Objective: To study the effect and mechanism of oxymatrine(OMT) on proliferation and apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE2 cells. Methods: MTT method was used to detect the effect of OMT on CNE2 cells proliferation. Apoptosis rate was measured by flow cytometry. Western Blot was used to detect the expression levels of proliferation-related proteins, apoptosis-related proteins and key proteins of MAPK/ERK signaling pathway. Results: The inhibitory effect of oxymatrine on the proliferation of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells increased with the...
