Abstract: Objective: To study the effect of all trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) on the proliferation and apoptosis of human Tenon′s capsule fibroblasts(HTCFs) in vitro. Methods: Cell cycle distribution, the apoptotic rate and the expression of bcl-2 were determined by flow cytometry. Cell DNA was determined by agarose gel electrophoresis. Mitomycin C was used as a positive control. Results: Cell cycle distribution of HTCFs showed that cells of the G0/G1 phase increased and of the S phase decreased after the treatment with ATRA and MMC. Cellular apoptosis was decreased by ATRA at a lower dose (1×10-9mol/L), and the apoptotic rate was significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner. Expression of bcl-2 was significantly decreased by ATRA. A “ladder” strand of DNA was produced of the ATRA groups by DNA agarose gel electrophoresis. Conclusion: ATRA can significantly inhibit the proliferation of HTCFs and induce the apoptosis of HTCFs without apparent cytotoxicity.

Key words: Retinoic acid, Fibroblasts, Tenon′s capsule, Cell proliferation, Apoptosis
