PG - 317-20 AB - OBJECTIVE: The aim of this research was to observe the influence of ginsenosides (GS) on viability and proliferation of human peritoneal mesothelial cell (HPMC) which were inhibited by L-PDS in vitro. METHOD: Mesothelial cells were isolated from human omental specimens by trypsin disaggregation and established a stable HPMC culture model. The viability and capacity of proliferation of HPMC were assessed by lactate dehydrognase (LDH) release and tetrazolium salt colorimetry assay (MTT assay). RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the release of LDH in L-PDS groups (2.5%, 4.25% glucose) significantly increased. But there was no difference between the two glucose concentrations. As HPMC pre-exposed to L-PDS prolonged, the viability of cells decreased gradually. GS decreased the release of LDH and increased the cells viability (P < 0.01), as well as enhanced the proliferation of HPMC. CONCLUSION: The results suggest that GS has some protective effects on cell viability and proliferation of HPMC inhibited by L-PDS in vitro.
