Abstract

AIM: To detect the effect of sodium butyrate on the expression of cathepsins D(Cath-D) in HT-29 colon carcinoma cell. METHODS: MTT assay, light microscopy and immunocytochemistry were used to observe the growth, apoptosis and expression of Cath-D in HT-29 cell line after treated by sodium butyrate RESULTS: Sodium butyrate inhibited the growth of HT-29 cell lines, induced apoptosis and increased the expression of Cath-D in HT-29 cell line. CONCLUSION: Sodium butyrate can affect the expressoon of Cath-D and may play an important role in apoptosis of HT-29 cell line. Li X, Luo HS, Li F.
