Abstract: | AIM: To investigate the differentiation-inducing effect of cell differentiation agent-2 (CDA-2) in human SWO-38 glioma cell line in vitro.METHODS: The inhibitory effect of CDA-2 on cell proliferation was assessed by MTT assay and colony formation assay.Cell morphology was determinded by light microscopy observation,and the expression of GFAP (glial fibrillary acidic protein) was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting.Western blotting was also applied to explore the expression of PPARγ and COX-2.RESULTS: The data showed that CDA-2 inhibited proliferation and induced differentiation of SWO-38 cells.The inhibition efficiency was time-dependent and dose-dependent .The IC50 of CDA-2 was (2.33±0.37) g/L and (0.51±0.01) g/L,respectively when cells were treated for 72 h and 10 days.CDA-2 caused differentiation of human glioma cells as indicated by outgrowth of long processes and expression of astrocyte marker GFAP.Simultaneously,the expression of PPARγ increased after 3 h of CDA-2 treatment,while the expression of COX-2 decreased after 48 h of CDA-2 treatment.CONCLUSION: CDA-2 inhibits proliferation and induces differentiation of SWO-38 cells.These effects may be through increasing cellular GFAP,PPARγ level and decreasing COX-2 expression induced by CDA-2. |
