Popis: |
The effect of prostaglandin E2(PGE2) on the growth of human colon cancer cell line HT-29 was investigated. PGE2 significantly inhibited the growth of HT-29 cells without increasing cyclicAMP production. Furthermore, the proliferation of HT-29 cell was not suppressed by the administration of vasoactive intestinal peptide or dibutyryl cyclicAMP. The metabolism of PGE2 in the culture medium showed that a considerable amount of PGA2 was produced from PGE2. These observations suggest that PGE2 inhibits the cell growth of HT-29 without stimulation of cAMP production, and that this inhibitory effect was due to the metabolic change of PGE2 to PGA2. |
