Abstract:Objective To observe the effect of combined therapy with somatostatin (SST) and gemcitabine (Gem) on the proliferation of human metastatic pancreatic cancer AsPC-1 cells.Methods The AsPC-1 cells were cultured in vitro.① The cells were treated with 0,100,200,400,600,and 800 μ,g/mL SST for 24,48,and72 h,then we calculated the IC50 of SST.② The cells were treated with 0,0.1,1 5,10,20,40,and 60 μmol/L Gem for 48 h,and we calculated the IC50 of Gem.After that,AsPC-1 cells were divided into four groups:an untreated control group (group A),a group treated with SST at IC50 (group B),a group treated with Gem at IC50 (group C),and a group treated with SST + Gem at half of their IC50 (group D).At 48 h after treatment,the inhibition rates were calculated.Results For AsPC-1 cells,IC50 of SST was 600 μg/mL at 48 h,and IC50 of Gem was 20 μmol/L.The inhibition rates in the groups A,B,C and D were 0.00% ± 3.79%,52.59% ± 4.57%,48.11% ± 10.93%,and 64.86% ± 4.83%,respectively.The cell growth was significantly inhibited in the groups B,C,and D as compared with that of group A (P < 0.05),and the inhibition rate was significantly higher in the group D than in the groups B and C (P < 0.05).Conclusion The combination of SST and Gem can inhibit the growth of AsPC-1 cells.
