Abstract

In order to explore the underlying mechanism of high effects and low toxicity of trichostatin A (TSA), the effect of TSA on growth inhibition, histone acetylation level and apoptosis in HL-60 cells and normal human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (NPBMNC) were examined using MTT method, immunocytochemistry technology, and Annexin-V-FITC/PI double staining flow cytometry. The results showed that TSA inhibited growth of HL-60 in time- and dose-dependent manners, and the IC(50) of 36 hours was 100 ng/ml. The apoptosis induction effect of TSA in HL-60 cells was also time- and dose-dependent. Besides, the dose of TSA showing significant apoptotic cytotoxicity in HL-60 cells did not demonstrate apparent apoptosis induction in NPBMNC within definite dose and time range. The histone acetylation level in HL-60 cells and NPBMNC both showed remarkable increase (P < 0.05) after incubated with 100 ng/ml TSA for 4 hours without statistical difference between them is detected (P > 0.05). It is concluded that TSA shows effects of definite and significant growth inhibition and apoptosis induction on HL-60 cells in time- and dose-dependent manners. TSA is able to selectively induce apoptosis in HL-60 cells with low toxicity in NPBMNC at the s...Continue Reading

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
