Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Arnidiol is a pentacyclic triterpene diol that has multiple pharmacological activities. However, the apoptotic activities of arnidiol in human cancer cells have not yet been explored, nor has the mechanism by which arnidiol induces apoptosis been examined in depth. METHODS: MDA-MB-231 cells and xenografted mice were treated with arnidiol. Mitochondrial fission and apoptosis were determined by...
