Methods Twenty-four nude mice with SKOV3 cell line ovarian tumor were randomly divided into four groups with 6 in each group. TRAIL (10 μg/kg) was given to the mice in the TRAIL group; DDP (3 μg/kg) was given to the mice in the DDP group; TRAIL (10 μg/kg) and DDP (3 μg/kg) were given to the mice in the TRAIL+DDP group; and 0.5 mL of saline solution was give to the mice in the control group. The expression of Caspase-3 was detected with immunohistochemistry. The apoptosis index (AI) of cells was determined by Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated-dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL). Results The expression of Caspase-3 in the TRAIL group (171.67±14.38), DDP group (172.50±14.75), and TRAIL+DDP group (230.00±40.99) was significantly higher than that in the control group (135.83±16.25) (Plt;0.05). The apoptosis index for the control group, TRAIL group, DDP group and TRAIL+DDP group was 16.67±5.43, 33.17±8.42, 24.33±4.59, and 40.50±6.16, respectively. The apoptosis index for the TRAIL group and the TRAIL+DDP group was significantly higher than that in the control group and the DDP group (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Soluble TRAIL has an effect on enhancing the expression of Caspase-3 in implanted tumor in nude mice. TRAIL protein can inhibit the growth of SKOV3 cells in nude mice by inducing cell apoptosis.
