title: [Effects of exogenous nucleotides on the proliferation and migration of intestinal epithelial cells].
abstract: The effect of exogenous nucleotides on proliferation and migration of a normal rat small intestinal epithelial cell line IEC-6 is studied. The concentration-effects as well as interaction of exogenous nucleotides on proliferation of IEC-6 are measured by MTT. Migration of IEC-6 after wounded is determined by an in vitro model of intestinal epithelial restitution of IEC-6 monolayer. Expression of TGF beta is detected by immunohistochemistry. The results show AMP and GMP remarkably inhibit proliferation of IEC-6 in concentration-dependent manner respectively at 30 mumol/L or 150 mumol/L and more. CMP, UMP and nucleotides mixture can not enhance or inhibit the growth with the exception of inhibition of CMP on proliferation at very high concentration (1440 mumol/L). In contrast, CMP, especially UMP, can remarkably abolish the proliferation-inhibiting effects of AMP or GMP on the cell, when AMP or GMP is supplemented. Nucleotides mixture significantly facilitate migration of IEC-6 after wounded but fail to promote the expression of TGF beta. It is concluded that purine nucleotides inhibits proliferation of IEC-6. Pyrimidine nucleotides can abolish the inhibitive effects of purine nucleotides, and Nucleotides mixture promotes migration of IEC-6 after wounded by a TGF beta-independented way.
