Abstract
Previous studies have reported strong antitumor effects of cisplatin and sorafenib. Our results indicated that cisplatin and sorafenib exhibited anti-tumor effects on gastric cancer cells. They significantly inhibited gastric cell growth and induced apoptosis. They effectively inhibited gastric cancer cell proliferation and induced G0/G1 phase arrest. Western blotting analysis indicated that it also promoted the phosphorylation extracellular signal regulated kinase (p-ERK). Moreover, cisplatin and sorafenib played a synergistic antitumor effect. These results suggested that the antitumor mechanism of cisplatin and sorafenib involved altering the cell cycle and stimulating ERK phosphorylation in the ERK signaling pathway.
