Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives : This study purposed to research the anti-cancer effects of Andrographitis Herba.
Methods : By measuring the cell proliferation, apoptosis, morphology and cytokine level from the extracts, the influence on a A549 cell was compared.
Results : The Andrographitis Herba decoction extract according to the concentration inhibited the proliferation and increased the apoptosis of the A549 cell. Among the various fraction extracts of the Andrographitis Herba decoction, EtOEt showed the greatest increase of the apoptosis of the A549 cell. The Andrographitis Herba decoction extract according to the concentration decreased the secretion of the TGF-β in the A549 cell, and increased the secretion of the TNF-α and the
IFN-γ presenting cell population.
Conclusion : It is considered that the total extract and various fraction extracts of Andrographitis Herba decoction inhibit the proliferation of A549 cells.
