Abstract:
AIM To study oridonin induced apoptosis in human leukemia HL 60 cells. METHODS Cell morphology, agarose gel electrophoresis and flow cytometry were used. RESULTS Oridonin had significant apoptotic inductive effect on HL 60 cells in both concentration and time dependent fashion. The marked morphological changes including condensed chromatin, nuclear fragmentation and apoptotic body were observed. Typical DNA ladder in agarose gel electrophoresis and pre G 1 peak in flow clytometric analysis were also observed in the cells exposed to Ori. CONCLUSION Oridonin can induce apoptosis in human leukemia HL 60 cells.
