- Abstract
- This study was aimed to elucidate the novel structure of HY253 isolated from the roots of Aralia continentalis and to evaluate its detailed mechanisms on apoptotic induction in HY253-treated HeLa cells. The structure of HY253 was elucidated based on the interpretation of the NMR spectra, as 7,8a-divinyl-2,4a,4b,5,6,7,8,8a, 9,9a-decahydro-1H-fluorene-2,4a,4b,9a-tetraol. The TUNEL assay using flow cytometer revealed an appreciable apoptotic induction in HeLa cells treated with 100 mu M of HY253 for 48 h. This apoptotic induction is associated with cytochrome c release from mitochondria, via up-regulation of pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 proteins, such as Bax and Bak, which, in turn, resulted in the activation of caspase-8, -9 and -3, and the cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP).
