To investigate expression of integrin beta1 and its roles on adhesion between different cell cycle hepatocellular carcinoma cell (HCC) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), the synchronous G1 and S phase HCC were achieved through thymine-2-deoxyriboside and colchicines sequential blockage method and double thymine-2-deoxyriboside blockage method, respectively. Expression of integrin beta1 on hepatocellular carcinoma cells was detected with flow cytometer. Further, the adhesive force of HCC to HUVEC and the role of integrin beta1 in this adhesive course were studied by micropipette aspiration technique. The results showed that percentage of each cyclic phases of the controlled HCC (non-synchronous) are: G2 + M phase, 11%; G1 phase, 54%; S phase, 36%; the synchronous rates of G1 and S phase HCC amount to 74 and 98%, respectively. The expressive fluorescent intensity of integrin beta1 in G1 phase HCC is depressed significantly than the values of S phase and controlled HCC. Accordingly, the adhesive forces of G1 phase HCC to HUVEC was significantly lower than the value of S phase cells (P < 0.01), but it has no remarkable difference when compared the adhesive force values of S phase HCC with control; the contribution of integrin beta1 was about 50% in the adhesion of HCC to HUVEC. It suggested that HCC would be synchronized preferably in G1 and S phase with thymine-2-deoxyriboside and colchicines, the adhesive molecule integrin beta1 expressed in a high lever in HCC and presented differences in vary cell cycle, and integrin beta1 played an important roles in adhesion of HCC to HUVEC. Possibly, S phase HCC take a great action in this adhesive course.
