Target gene or protein Bax, Bid, Caspase 3, Caspase 8, cyt-c, p21, p27, p53, SMAC, Bcl-2, Bcl-w, XIAP, Survivin
Gene or Protein evidence The results from apoptosis protein profiling array evidenced that PMEAF stimulated the expression of 9 pro-apoptotic proteins (Bax, Bid, caspase 3, caspase 8, cytochrome c, p21, p27, p53 and SMAC) and suppressed the 4 anti-apoptotic proteins (Bcl-2, Bcl-w, XIAP and survivin) in MDA-MB-231 cells.
Target pathways Intrinsic mitochondrial related pathway
IC50 18.10 µg/mL against MDA-MB-231
Potency The results indicated that PMEAF treatment induced apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 cells through intrinsic mitochondrial related pathway with the participation of pro and anti-apoptotic proteins, caspases, G0/G1 and G2/M-phases cell cycle arrest by p53-mediated mechanism.
Cell line/ mice model MDA-MB-231
