Gene expression analysis using RT-PCR in HT29 cells after 24 h of treatment with BJEE.
Notes: Quantitative analysis of gene expression results illustrated significant elevation in the expression of Bcl-2, Bax, p53, Cas-3, -8, and -9 genes, compared to the untreated control group. Meanwhile, gene expression of NF-κB was slightly inhibited but it has not revealed statistical significant changes. The gene expressions were shown in 2 log fold changes of mean ± SD. *p<0.05 versus control group.
