ABSTRACT
Estrogen substances in the environment are increasing dramatically, which interfere with the normal hormone level of human body, lead to the disorder of endocrine system and even cancer. It is difficult to screen a large number of environmental estrogen substances by existing estrogen effect detection methods, and the results are often affected by many factors, thus the development of new method has become an urgent task. Electrochemical method is promising to reflect cell proliferation by tracking intracellular purine bases directly. In this study, the estrogen level in MCF-7 cells on multiwall carbon nanotubes modified glassy carbon electrode (MWCNTs/GCE) could be tracked simply and conveniently, and the estrogen effect of estradiol could be reflected by electrochemistry in time and dose-dependent manners. Electrochemical method displayed the best tolerance to culture factors, such as different cell densities, serum types, culture medium types and serum estrogen-free methods, which responsed to estrogen effect higher than MTT (about 40%) and cell counting methods (about 50%). Further Western blotting analysis showed that the estrogen effect of estradiol promoted purine catabolism and up-regulated guanine deaminase (GDA) and adenine deaminase (ADA) expression, the key enzymes of purine catabolism pathway, in a dose-dependent manner. The up-regulation of GDA and ADA led to the increase of intracellular guanine and xanthine, which enhanced the electrochemical signal derived from guanine and xanthine.
