Phytol Induces Apoptosis and ROS-Mediated Protective Autophagy in Human Gastric Adenocarcinoma AGS Cells

2015-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Phytol, a diterpene alcohol produced from chlorophyll, is used widely as a food additive and an aromatic ingredient. However, the molecular mechanisms behind the cytotoxic effects of phytol in cancer cells are not understood. The current study demonstrated that phytol induces apoptosis in human gastric adenocarcinoma AGS cells, as evidenced by an increased cell population in the sub-G1 phase, downregulation of Bcl...
