OBJECTIVE Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and their receptors play a critical role in the growth and regulation of many type of malignant cells. The purpose of this study was to clarify the expression of Insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) in a human colorectal cancer cell line HT-29 and investigate the effects of 2 IGF-IR monoclonal antibodies (Mab) on the biological behavior of HT-29 cell line. METHODS Immunohistochemistry was used to test the expression of IGF-IR in HT-29 cell line, MTT assay was used to determine the antiproliferation effects of 2 kinds of IGF-IR monoclonal antibody on HT-29 cells. The effects of apoptosis rate and cell cycle of HT-29 cells were estimated by flow cytometry (FCM). RESULTS IGF-IR was expressed in the membranes of HT-29 cell line; MTT results show that each IGF-IR (alpha-Subunit)Ab-3 Mab group has remarkable difference (p < 0.01) as compared with control group, each IGF-IRalpha(1H7)L Mab group has no remarkable difference (p > 0.05) as compared with control group, each IGF-IRalpha(1H7)L Mab group has light antiproliferation effect on the HT-29 cells. IGF-IR(alpha-Subunit)Ab-3 has stronger antiproliferation effect on the HT-29 cells and dose-depended growth inhibition effects were observed when concentration is less than 1.5 ug/ml;The 2 kinds of IGF-IR monoclonal antibody can arrest the cell cycle at any phase of HT-29 cells and induce apoptosis. Under the incubating conditions of containing 5 percent fetal bovine serum (FCS) and no FCS, the apoptosis percentage of IGF-IR(alpha-Subunit)Ab-3 group and IGF-IRalpha(1H7)L group have obviously increased (p < 0.01). After the number of cells was increased 30 times, the apoptosis percentage of IGF-IR(alpha-Subunit)Ab-3 group and IGF-IRalpha(1H7)L group have no remarkable differences as compared with control group (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Blockade of the IGF-IR with IGF-IR Mab inhibiting proliferation, arresting cell cycle and inducing apoptosis of HT-29 cells may represent a valid approach to inhibit tumor growth.

D002453	Cell Cycle	The complex series of phenomena, occurring between the end of one CELL DIVISION and the end of the next, by which cellular material is duplicated and then divided between two daughter cells. The cell cycle includes INTERPHASE, which includes G0 PHASE; G1 PHASE; S PHASE; and G2 PHASE, and CELL DIVISION PHASE.

D005434	Flow Cytometry	Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.

D017526	Receptor, IGF Type 1	A protein-tyrosine kinase receptor that is closely related in structure to the INSULIN RECEPTOR. Although commonly referred to as the IGF-I receptor, it binds both IGF-I and IGF-II with high affinity. It is comprised of a tetramer of two alpha and two beta subunits which are derived from cleavage of a single precursor protein. The beta subunit contains an intrinsic tyrosine kinase domain.
