Abstract Objective:To study the effects of artemisine on proliferation and apoptosis of human colon cancer HCT116 and HT29 cells.Method:Human colon cancer cells were treated with artemisine at different concentrations. MTT assay was used to test cell proliferation and FCM was used to detect cell apoptosis.Result:The inhibition rates had upwarded trend with increasing concentrations( HCT116:19.42%,24.59%,44.84%,74.15%,92.87%;HT29:11.77%,17.63%,34.23%,48.51%,70.59%), when treated with artemisine at difierent concentrations( 7.5, 15,30, 60, 120 μg/mL) for 48 hours.Apoptosis rates gradually increased with increasing concentration( HCT116:2.46%,51.36%,64.10%;HT29:1.14%,35.95%,43.45%), when treated with artemisine at different concentrations( 0, 60,120 μg/mL) for 24 hours.Conclusion:Artemisine inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis of human colon cancer cells HCT116 and HT29.
