Objective To investigate the apoptosis in gastric cancer induced by trichosanthin (TCS) and the relationship between this apoptosis and expression of c-myc. Methods In in vitro experiment, morphologic test and TUNEL staining method were used to detect quantitatively and qualitatively the apoptosis status of gastric adenocarcinoma cell line SGC-7901 before and after the treatment of 0.1μg/ml TCS. Immunohistochemical staining method and Northern Blot hybridization were used to detect the expression status of apoptosis-related genes c-myc before and after TCS treatment. Results Some typical apoptotic morphologic changes appeared after 36h treated by TCS. The apoptotic indexes increased significantly in the TCS treated group than those of the untreated group after 36h,42h and 48h (P<0.01). After 24h treated by TCS, an increased expression of c-myc protein product occurred, the staining density was increased from + or ++ to +++ (P< 0.01), and the expression of c-myc RNA increased significantly (P<0.05). Conclusion TCS is able to induce the apoptosis in gastric cancer. This apoptosis may be mediated by up-expression of apoptosis-regulated gene c-myc.
