Abstract

Objective To investigate the effect of TRAIL induced apoptosis in Human colon cancer SW480 cell line.Methods The experiment was divided into two groups: treated group with rmhTRAIL and negative control group.SW480 cells proliferation was measured by MTT assay.The apoptosis rate was analyzed by flow cytometry(FCM).The expression of Bcl-2,Bax was detected by western blot. Results MTT showed that rmhTRAIL significantly inhibited SW480 cells proliferation with a dose-dependent manner(P0.05).When SW480 cells treated by rmhTRAIL,the FCM revealed that rmhTRAIL could markedly upgrade the apoptosis rate(P0.01),and the expression of Bcl-2 downregulated markedly(P0.05),while the expression of Bax upregulated significantly(P0.05).Conclusions rmhTRAIL could induce apoptosis in human colon cancer SW480 cell line,and the mechanism was related to downregulation expression of Bcl-2,upregulation expression of Bax.
