Abstract
⺠MCPT exerts antitumor effect against human cancer cells. However, the mechanism is poorly understood. ⺠MCPT induced cytotoxicity in seven human cancer cells. ⺠MCPT induced apoptosis, arrested cell cycle, increased ROS generation and the activities of caspases in A2780 and Hela cells. ⺠MCPT induced up-regulation expression of genes and proteins in both cells, with the TNFα and Fas/FasL pathway more prominent. ⺠MCPT may be a potent therapeutic agent against human cancers.
