Extracellular adenosine triphosphate improves growth and invasion of U87 glioma cells
Objectives To determine the effect of extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on the growth and invasion of U87 glioma cells in vitro. Methods Cell counting kit-8 was used to detect the proliferation in U87 cells after the treatment of ATP at different concentrations of 0
50
100
200
500 and 5 000 μmol/L. Invasion and migration of U87 cells with 100 μmol/L ATP treatment were examined by Transwell and Time microscopy. Results The proliferation of U87 glioma was inhibited obviously by high concentration of ATP (5 000 μmol/L). However
there was no significant impact on the proliferation in U87 cells by a lower amount of extracellular ATP (50
100 and 500 μmol/L). The invasion and migration ability of U87 cells were significantly enhanced by the using of 100 μmol/L ATP. Conclusion Extracellular ATP can significantly enhance the ability of invasion and migration in U87 cells.
