In this study, we examined the effect of acacetin on the apoptosis induction of HeLa human cervical cancer cells. The results showed that acacetin inhibited the cell viability and induced apoptosis, leading to PARP cleavage and activation of caspase-9, -3, and -7. Moreover, acacetin-induced apoptosis was attenuated by a broad caspase inhibitor, z-VAD-fmk. Also, acacetin resulted in a loss of mitochondria membrane potential. Taken together, our results demonstrate that the induction of apoptosis by acacetin in HeLa cells is associated with caspase activation via the mitochondria pathway.

임상적으로 많이 이용되는 범위의 방사선 조사에서는 증식능의 상실을 세포사망으로 정의를 내린다. 본 연구는 실험용 orthovoltage조사기를 이용하여 확립된 세포주인 Hela.53(5C)를 대상으로 각각 100 cGy, 200 cGy, 400 cGy 및 600 cGy 방사선조사 후 2주일간 배양후 crystal violet 염색을 하여 육안적으로 판별가능한 크기의 집락의 수를 산출하여 다음의 결과를 얻었다. HeLa.S3(SC) 세포의 집락 형성능은 0.464이었다. 세포의 생존곡선의 형태는 다표적, 1 hit 형태를 보였다. Do는 150 cGy, Dq는 80 cGy, 외삽치는 1.7이었다. 이 연구결과는 향후 다양한 방사선 생물학 연구에 참고자료로 이용 가능하리라 사료된다.

본 연구는 다양한 항암성분을 함유한 Celeriac Extract의 암세포 증식에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 실시되었다. 실험에 사용한 암 세포주는 5종으로 폐암세포 A549, 전립샘암세포 DU-145, 자궁암세포 HeLa, 유방암세포 MCF-7, 간암세포 SNU-182 로 모두 인체 유래 암 세포주를 사용하였으며 Celeriac Extract 10ug/mL, 100ug/mL, 1000ug/mL 에 대한 암세포의 증식 억제는 CCK-8 방법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 암세포 증식 억제를 살펴본 결과 Celeriac Extract 1000ug/mL는 폐암세포 A549, 전립샘암세포 DU-145, 자궁암세포 HeLa, 간암세포 SNU-182에서 유의한 증식 억제를 보였으며 농도 의존성을 나타냈다. 그러나 유방암세포 MCF-7 에서는 농도 의존적인 감소만 보였다. 결론적으로, 다양한 인간유래 암 세포주를 이용한 Celeriac Extract의 세포 증식 억제기전들은 암 예방효과 및 치료제 개발의 잠재력을 제공한다고 볼 수 있다.

The ORI2 (3-[3,4-dihydroxyphenyl]acrylic acid 1-[3,4-dihydroxyphenyl]-2-methoxycarbonylethyl ester) was purified from the extract of Isodon excisus. We confirmed the antiviral effect of ORI2 in a coxsackievirus-induced pancreatitis model. Coxsackievirus B4 (CVB4) is a common cause of pancreatitis and may be reason of the type-1 diabetes. Anti-enteroviral compounds were screened by HeLa cell survival assay. Purified natural compounds were added to HeLa cells cultured 96-well plates after $10^4PFU/ml$ CVB4 pre-incubation for 30 min. ORI2 significantly improved HeLa cell survival in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, ORI2 (1 mM) treatment was dramatically decreased virus protease 2A induced eIF4G-I cleavage and viral VP1 capsid protein production. HeLa cell virus titers and viral RNA replication were significantly decreased in ORI2-treatment in a dose dependent manner (1 mM~0.001 mM). These results demonstrate that ORI2 has a strong antiviral effect. It was significantly decreased virus replication. ORI2 may be developed as a potential therapeutic agent for CVB4.

In vitro cytotoxicity of 23 alkyl phenols (APs) on human cervical cancer cell lines (HeLa) was determined using the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) cytotoxicity assay. Two different sets of descriptors were used to construct the calibration model based on Genetic Algorithm-Multiple Linear Regression (GA-MLR) based on the experimental data. A statistically robust Structure-Activity Relationships (QSAR) model was achieved ($R^2$=95.05%, $Q^2_{LOO}$=91.23%, F=72.02 and SE= 0.046) using three Dragon descriptors based on Me (0D-Constitutional descriptor), BELp8 (2D-Burden eigenvalue descriptor) and HATS8p (3D-GETAWAY descriptor). However, external validation could not fully prove its validity of the selected QSAR in characterization of the cytotoxicity of APs towards HeLa cells. Nevertheless, the cytotoxicity profiles showed a finding that 4-n-octylphenol (4-NOP), 4-tert-octyl-phenol (4-TOP), 4-n-nonylphenol (4-NNP) had a more potent cytotoxic effect than other APs tested, inferring that increased length and molecular bulkiness of the substituent had important influence on the LDH cytotoxicity.

