Abstract: EAPSⅠ and EAPSⅡextracted from M.aeruginosa had inhabiting effects on tumor cells in cultivating normal and tumor cells and cancer mice. Results indicated that EAPSⅠ and EAPSⅡ are all toxic to cells of HEK293 but the toxicity is less than that of 5-FU. The growth of Hela, SP2-0 or U251 cells is all evidently restrained by them and the inhabiting effects go up gradually as the treatment time continues, and the highest inhabiting effects occur on the 6th or 8th day. EAPSⅠ and EAPSⅡ accelerate the death of Hela cells; and both show no significant differences with 5-FU on prolonging mice life by testing on S180 tumor cells.
