We investigated the in vitro effect of Acteoside , phenylpropanoid glycosides. is a natural product isolated from …. on proliferation, differentiation and cell cycle regulation in human promyelocytic HL -60 leukemia cells. Acteoside significantly inhibited the proliferation of HL -60 cells, with IC50 of about 30$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$. It was also found to be a potent inducer of differentiation in human leukemia derived HL-60 cells through the examination of differentiation markers. (omitted)

The anticancer effects of leek (buchu in Korean) kimchi were evaluated in the human cancer cells: AGS gastric adenocarcinoma cells, HT-29 human colon adenocarcinoma cells and HL-60 leukemia cells. The leek kimchi (fermented for 6 days at 15$^{\circ}C$) was fractionated into 7 groups: methanol extract, hexane extract, methanol soluble extract MSE), dichloromethane (DCM) fraction (fr.), ethyl acetate fr., butanol fr. and aqueous fr. Most of the leek kimchi tractions inhibited the growth of AGS and HT-29 cancer cells in a dose dependent manner. In particular, the DCM fr. showed the highest inhibitory effect among the tractions. Treatment with the DCM fr. (0.1 mg/mL) reduced the survival rates of AGS and HT-29 cancer cells to 19% and 37% of the controls, respectively. Moreover the DCM fr. of the leek kimchi arrested G2/M phase in the cell cycle and induced apoptosis in HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells. These results indicate that the leek kimchi exerted an anticancer effect on those human cancer cells, and that the DCM fr. arrested G2/M phase in the cell cycle and induced apoptosis in the leukemia cells.

우리나라 중요한 식품 원료인 전통 매주로부터 분리한 단독균의 접종 메주의 암세포 저해효과를 검색하기 위하여, 민간유래의 혈액암 세포주에 대한 저해활성을 MTT assay로 분석하였다. 먼저 전통 메주로부터 21종의 단독균을 분리한 후 각각 접종하여 발효된 단독균의 메주시료를 조제한 다음 80% methanol로 추출하였다. 메주 메탄올추출물은 혈액암세포중 HL60에서는 다소 낮은 성장 저해효과를 보였으나, U937과 Jurkat cell에서는 저해효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 특히 Mucor속과 Absidia속 Aspergillus속으로 제조된 메주들에서 이들 혈액암세포에 대해 저해효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 모든 메주 메탄올추출물들은 인간의 정상 lymphocyte에서 대해서는 90% 이상의 높은 생존율을 나타내어 정상 세포에 대한 성장 저해 효과가 거의 없음을 보며주었다. 이는 단독균의 메주시료가 가지는 세포독성이 암세포에 대한 특이적인 작용인 것으로 나타났다.

Objectives In human myeloid leukemia cells, there are no specific features of apoptosis compared with apoptosis in other cell types. Solanum nigrum L.(SNL) is a deciduous tree, which is widely distributed in Korea with reported anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory and non-specific immune-enhancing properties. Although the plant has been clinically used for treating a variety of diseases, its bioactive ingredients are unknown and its mode of action potential has never been investigated. Thus anti-tumor property of methanol extract was investigated. Methods In this study, anti-tumor property of methanol extract was investigated by determining its in vitro growth-inhibitory effects on human myeloid leukemia cells. XTT proliferation assay, DNA fragmentation, immunoblot analysis, densitometric analysis were used. Results 1. The methanol fraction of the extracts of SNL induced mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in human myeloid leukemia cells. 2. The methanol fraction exhibited relatively higher cytotoxic activity in a dose-dependent manner than chloroform, and hexane fraction. 3. Typical ladder profile of Oligonucleosomal fragments were appeared. 4. The secreted cytosolic cytochrome C level was increased by treatment of methanol fraction. Conclusions Methanol fraction of SNL is capable of inducing apoptosis in human myeloid leukemia cells.

Costunolide has been reported to be a cytotoxic and chemopreventive agent. This work investigated the mechanism of the anti proliferative effect of costunolide and determined that it induced differentiation of the human leukemia cell line HL-60. Costunolide exhibited a potent antiproliferative activity against HL-60 cells. It was also found to be a potent inducer of differentiation in human leukemia derived HL-60 cells through the examination of differentiation markers, as assessed by the reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium, the increase in esterase activities and phagocytic activity, morphology change and the expression of CD14 and CD66b surface antigens. These results, accompanied by a decline in the expression of c-myc protein, suggest that costunolide induces differentiation of human leukemia cells to granulocytes and monocytes/macrophages lineage.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects of MCS-C2, a novel analogue of toyocamycin and sangivamycin, in human promyelocytic leukemia (HL-60) cells. When treated with MCS-C2, inhibited proliferation associated with cell cycle arrest and apoptotic induction was found in the HL-60 cells in a concentration-dependent and time-dependent manner. This apoptotic induction was associated with the cleavage of Bid and a release of cytochrome c from mitochondria into the cytosol, followed by the activation of caspase-3 and inactivation of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). However, there was no significant change in any other mitochondrial membrane proteins, such as Bcl-2 and Bax. Consequently, the current findings suggest that the mitochondrial pathway was primarily involved in the MCS-C2-induced apoptosis in the human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells.

