| Abstract | Cytochalasin B (CB) is known to inhibit a number of cancer types, but its effects on gliomas are unknown. We examined the in vitro effects of CB on the proliferation of human glioma U251 cells, as well as determined its mechanism of action. Cell proliferation was determined using CCK-8. The effect of CB on U251 cell morphology was observed under a transmission electron microscope. Cell cycle distribution was assessed using propidium iodine and Giemsa staining, and cell apoptosis was determined by annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate/propidium iodide. Cell cycle-related proteins were determined by Western blot. CB effectively inhibited U251 cell proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The 24, 48, 72, and 96 h IC50 values were 6.41 x 10(-2), 9.76 x 10(-4), 2.57 x 10(-5), and 2.08 x 10(-5) M, respectively. CB increased the proportion of cells in the G2/M phase in a dose-dependent manner, thus increasing the mitotic index and decreasing cdc2 and cyclin B1 protein levels. CB induced morphological changes in the cytoskeleton. Additionally, 10(-5) M CB induced apoptosis in 23.4 ± 0.5% of U251 cells (P < 0.05 vs control group). Caspase-3, -8, and -9 activities were increased after CB treatment. CB inhibited U251 glioma cell proliferation by damaging the microfilament structure. CB also induced glioma cell apoptosis, suggesting that it may be an effective therapeutic agent against gliomas. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
