Western blotting was used to detect the caspase cascade and Akt pathway-related protein with tetrandrine (TET) treatment in PC-3 and DU145 cells. Activation of caspase-3 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase, downregulation of phospho-Akt and Bcl-2, and upregulation of Bax were observed with 48 h treatment of TET. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase was used as a loading control.