In previous study, we have shown that continentalic acid (CA) isolated from Aralia continentalis induced the growth inhibition and apoptosis in HepG2 cells. In this study, we examine the effects of CA from A. continentalis on growth inhibition and apoptosis induction in human leukemia HL-60 and mouse fibroblast NIH 3T3 cell lines. The results demonstrated that CA decreased cell growth of leukemia HL-60 cells but not human HaCaT keratinocytes, assessed with the MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide] and LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) assay. Flow cytometric analysis of mouse fibroblast cell lines exposed to CA showed that apoptotic cells increased in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Treatment with CA decreased the number of normal cells and increased the number of early apoptotic and late apoptotic cells in a dose-dependent manner. The induction of apoptosis in mouse cell lines by CA was mediated through the activation of caspase-3, Bak, and Bax and the down-regulation of Bcl-2. Our results suggest that CA efficiently induces apoptosis in human leukemia cells.

급성 전골수구성 백혈병(acute promyelocytic leukemia, APL)은 치료제가 한정적이고 그 또한 다양한 부작용을 초래한다. 최근 암세포 형성 억제에 세균 추출물을 사용하는 경우가 증가하는데 이를 이용하여 기존의 약제보다 효과적이면서 부작용이 적은 치료제 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 L. monocytogenes에서 분비되는 물질(LmSup)과 세균 자체가 함유하고 있는 물질(LmE)을 추출하여 HL-60 세포에 처리한 다음 세포증식 억제 효과를 보고자 하였다. 세포 생존율 및 세포고사를 확인하여 세포를 죽음으로 유도하는 지 파악한 다음 작용기전을 규명하고자 세포주기의 변화 및 ROS 생성을 관찰하였다. 그 결과, LmSup와 LmE가 급성 전골수구성 백혈병(APL) 세포인 HL-60의 세포고사를 유도하고, sub G0/G1기 증가로 세포주기를 비정상적으로 차단함으로써 세포고사를 유도함을 확인하였다. 이때, ROS가 관여함을 관찰하였다. 이를 통해, LmSup 또는 LmE의 구체적인 항암효과 및 기전 분석을 통해 난치병인 APL의 치료 방법 및 치료제 개발에 기여하고자 한다.

Elevated levels of soluble CD30 (sCD30) are linked with various T-cell neoplasms. However, the relationship between sCD30 levels and the development of adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) in human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) carriers remains to be clarified. We here investigated whether plasma sCD30 is associated with risk of ATL in a nested case-control study within a cohort of HTLV-1 carriers. We compared sCD30 levels between 11 cases (i.e., HTLV-1 carriers who later progressed to ATL) and 22 age-, sex- and institution-matched control HTLV-1 carriers (i.e., those with no progression). The sCD30 concentration at baseline was significantly higher in cases than in controls (median 65.8, range 27.2-134.5 U/mL vs. median 22.2, range 8.4-63.1 U/mL, P=0.001). In the univariate logistic regression analysis, a higher sCD30 (${\geq}30.2U/mL$) was significantly associated with ATL development (odds ratio 7.88 and the 95% confidence intervals 1.35-45.8, P = 0.02). Among cases, sCD30 concentration tended to increase at the time of diagnosis of aggressive-type ATL, but the concentration was stable in those developing the smoldering-type. This suggests that sCD30 may serve as a predictive marker for the onset of aggressive-type ATL in HTLV-1 carriers.

In a continuous effort to develop novel anticancer agents we newly synthesized and evaluated the antitumor activity of nucleoside analogues. One analogue, 4 - ［2-Chlor-6- (3-iodo- benzy lamino) -purin -9-yl］- 2,3-dihydroxy-cyclopentanecarbo xylic acid methylamide (LJ-331), has been shown to exert a potent inhibition of human cancer cell growth in vitro including human lung (A549), stomach (SNU-638) and leukemia (HL-60) cancer cells. Following mechanism of action study revealed that LJ - 331induces cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase in HL-60 cells and evokes apoptotic phenomena such as an increase in DNA ladder intensity and chromatin condensation by a dose- and time-dependent manner. LJ-331 also activated the caspase-3 activity in HL-60. This result suggests that the growth inhibition of human cancer cells by LJ-331 might be related to the cell cycle arrest and induction of apoptosis.
