【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the apoptotic effect of capsaicin on human colon cancer cell line SW480. Methods SW480 cells were treated with capsaicin at various concentrations for different durations. Cell growth was determined by CCK-8 method.Flow cytometry was applied to measure the early apoptotic rate, so was RT-PCR and Western blot to detect the protein expressions of HSP27,caspase-3,and caspase-9 genes. Results Capsaicin suppressed the growth of SW480 cells markedly and induced apoptosis in a time and dose-dependent manner. RT-PCR and Western blot assay showed that capsaicin downregulated the expressions of HSP27 and upregulated the expressions of caspase-3 and caspase-9. Conclusion Capsaicin inhibits the proliferation of SW480 cells. Apoptotic induction may be the main antineoplastic mechanism, which is mediated by altering apoptosis-related genes through downregulation of Hsp27 and upregulation of caspase-3 and caspase-9 proteins.更多还原
