Epidemiologic studies have shown that nonsteroidal anti - inflammatory drugs could reduce the risk of cancer development including gastric cancer. This study was performed to identify the antineoplastic mechanism in gastric cancer cells affected by celecoxib, a selective COX-2 inhibitor. MTT assay, ELISA for prostaglandin E-2 (PGE(2)), cell-cycle analyses, immunofluorescent staining, and flow cytometry were performed after treating human gastric cancer cell lines (AGS and MKN-45) with celecoxib or indomethacin. The viabilities of celecoxib-treated cells decreased in a dose- and time-dependent manner compared with indomethacin. Drop of PGE(2) levels was more prominent in the presence of indomethacin than in that of celecoxib. Celecoxib arrested the cell cycle in the G(0)-G(1) phase, which reduced cell numbers in the S phase. Moreover, celecoxib increased the apoptotic cell proportions, a 4-fold increase over control cells. The anticancer effects of celecoxib on gastric cancer cells appear to be mediated by cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis, and not by COX-2 or PGE(2) suppression alone.
