[Morphological changes and inhibiting effect on human gastric cancer cell SGC-7901 caused by aining].

OBJECTIVE

To investigate the inhibiting effect of Aining on the human gastric cancer cells.

METHODS

Morphological and MTT methods were adopted to explore the inhibiting effect of Aining and cisplatin (DDP) on the proliferation of SGC-7901 cancer cell.

RESULTS

Apoptotic morphological changes were seen after the cells cultured with Aining and DDP; inhibiting rate of 1 g/L Aining group was 51%, which had no significant differences with the inhibiting rate 53% of the 25 mg/L DDP group. But both the Aining and the DDP groups were significantly different from the blank group (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSION

Not only DDP but also Aining could inhibit the proliferation activity of the human gastric cancer cells, and the traditional Chinese medicine compound prescription Aining is very likely to become a new medicine which is utilized to inhibit cancer.
