Abstract

Objective To investigate the growth inhibitory effect and inducing apoptosis effect of oridonin on MCF-7 cells.Methods Different concentrations of oridonin were added in culture medium.The growth inhibitory rate of the MCF-7 cells was measured by MTT assay,cell apoptotic rate was detected by flow cytometry(FCM),morphology of apoptosis was observed by Hoechst 33258 fluorescence staining.Results Oridonin could inhibit the growth of MCF-7 cells and induce cell apoptosis significantly.The suppression was both in a time-and dose-dependent manner.Marked changes of apoptosis including condensation of chromatin and nuclear fragmentation were observed very clearly by Hoechst 33258 fluorescence staining.Conclusion Oridonin had growth inhibitory effect on MCF-7 cells in vitro,which associated with the cell apoptosis.
