The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of cytotoxic dose of estradiol on BAX, Bcl2 and CD82/KAI1 genes expression in adenocarcinoma colorectal cells (HT29). Methods: In this laboratory-experimental study, HT29 cells were divided into the control group and a group exposed to cytotoxic dose of estradiol (0.1 mg/mlfor HT29). Real-time PCR was used to evaluate BAX, Bcl2 and CD82/KAI1 genes expression levels. The data were statistically analyzed between groups using ANOVA. Results: In HT29 cells exposed to cytotoxic dose of estradiol, BCL2 and BAX genes expression levels significantly increased and decreased, respectively (p<0.001). CD82/KAI1 gene expression level significantly increased (p<0.01). Conclusion: The estradiol cytotxic mechanism of action in adenocarcinoma colorectal cells is BAX- independent cell death. The cytotoxic dose of estradiol also enhances metastasis inhibition in adenocarcinoma colorectal cells. %> http://rjms.iums.ac.ir/article-1-5391-en.pdf %P 141-148 %& 141 %!
