Abstract: MTT assay, morphological examination and colonial assay were applied to evaluate the antiproliferative effect of a new xanthono-pyridine derivative (XP-16) on human nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE cells; Hoechest 33258/PI double staining, flow cytometry, spectrofluorimetry and RT-PCR were also employed to investigate its possible action mechanism. The experiment results showed that XP-16 could inhibit the proliferation of CNE cells in dose- and time-dependent manner. Typical apoptotic morphology such as chromatin aggregation and nuclear fragmentation was observed in XP-16 treated CNE cells for 24 h in a dose-dependent manner. After treated with XP-16, CNE cells were blocked in G2-M and S phases, mitochondria membrane potential of the cells was decreased, relative Bad and MT-1A mRNA level was up-regulated. The apoptosis of CNE cells inducing by XP-16 might be associated with decreasing mitochondria membrane potential and up-regulating MT-1A.

Key words: xanthone, antitumor, human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE, apoptosis
