Abstract
To examine the effect of a novel phenolic-based compound, 2-hydroxy benzoate zinc (2HBZ), and acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) on human HT-1080 fibrosarcoma cells. MTT assay was used to assess cell proliferation while different methods were used to detect apoptosis morphologically and immunohistochemically in Human HT-1080 fibrosarcoma cells. Apoptosis was determined by Annexine-V labelling, and caspase-3 activation. In addition, western blot was used to analyse p21, p53 and Bax and flow cytometry was to analyse the cell cycle. 2HBZ exhibited a more than 5-fold increase in cytotoxic potency when compared with ASA with mean LD50 values of 210 and 1100 lM respectively (P < 0.0001). The cytotoxic effects of 2HBZ were both time- and dosedependent with marked apoptosis being evident only after 24 h at concentrations as low as 200 mM. In contrast, ASA-induced apoptosis was observed only at concentrations in excess of 1000 mM at the same time point. Both 2HBZ and ASA induced caspase-3 activation in the cells, which confirmed that their cytotoxic effects were the result of apoptotic cell death. These findings were further confirmed by immunomorphological studies for the detection of apoptosis including haematoxylineosin, methyl green/pyronin...Continue Reading