Objectives: We are aimed to identify anti-tumor effects of Curcuma aromatics on some kinds of cancer cells through molecular biologic methods. Materials & Methods: We used 4 kinds of cancer cell lines such as lung cancer cells(AS49), cervical cancer cells(HeLa), glioma cancer cells(A172) and prostate cancer cells(PC3). We treated the boiled extract of Curcuma aromatica $5{\mu}g,\;10{\mu}g$ to cultural media(ml) for 24 hours. We measured the cytotoxicitv on 4 kinds of cancer cells through tryphan blue exclusion test and the suppressive effect on viability of 4 kinds of cancer cells via MTT assay. We measured change of mitochondria membrane potential via flow cytometry. The quantitative RT-PCR was used to examine the effect on the revelation of Bcl-2 and Bax which are genes related to apoptosis. We examined the effect on the revelation of Bcl-2 Protein and Bar protein by western blot analysis. Results : In the experiment of tryphan blue exclusion test, the extract of Curcuma aromatica showed more significant killing effect on AS49, HeLa than the control group with density dependent manner, which was statistically significant. In the experiment of MTT assay the extract of Curcuma aromatica showed more suppressive effect on viability of A549, HeLa than the control group with density dependent manner, which was statistically significant. Curcuma aromatica induced apoptosis by decreasing the membrane potential of mitochondria in A549, HeLa. In the experiment of the revelation of genes related to apoptosis, the revelation of Bcl-2 decreased and the revelation of Bax increased in A549, HeLa treated with Curcuma aromatica with dose dependent manner. In the experiment of the revelation of protein related to apoptosis, the protein levels of Bcl-2 decreased and the protein levels of Bax increased in AS49, HeLa treated with Curcuma aromatica with dose dependent manner. Conclusions: From this study, we can infer that Curcuma aromatica has anti-tumor effect on lung cancer cells and uterine carcinoma cells but not on glioma cells and prostate cancer cells.

형광을 이용한 암 진단을 위해 배양된 정상 및 암세포주에 광민감제인 5-ALA를 투여하고 세포 내 외에서 생성된 Protoporphyrin IX(PpIX)의 형광을 측정하여 5-ALA 투여의 최적농도를 조사하였다. 정상 간세포주(Chang) 및 자궁경부암 세포주(HeLa)에 5-ALA를 농도별로 투여하여 ALA에 의해 유도된 PpIX의 생성을 확인하고, MTT assay로 세포생존율을 측정하였다. 배양된 cell에 5-ALA를 투여한 후 24시간 동안 배양함으로써 생성되는 PpIX의 양은 형광의 강도로 측정하였다. HeLa 세포주에 대한 5-ALA의 최적농도는 $50{\mu}g/ml$이며, 이 때의 형광(emission) 스펙트럼은 여기 파장이 410 nm일 때 602.3 nm, 659.9 nm에서 형광 봉우리가 관찰되었다. PpIX의 형광 강도를 측정한 결과, PpIX는 정상세포에서는 낮은 농도로 축적이 되는 반면에 암세포에서 더 높은 농도로 축적되었으며, 세포 외보다는 세포 내에서 더 높은 농도로 축적됨을 알 수 있었다.

Cancer is an unfavorable human disease, and the treatment commonly have side effects and can be ineffective. Since exploration and development of cancer treatment drugs is particularly demanding, this study aimed to investigate the anticancer activities of Polysiponia morrowii extract s (PME) on CT-26 and HeLa cells. The results showed that PME inhibited cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner, with IC50 values of 41.04% in CT-26 and 48.51% in HeLa cell cultures. Moreover, cytological observation using Hoechst 33342 staining assay showed typical apoptotic morphology in both cancer cells, and production of sub-G1 DNA was induced by PME treatment in a dose-dependent manner, with 34.41% in CT-26 and 46.01% in HeLa cell cultures. These findings suggest that PME may have potential preventive effects or medicinal value in the treatment of colorectal and cervical cancers.

Japanese encephalitis has been prevalent for long time in the Far East and many patients have been reported in both South East and Mid-West Asia recently. Recently, vaccine was used in prevention of this viral disease of man which was derived from formalin inactivated virus inoculated into mouse brain, but live attenuated active vaccine for human is not developed yet. Author inoculated Japanese encephalitis virus into several cell culture strains for development of live attenuated encephalitis virus strain and the results were as follows: 1. Japanese encephalitis virus was inactivated rapidly in cell free medium at $36^{\circ}C$ and totally inactivated by 72 hours. 2. In growth curve of Japanese encephalitis virus in HeLa cell cultures, maximal multiplication of the virus was occured at 4th day and virus multiplication was continued for at least 12 days. 3. After succeeding passage of the virus in HeLa cell cultures and human esophagus epithelial cell cultures, infectivity of virus for mice was disappeared from 2nd passage in HeLa cell cultures and 3rd passage in esophagus epithelial cell cultures. 4. In inoculation to monkey kidney epithelial cells and chick embryo cell cultures, infectivity of the virus for mice was continued after 10th passages.
