Mechanism of apoptosis on pure polyphenols: analysis of flow cytometry / Nurul Zuhanis Mohamed
The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma is increasing in Malaysia and several new cases are being diagnosed every year. The purpose of this research was to find out the mechanism of apoptosis on pure polyphenols ; curcumin and gallic acid on HepG2 (hepatocellular carcinoma) cell line by using flow...

The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma is increasing in Malaysia and several new cases are being diagnosed every year. The purpose of this research was to find out the mechanism of apoptosis on pure polyphenols ; curcumin and gallic acid on HepG2 (hepatocellular carcinoma) cell line by using flow cytometry. HepG2 cell line was exposed to different concentrations of gallic acid and curcumin (IC25, IC50 and IC75) in 24 and 48 hours. The outer membrane protrusion of phosphatidylserine which is typically inaccessible in viable cells, is detected by annexin V-FITC, and indicates the early stages of apoptosis. From the results, these polyphenolic compounds significantly induced apoptosis in HepG2 cells. Result also revealed that gallic acid have the ability to induce early-apoptotic cell death (P<0.05) in HepG2 cells at lower concentration than curcumin. In conclusion, polyphenols which are curcumin and gallic acid are able to induce apoptosis on HepG2 cell line. This may be a beginning in the search for a new anticancer agent. |
