Objective To investigate the effects of Nordy on the proliferation
cell cycle, and the mRNA and protein expressions of Aurora-A in human ovarian cancer cell lines 3AO and SKOV3. Methods After being treated with Nordy at the doses of 25
50 or 100 μmol/L
the proliferation of 3AO and SKOV3 cells were tested with MTT assay; The expression of Aurora-A was detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting; The effect on cell cycle were analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM). Results Treated with Nordy
the mRNA and protein level of Aurora-A gene were significantly reduced (P0.01). Nordy inhibited the proliferation of 3AO and SKOV3 cells sig
nificantly
and arrested the cell cycle at G

phase (P0.05). Conclusion Nordy signi-ficantly inhibits the proliferation and blocks cell cycle of 3AO and SKOV3 cells. One of the underlying mechanisms may be through decreasing the expression of Aurora-A at mRNA and protein levels and preventing abnormal division of centrosome.
