The inhibitive rates of TRAIL to MG-63 cells were detected by MTT assay. The apoptosis induced by TRAIL in MG-63 human osteosarcoma cells was analyzed with FACS and TUNEL and the apoptotic bodies were observed by transmission electron microscope. MTT assay showed that the inhibitive rates of 500, 1 000, 2 000 and 4 000 ng/mL TRAIL for 24 h were 10.1%, 24.3%, 50.6% and 97.7% respectively. Flow cytometric analysis showed that after MG-63 cells were treated with 2 gg/mL TRAIL for 6 h, obvious apoptotic peak would immediately appear before diploid peak. Human soluble TRAIL protein can quickly kill MG-63 osteosarcoma cells selectively, and may have potential value for clinical treatment of osteosarcoma.展开更多
