Cordycepin regulates the expression of apoptosis-related proteins in human gallbladder cancer cells.
(A,B) The expression of caspase-3, caspase-9, PARP, cleaved-caspase-3, cleaved-caspase-9, cleaved-PARP, Bax and Bcl-2 in NOZ and GBC-SD cells was investigated by western blot analysis after treatment with various concentrations of cordycepin for 48 h. β-actin was used as a loading control. (C,D) The Bcl-2/Bax ratio was evaluated by the band density compared with the control (designated as 1.00), and the results are presented as the mean ± SD. * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01; *** p < 0.001.
