## Abstract Flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds which display a vast array of biological activities and are promising anticancer agents. In this study we investigated the effect of 5,7,3′‐trihydroxy‐3,4′‐dimethoxyflavone (THDF) on viability of nine human tumor cell lines and found that it was hig

Betuletol 3-methyl ether (BME) is a natural phenylbenzo-gamma-pyrone that inhibits cell proliferation in human tumor cell lines and induces apoptotic cell death in HL-60 cells. Here we show that BME displays strong cytotoxic properties in several human leukemia cell lines (U937, K-562, THP-1, Jurkat
## Abstract Exogenous β~2~‐microglobulin (β~2~m) induces significant apoptosis in the CCRF‐HSB‐2 human lymphoblastic leukemia cell line as detected by DNA fragmentation, DAPI staining and annexin V binding assay. β~2~m treatment induced the release of cytochrome c and apoptosis‐inducing factor (AIF
The mechanism of the induction of apoptosis by arsenic trioxide (As 2 O 3 ), which was demonstrated recently to be an effective inducer of apoptosis in patients with leukemia, was examined in detail in human leukemia U937 cells. Upon treatment of U937 cells with 50 M of As 2 O 3 , complete inactivat
