The Effect of Matrine on Cytochrome c Release in B-ALL Lymphocytes. Matrine (3.4 mg/ml) cause cytochrome c release in the ALL mitochondria. The amount of expelled cytochrome c from mitochondrial fraction into the suspension buffer was determined using human Cytochrome c ELISA kit as described in above. Values (mean ± S.D.) are from three independent experiments (n = 3). ** p < 0.01(control vs. matrine-treated cell), # p < 0.05 (matrine-treated cell vs. cyclosporine-A pretreated cells)
