Abstract: Objective: To investigate the effect and mechanism of Periplaneta americana polypeptide PAE2 on reversing multi-drug
resistance of human hepatocellular carcinoma drug-resistant cell line BEL-7402/5-FU. Methods: Human hepatocellular carcinoma
sensitive cell line BEL-7402 and human hepatocellular carcinoma drug-resistant cell line BEL-7402/5-FU were used as the research
objects. The cell viability was detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay. The mRNA and protein expression levels of
glutathione S-transferase- π (GST- π ), topo-isomerase type (Topo ) and protein kinase C (PKC) in cells were detected by real
time- polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and immunocytochemical staining. Results: The Periplaneta americana polypeptide
PAE2 can effectively reverse the multi-drug resistance of human hepatocellular carcinoma drug-resistant cells BEL-7402/5-Fu, and
can down-regulate the mRNA and protein expression levels of multi-drug resistance related enzymes like PKC, GST- π and Topo .
Conclusion: The mechanism of PAE2 on reversing multidrug resistance in vitro may be related to the down-regulation of multidrug
reactance-related enzymes.

Key words: hepatocellular carcinoma, multidrug resistance, cross-resistance, polypeptide PAE2 from Periplaneta americana
