چکیده

مقدمه و هدف: مطالعات بسیاری نشان داده‌اند که داروهای ضدافسردگی می تواند اثرات ضد سرطانی داشته باشند؛ در عین حال، نحوه اثرات ضد سرطانی داروی ضد افسردگی آمی تریپتیلین بر سلول های سرطانی دهانه رحم روشن نیست. بر این اساس مطالعه حاضر به بررسی اثرات سیتوتوکسیک داروی آمی تریپتیلین بر سلول‌های سرطانی دهانه رحم پرداخته است.
مواد و روش ها: طی این تحقیق تجربی- آزمایشگاهی، سلول های سرطانی دهانه رحم با رده سلولی SW480 به گروه های کنترل (عدم تیمار) و تیمار شده با غلظت های 125/78، 25/156، 5/312، 625، 1250 و 2500 µg/ml داروی آمی تریپتیلین تقسیم بندی شدند. 24 و 48 ساعت پس از تیمار زنده مانی سلول ها به روش MTT اندازه گیری شد. داده‌ها با استفاده از آزمون آنالیز واریانس یک طرفه تجزیه و تحلیل شدند.
نتایج: زنده­ مانی سلول­های سرطانی دهانه رحم در تیمار با غلظت­های 125/78، 25/156، 5/312، 625، 1250 و 2500 µg/ml پس از 24 و 48 ساعت دچار کاهش معنادار شد (001/0>P).IC50  دارو برای 24 و 48 ساعت به ترتیب 1742 و 928 بود.
نتیجه‌گیری: یافته های این پژوهش نشانگر آنست که داروی آمی تریپتیلین دارای اثرات سیتوتوکسیک بر سلول های سرطانی دهانه رحم می باشد. نتایج این پژوهش می تواند در حوزه درمان سرطان دهانه رحم مورد توجه قرار گیرد.

چکیده [English]

Background and Objective: Many studies have shown that antidepressants can have anticancer effects; however, the anti-cancer effects of the antidepressant amitriptyline on cervical cancer cells are unclear. Accordingly, the present study investigated the cytotoxic effects of amitriptyline on cervical cancer cells.
Materials and Methods: In this experimental-laboratory study, cervical cancer cells with SW480 cell line were divided into control (untreated) and groups treated with concentrations of 78.125, 156.25, 312.5, 625, 1250 and 2500 µg/ml of amitriptyline. Cells were measured by the MTT method 24 and 48 hours after treatment. Data was analyzed using one-way analysis of variance.
Results: Cervical cancer cell survival significantly reduced after treatment at concentrations of 78.125, 156.25, 312.5, 625, 1250 and 2500 µg/ml after 24 and 48 hours (P<0.001). IC50 was 1742 and 928 for 24 and 48 hours, respectively.
Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that amitriptyline has cytotoxic effects on cervical cancer cells. The results of this study can be considered in the field of cervical cancer treatment.
