Effects of PV on the expression of Bcl-2, Bax and caspase-3 mRNA in TPC-1 and FTC-133 cell lines. (A) The mRNA level of Bcl-2 was decreased in TPC-1 and FTC-133 cell lines following treatment with PV at IC50 at 37°C for 24 h. (B) The mRNA level of Bax was increased in TPC-1 and FTC-133 cell lines following treatment with PV at IC50 for 24 h. (C) The mRNA level of caspase-3 was upregulated in TPC-1 and FTC-133 cell lines following treatment with PV at IC50 for 24 h. Each bar represents mean ± standard deviation of three independent experiments. *P<0.05 vs. control group. B-cell lymphoma-2; Bax, Bcl-2 associated X protein; PV, Prunella vulgaris; IC50, Half-maximal inhibitory concentration.
