Mechanism of juglone-induced apoptosis of MCF-7 cells by the mitochondrial pathway.
This study investigated the nature and mechanism of juglone-induced apoptosis in the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7. The inhibitory effect of juglone on MCF-7 cell growth was evaluated by the dimethylthiazol tetrazolium assay. Morphological apoptotic changes were characterized using an inverted microscope, Hoechst 33258 fluorescence staining, and Giemsa staining. The rate of cell apoptosis...
متن کاملHydatid Cyst Killing Mechanism of Ziziphora tenuior by Inducing Apoptosis via Mitochondrial Intrinsic Pathway
Background and objectives: Ziziphora tenuior is considered as an appropriate protoscolicidal agent yet the mechanism of such effect is not known so far. The aim of this study was to evaluate the apoptotic effect of Z. tenuior extract on protoscolices of hydatid cyst. Methods: Protoscolices were collected aseptically and the Bradford test was e...
متن کاملThe endogenous oxindole isatin induces apoptosis of MCF‑7 breast cancer cells through a mitochondrial pathway.
Isatin is an endogenous indole in mammalian tissues and fluids that is expected to have antitumor effects in human breast cancer cells. Human breast cancer cells (MCF-7) were exposed to isatin at various concentrations (0, 50, 100, 200 µmol/l) for 48 h. Apoptotic features were demonstrated by nuclei staining with Hoechst 33258 and flow cytometry. Bcl-2 and Bax mRNA were analyzed via reverse tra...
متن کاملEconazole Nitrate Induces Apoptosis in MCF-7 Cells via Mitochondrial and Caspase Pathways
Econazole nitrate (EN), a synthetic compound, is now in use as a routine antifungal drug. EN was shown to have antitumor effect, the tumor cell killing mechanisms, however, remain unclear. In this research, the apoptosis-inducing effect of EN on MCF-7 cells was investigated. The results showed that EN inhibited the proliferation of MCF-7 cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner by MTT method ...
