Other cancers Breast cancer
Target gene or protein Caspase 3, PARP
Gene or Protein evidence he mode of cell death in cancer cells was shown to be apoptosis due to the presence of pyknotic nuclei, the cleavage of poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and/or the activation of caspase-3.
Target pathways NA
IC50 NA
Potency At selected doses (125-500 μg/ml), the H. adenotrichum extract exhibited significant genotoxic activity in human lymphocytes, whereas it showed anti-growth effects on cancer cell lines between 0.2 and 100 μg/ml concentrations.
Cell line/ mice model MCF-7, MDA-MB-231
Additional information  These results suggest that H. adenotrichum might show both cytotoxic and genotoxic effects depending on the cell type. This should be taken into account in its use for therapeutic purposes.
