Some widely used antidepressants such as imipramine, clomipramine, and citalopram have been found to possess antineoplastic effects. In the present study, these compounds were found to induce apoptotic cell death in human acute myeloid leukemia HL-60 cells. Apoptosis induced by the antidepressants w

## Abstract Thymoquinone (TQ), the major biologically active component isolated from a traditional medicinal herb, __Nigella sativa__ Linn, is a potential chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic compound. Despite the promising antineoplastic activities of TQ, the molecular mechanism of its pharmacolog
## Abstract As an extension of our recently published work (Mlejnek and Kuglík [2000] J. Cell. Biochem. 77:6–17), the role of caspases in N^6^‐benzylaminopurine riboside (BAPR)‐induced apotosis in HL‐60 cells was evaluated in this study. Here, BAPR‐induced apoptosis was accompanied by activation of
In a previous study, we showed that geranylgeraniol (GGO) is a potent inducer of apoptosis in human leukemia cells, including HL60 promyelocytic leukemia cells. The present study describes the effects of activators of protein kinase C (PKC) on GGO-induced apoptosis in various lines of leukemia cells
