BACKGROUND Previous research showed that granulized Fu-Zheng-Xiao-Liu has a significant effect on breast cancer. However, it remains unclear whether HER-2 plays a role in this anti-cancer effect. MATERIAL AND METHODS Serum of male SD rats administered Fu-Zheng-Xiao-Liu granules (SF) was prepared and used to treat HER-2 positive breast cancer cell line SKBR-3. PBS and herceptin were used as negative and positive controls, respectively. MTT was used to detect the proliferation of SKBR-3 cells. Flow cytometry was used to measure the apoptosis of SKBR-3 cells. Western blot and immunofluorescence were used to measure the expression change of HER-2. RESULTS Serum of male SD rats administered Fu-Zheng-Xiao-Liu granules had significantly reduced HER-2 expression at both mRNA level and protein level, significantly inhibited proliferation of SKBR-3 cells, and significantly increased apoptosis of SKBR-3 cells, compared to that of the blank control group or serum control group. CONCLUSIONS Fu-Zheng-Xiao-Liu granules affect proliferation and apoptosis through inhibition of HER-2 transcription and translation, providing an experimental basis for further study of the mechanism by which Fu-Zheng-Xiao-Liu granules affect breast cancer.
