Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To study the inhibition effect of LY255283,a BLT2 receptor antagonist,on different human cancer cell lines. METHODS:The expressions of BLT2 receptor in SMMC7721、A549、Bel7402、BGC823、Eca109、HeLa、HL60、MCF7 and Pc3 cell were evaluated by RT-PCR. The inhibition effect of LY255283 on the nine tumor cell lines was analyzed by MTT assay. Apoptotic cells were evaluated by flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy. RESULTS:All nine tumor cell lines expressed BLT2 receptors. LY255283 inhibited the proliferation of all nine tumor cell lines,the IC50 values were 0.21,11.17,1.28,5.9,7.9,1.59,0.14,1.25 and 31.28 μmol/L, respectively. The apoptotic rates of MCF-7 cells induced by LY255283 at 1 and 10 μmol/L were 20.47% and 31.28%,respectively,which were significantly increased compared with blank control group (8.66%) and DMSO control group (11.71%) (P<0.01). CONCLUSION:BLT2 receptor was expressed in nine human tumor cell lines,and the specific antagonist LY255283 could inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells probably by inducing apoptosis.
