Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare the anticancer effects of Smilacis Chinae Rhizoma (SCR) and Smilacis Glabrae Rhizoma (SGR) on stomach cancer SNU-1 cells.
Methods: The cell proliferation, apoptosis and cytokine level from the extracts were examined in order to compare the anticancer effects of SCR and SGR on SNU-1 cells.
Results: SCR had greater anticancer effects than SGR in terms of the inhibition of cell proliferation and apoptosis in the SNU-1 cells. SCR decreased TGF-¥â and SGR increased IL-2 in SNU-1 cells. SCR decreased more TGF-¥â and increased more TNF-¥á compared to SGR.
Conclusions: There were few significant differences according to the concentration and fraction, but a greater anticancer effect of SCR was shown as compared with SGR.
