DiFi cells should make this cell line useful in studies of the function and regulation of this adrenoceptor subtype. 相似文献

Expression of REG protein during cell growth and differentiation of two human colon carcinoma cell lines. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

We localized REG protein in Paneth cells and nonmature columnar cells of the human small intestinal crypts and speculated that this protein was associated with growth and/or differentiation. The aim of this study was to determine whether REG protein is present in two human colon cancer cell lines that exhibit enterocytic differentiation after confluence and to investigate changes in the level of its expression during growth and differentiation. Results were compared to those obtained on cells that remain undifferentiated. Western immunoblotting and immunofluorescence demonstrated the presence of REG protein in the three cell lines. With the antisera against human REG protein, the staining was diffusely spread throughout the cytoplasm at Day 2, and after Days 3-4 it appeared to have migrated to cell boundaries. After confluence, we observed only a punctate staining array along cell boundaries, which disappeared at Day 15. REG mRNA expression was demonstrated by RTPCR and REG mRNA hybridization until Day 13, but not after, in the three cell types. REG protein may be involved in cellular junctions. Its presence appears to be associated with the cell growth period and the protein must be downregulated when growth is achieved and differentiation is induced. 相似文献

In this present study, the efficacy of metabolomics as a tool for tumor cell energetics for in vitro cell cultures was demonstrated
with full competence for the first time by elucidating the anabolic and energy-yielding segments of glycolysis and glutaminolysis,
which constitute a part of energy metabolism in tumor cells. By synchronizing colon cancer cells SW480 and SW620 in culture,
the metabolome specific to cell cycle phases was analyzed using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. At the G1/S transition of the cell cycle (i.e. transition from cell growth to duplication of genetic material), the majority of the
energy production was realized by glycolysis through a high channeling of glucose carbons towards lactate. During the late
S phase, the majority of energy was produced by glutaminolysis through a high channeling of glutamine carbons towards lactate,
while the glucose carbons were channeled towards bio-synthetic pathways. These results indicate that the metabolism of proliferating
cells is heterogeneous throughout the cell cycle and can be better interpreted on the basis of different cell cycle phases.
These findings could be exploited for the development of a tool for tumor diagnosis as well as for targeting tumors. 相似文献

Summary Cell lines are valuable resources for the study of the malignancy and potential therapy of human breast cancer. A major problem
with adapting fresh breast tumor specimens to grow in vitro is contamination by fibroblasts. Previously, we have reported
a technique to overcome this problem (Nayak, S. K; Dillman, R. O. Clin. Biotechnol. 3:237–242; 1991). We have recently established
two new breast cancer cell lines, HH315 and HH375, that were derived from abdominal and supraclavicular lymph node metastases
from two patients. They were characterized by (1) growth kinetics; (2) staining with monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) to cytokeratin-19,
epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), anticarcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), breast cancer antigen 1 (BRST-1), breast cancer antigen
2 (BRST-2), Her2/neu, and p53; (3) expression of domains of urinary plasminogen activator (uPA), neural cell adhesion molecule
(NCAM), and haptoglobin (Hp) (Harvey et al., 1997); and (4) karyotypic analysis. Growth kinetic studies showed that doubling
times for both lines ranged from 48 to 96 h. These two cell lines were found to have characteristics of the metastatic breast
cancer cells. Both lines stained positive with MoAbs to cytokeratin-19 and EMA, thus confirming their epithelial origin. They
also strongly reacted with the pan-breast carcinoma MoAbs BRST-1 and BRST-2, and carcinoembryonic CEA MoAb. Both cell lines
overexpressed the oncogene proteins Her2/neu and p53. The tumor cells were negative for estrogen and progesterone receptors.
HH315 cells were poorly differentiated, whereas the HH375 cells exhibited adenocarcinoma morphology. Both cell lines showed
intense cell surface and some cytoplasmic staining for uPA, NCAM, and Hp domains, which is a characteristic of malignant neoplasms
(Harvey et al., 1997). The HH375 cell line showed two cell types, of which 60% were hyperdiploids with 60–70 chromosomes and
5–10 marker chromosomes. The remaining cells were polyploid with more than 200 chromosomes. Cell line HH315 consisted of only
a polyploid population. These cell lines may be useful in breast cancer research. 相似文献
