This study aimed to investigate the effect of Curcuma kwangsiensis polysaccharides on the viability of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE-2 cells, and explore the possible mechanisms. CNE-2 cells were treated with various concentrations of C. kwangsiensis polysaccharides, then the proliferation, apoptosis and the protein expression of apoptosis-related regulators p53 and Bcl-2 were assessed. The results demonstrated that C. kwangsiensis polysaccharides can significantly inhibit the proliferation of CNE-2 cells, which was possibly through the induction of apoptosis mediated by attenuating Bcl-2 expression and promoting p53 expression. The present study therefore indicates that C. kwangsiensis polysaccharides could be developed into potential drugs for nasopharyngeal carcinoma treatment.
