ABSTRACT
Taking human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC)as experimental model which can simulate tumor-derived vascular endothelial cells;the effects of CPU-XT-008;an amino sugar derivative of combretastatin A-4 (CA-4);on HUVEC proliferation;cell cycle distribution;tubulin polymerization and the key regulatory pro-tein of cell cycle were studied.The effect of CPU-XT-008 on the proliferation of HUVEC was determined by MTT assay.The cell cycle distribution caused by CPU-XT-008 was detected by flow cytometry.Immunofluorescence was used to detect apoptosis and tubulin polymerization.The expressions of Cyclin B1;Cdc2 and β-tubulin were detected by Western blotting.Results demonstrated that CPU-XT-008 could target tubulin and inhibit the poly-merization ofβ-tubulin;and it could lead to G2/M cell cycle arrest in HUVEC by up-regulating Cyclin B1 expres-sion and down-regulating Cdc2 and p-Cdc2 expression;which resulted in inhibiting the proliferation of HUVEC and inducing its apoptosis.
