## Abstract Ursolic acid (UA), a pentacyclic triterpenoid compound, has been demonstrated to have an antiproliferative effect in various tumors. We investigated the cell killing effects of UA in the human hormone refractory prostate cancer cell line, PCβ3 cells. Also, the molecular mechanisms under

## Abstract A vast variety of naturally occurring substances have been shown to protect against experimental carcinogenesis and an increasing amount of evidence suggests that kaempferol may have cancer chemopreventative properties. However, the precise underlying protective mechanisms are poorly un
## Abstract Protein phosphatase (PP) activity is associated with the regulation of apoptosis in neutrophils. However, the underlying regulatory mechanism(s) in apoptosis remain unclear. The type of cell death induced by okadaic acid (OA), the inhibitor of PP1 and PP2A, is characterized by apoptotic
