The possibilities of using fluorescent research methods and their advantages for visualization and determination of the type of programmed cell death of human tumor cells under the action of flavonoids in experiments in vitro were investigated. The object of the study were the tumor cells of cervical cancer HeLa and A498 kidney carcinoma, the flavonoid containing extract of hedge hyssop (Gratiola officinalis L.) was used for testing in the experiments. The following fluorescent methods were used: the "living and dead" test with double staining - - iodide propidium and acridine orange, the method of double staining with annexin and iodide propidium. The confirmation of autophagy induction was performed using Muse cell analyzer with fluorescent reagents MuseAutophagy LC3-Antibody Based Kit. The application of fluorescent staining methods using double staining with acridine orange and iodide propidium in the "living and dead" test compared to phase microscopy allows to visualize the formation of apoptotic cells and autophagosomes in cells and, therefore, can serve as one of the methods of evaluation screening of the effectiveness of various chemotherapy drugs.

The paper presents the results of the research on the antitumor activity of a new drug - atomic clusters of silver (ACS), the colloidal solution of nanostructured silver bisilicate Ag6Si2O7 with particles size of 1-2 nm in deionized water. In vitro studies to evaluate the effect of various ACS concentrations in human tumor cells cultures (breast cancer, colon carcinoma and prostate cancer) were conducted. The highest antitumor activity of ACS was observed in dilutions from 2.7 mg/l to 5.1 mg/l, resulting in the death of tumor cells in all studied cell cultures. In vivo experiments on transplanted Ehrlich carcinoma model in mice consuming 0.75 mg/kg ACS with drinking water revealed significant inhibition of tumor growth since the 14th day of experiment (maximally by 52% on the 28th day, p < 0.05) in comparison with control. Subcutaneous injections of 2.5 mg/kg ACS inhibited Ehrlich's tumor growth on the 7th and 10th days of the experiment (p < 0.05) as compared to control.

Objective of the study: We used fluorescence imaging methods of apoptosis and necrosis in human renal carcinoma A498 tumor cells in vitro to reveal the indicated forms of cell death under the combined effect of flavonoid-containing extract of Gratiola officinalis and cytostatic (cyclophosphamide). Materials and methods: The dyes were propidium iodide and acridine orange, which were used in the “alive and dead” test. This test helped us to identify the total number of dead cells in the forms of necrosis and apoptosis and the number of cells in which apoptosis had started, it was characterized by the appearance of apoptotic bodies or nucleus pyknosis. Results: We found the most pronounced cytotoxic activity at the ratio of extract of Gratiola officinalis and cyclophosphamide concentrations of 1:1. The number of living cells decreased when exposed to the ratio of extract and cytostatic concentrations of 2:1. When the ratio of concentration of the extract relative to the cytostatic increased to 3:1, the cytostatic activity of the extract began to appear, the total number of tumor cells decreased. The number of cells with nucleus pyknosis and the number of cells with apoptosis signs significantly increased at a 3:1 ratio of extract and cytostatic concentrations, which confirms the presence of pro-apoptotic activity of the studied combination. This trend indicates the dependence of a certain form of cell death (apoptosis, necrosis) on the ratio of extract and cytostatic doses, and it also demonstrates the cytostatic and cytotoxic effects of this combination. Conclusion: Fluorescence methods of investigation in the “alive and dead” test allowed us to visualize the forms of cell death of human kidney carcinoma A498 by combined exposure to the flavonoid-containing extract of Gratiola officinalis and cytostatic (cyclophosphamide) 24 h after exposure. We found that the combination with a concentration ratio of the extract and cyclophosphamide of 3:1 has the greatest effectiveness due to stimulation of the cytostatic effect and cytotoxic effect.
