Hepatocellular cancer cell lines, Hep-3B and Hep-G2 display the pleiotropic response to resveratrol and berberine
2022
Purpose Human carcinoma cells with different p53 status exposed to a combination of bioactive substances, resveratrol and berberine, revealed different responses in cell viability via p53-dependant apoptosis pathway activation. Materials and methods Using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium (MTS) assay, we investigated various and opposing effects in hepatocellular carcinoma cells, Hep-G2 and Hep-3B with different p53-status. Results Cells decreased in viability after treatment with dose-dependent concentrations of resveratrol and berberine. Hep-3B p53 mutants were more sensitive in comparison to the p53 wild type Hep-G2 cell line. A syne…
