Results:EGCG at concentrations(10 and 20 mg/L)both could significantly inhibit the proliferation and induce the apoptosis of BIU-87 cells.The IR and AR were(15.67±1.15)%,(18.33±1.53)%and(42.00±4.34)%,(27.33±3.21)%,respectively. And compared with the control groups of 0 mg/L and 5 mg/L(P﹤0.05),EGCG could significantly up-regulate the expression of Cx43 mRNA and its protein and enhance the function of BIU-87 cells.The effects had the significant correlation with the dose-dependent of EGCG.Conclusion:EGCG(10,20 mg/L)could effectively up-regulate Cx43 expression and enhance the GJIC of BIU-87 cells.The results may indicate the effects of EGCG inducing bladder tumor cells apoptosis and inhibiting its growth which provides the experimental evidence for further demonstrating the mechanism of chemical prevention and cure for the bladder tumor by EGCG. | Zhengguo Cao Chao Tian Maolin Jiang Kui Wu Xiaojian Zhong Jianxin Li Yuefu Han | 2011 | The Chinese-German Journal of Clinical Oncology2011，10，12： | 0 |
