Bacaba (Oenocarpus bacaba) phenolic extract induces apoptosis in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line via the mitochondria-dependent pathway

2016-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Bacaba (Oenocarpus bacaba Mart.) is an indigenous palm fruit from Amazon region rich in polyphenolics. MCF-7 breast cancer cells were incubated with different concentrations of bacaba phenolic extract and its effect on cell viability was assessed. Extracts from bacaba showed antiproliferative capacities. Further experiments showed that bacaba phenolic extracts induced apoptosis in MCF-7 breast cancer cells through...
