METHODS: Ml-I- analysis was made to examine the inhibition rate of MKN45 cells treated with AZT (2.5, 5, 10 and 20 mg/L) and FA-2-b-13 (5, 10, 20 and 40 mg/L) singly and combinatively for 24, 48 and 72 h. Apoptotic effects were evaluated by morphological methods, DNA agarose gel electrophoresis and flow cytometry, respectively. Telomerase activity was estimated by TRAP- ELISA. The mRNA expression of caspase-3 and Bcl-2 were detected by RT-PCR. RESULTS: AZT and FA-2-b-13 could significantly inhibit MKN45 cell proliferation and induce its apoptosis. MKN45 cells were inhibited in dose- and time- dependent manner. The inhibition effect of AZT combined with FA-2- b-β was obviously better than that used singly (0.469 + 0.022 vs 1.075 4- 0.055, P 〈 0.05, 0.325 4- 0.029 vs 0.469 + 0.022 P 〈 0.01). AZT used singly and combination of FA-2-b-β could decrease the activity of tumor cell telomerase, and AZT has synergistic function with FA- 2-b-β. A certain concentration of AZT could up-regulate the expression of caspase-3 mRNA (r = 0.9969, P 〈 0.01), which was positively related to apoptosis rate, and could down-regulate the expression of Bcl-2 mRNA, which was negatively related to apoptosis rate (r = 0.926, P 〈 0.01). Furthermore, the effect of AZT combined with FA-2-b-13 was significantly higher than that used singly. CONCLUSION: Combination of AZT and FA-2-b-β has an obviously synergetic effect in the gastric cancer cells MKN45, which has provided a new approach to the treatment of gastric cancer clinically.展开更多
