Fig 6. Apoptotic protein expression in MCF7 cells.
MEAD up-regulate pro-apoptotic proteins (p53, Bax) and down-regulates the anti-apoptotic protein (Bcl-2) in MCF7 cells. MCF7 cells were treated with 15 and 20 mg/ml MEAD and Bcl-2 inhibitor ABT-737 (10 μM) concentrations for 24 h and staining is performed for p53, Bax and Bcl-2. The representative graphs are out of three independent flow cytometric analyses.
