摘要

To investigate the effects of Salvia miltiorrhiza and Ligustrazine Injection (SML) on proliferation and apoptosis of human hepatic stellate cell LX-2 and the expression of N-myc downstreamregulated gene 2 (NDRG2

a tumor suppressor gene). HSCs from the LX-2 cell line were cultured in vitro. The proliferative state of different initial LX-2 cell numbers was measured using a 3-(4

5-dimethylthiazol- 2-yl)-2

5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) colorimetric assay. LX-2 cells were plated in 96-well plates at an approximate density of 2.50×104 cells/mL and cultured for 24 h followed by the application of different concentrations of SML (1

4 and 8 μL/mL). Cell proliferation was measured using the MTT assay at 24 and 48 h. Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry at 24 h. LX-2 cells were treated with different concentrations of SML and extracted with protein lysis buffer. The levels of NDRG2 and β-catenin were measured by Western blot. With the exception of the 1 and 2 μL/mL concentrations

4 and 8 μL/mL SML inhibited cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner at 24 and 48 h (P<0.05). With the exception of the 1 and 2 μL/mL concentrations

the NDRG2 expression level was greatly increased in a concentration-dependent manner. However

the level of β-catenin was unaffected. SML inhibit LX-2 cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner

and the mechanism may be associated with NDRG2 over-expression.
