Induction of Apoptosis in HL-60 Cells through the ROS-Mediated Mitochondrial Pathway by Ramentaceone from<i>Drosera aliciae</i>
17 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
Ramentaceone (1) is a naphthoquinone constituent of Drosera aliciae that exhibits potent cytotoxic activity against various tumor cell lines. However, its molecular mechanism of cell death induction has still not been determined. The present study demonstrates that 1 induces apoptosis in human leukemia HL-60 cells. Typical morphological and biochemical features of apoptosis were observed in 1-treated cells....
