摘要:
Farnesyltransferase inhibitors (FTIs) were developed to prevent Ras processing and thus to be effective agents for the treatment of cancers harbouring mutated ras. In the present study, HepG2 cells underwent internucleosomal DNA fragmentation after treatment with farnesyltransferase inhibitor manumycin (20 muM) for 12 h. Flow cytometric analysis showed that HepG2 cells were accumulated in the G(2)/M phase of the cell cycle and the number of apoptotic sub-G1 fraction of cells was increased after treatment with manumycin in a time-dependent manner. During the induction of apoptosis, expression o...
