Abstract

The study was purposed to explore the effect and mechanisms of decitabine and/or Trichostatin A (TSA) on SKM-1 cells in vitro. The effect of decitabine and/or TSA on proliferation of SKM-1cells was analyzed with trypan blue exclusion; the differentiation of SKM-1 cells was detected by nitro-blue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction and flow cytometry; the apoptosis of cells was measured by Annexin V-FITC; the mRNA expression of Fas, survivin and P15(INK4B) in cells treated with decitabine and/or TSA was evaluated by RT-PCR. The results showed that decitabine and/or TSA were capable of inhibiting SKM-1 cell growth and promoting cell differentiation; they stimulated the expression of CD14 and CD11b and inhibited HLA-DR expression; meanwhile and decitabine or/and TSA could induce cell apoptosis, up-regulate mRNA expression of Fas and P15(INK4B), and down-regulate survivin mRNA expression. It is concluded that decitabine can induce apoptosis/differentiation of SKM-1 cells, whose mechanisms may related to the expression of Fas, survivin and P15(INK4B). Decitabine has the synergistic effect with TSA.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
