ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effects of arsenic trioxide (As(2)O(3)) on cell cycle and expression of cyclin dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKIs) in multiple myeloma (MM) cells, and explore its pharmacological mechanism.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The DNA content of MM cells line HS-Sultan was analyzed by flow cytometry after exposure to As(2)O(3), the effects on expression of CDKI P15, P16 AND P21 were studied by reverse transcriptase PCR.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>DNA flow cytometric analysis showed that As(2)O(3) induced most of HS-Sultan cells, arrest at G(0)/G(1) phase and a small fraction at G(2)/M phase and apoptosis occurred mainly in S phase. There was no expression of P15 and P16 mRNA in untreated HS-Sultan cells and 1.0 micromol/L As(2)O(3) could make them expressed after exposed 24 or 48 hours respectively. Expression of P12 mRNA was obviously elevated by As(2)O(3) comparing with that of control.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>One of the pharmacological mechanisms of As(2)O(3) is to activate the expression of CDKI P15, P16 and P21, and consequently affect cell proliferation cycle.</p>
