Berberine 183-192 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 14-19 20691179-8 2010 Western blotting with treated cells revealed that berberine induces apoptosis in MCF-7 cells through a mitochondria-dependent pathway by increasing levels of cytoplasmic cytochrome c, caspase-9 activity and cleavage of PARP while decreasing levels of Bcl-2. Berberine 50-59 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 251-256 23247593-7 2013 Meanwhile, berberine dose-dependently induced ROS generation, G(2)/M phase arrest and apoptosis in U266 cells, and decreased the levels of miR-21 and Bcl-2. Berberine 11-20 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 150-155 23247593-12 2013 CONCLUSION: In U266 cells, berberine suppresses NF-kappaB nuclear translocation via Set9-mediated lysine methylation, leads to decrease in the levels miR21 and Bcl-2, which induces ROS generation and apoptosis. Berberine 27-36 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 160-165 23682426-10 2012 Decrease of Bcl-2 and increase of Bax in mRNA and/or protein expressions showed that the Bcl-2 family proteins were involved in berberine-induced apoptosis. Berberine 128-137 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 12-17 23682426-10 2012 Decrease of Bcl-2 and increase of Bax in mRNA and/or protein expressions showed that the Bcl-2 family proteins were involved in berberine-induced apoptosis. Berberine 128-137 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 89-94 22850597-4 2012 In additional studies, treatment of QBC939 cells with different concentrations (10, 40, 80 muM) of berberine for 48 h resulted in a significant dose-dependent increase in apoptosis compared to the non-berberine-treated control, which was associated with an increased expression of pro-apoptotic protein Bax and decreased expression of anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL. Berberine 99-108 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 359-364 24278513-6 2010 Bax, caspase-3, p53, p38, and JNK activation increased, but activation of Bcl-2, ERK, and HO-1 decreased with berberine treatment with or without irradiation. Berberine 110-119 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 74-79 20930370-7 2010 Berberine also markedly enhanced apoptosis in T98G cells through the induction of a higher ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 proteins, disruption of the mitochondrial membrane potential, activation of caspase-9 and -3, and cleavage of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Berberine 0-9 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 104-109 18379040-6 2008 Berberine treatment also markedly enhanced apoptosis in T98G cells through the induction of a higher ratio of the Bax/Bcl-2 proteins, the disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential, and the activation of procaspase-9, caspase-9, caspase-3, and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Berberine 0-9 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 118-123 19846952-4 2009 Berberine-induced apoptosis was associated with a reduction of the mitochondrial membrane potential associated with changes in the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, release of cytochrome c from mitochondria and activation of down stream caspase-3. Berberine 0-9 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 135-140 18459128-5 2009 The berberine-induced apoptosis of both the A549 and H1299 human lung cancer cells was associated with the disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential, reduction in the levels of Bcl-2, Bcl-xl while increase in Bax, Bak, and activation of caspase-3. Berberine 4-13 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 182-187 18451495-4 2008 Combined treatment with berberine and cisplatin acted in concert to induce loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (Delta Psi m), release of cytochrome-c from mitochondria, and decreased expression of antiapoptotic Bcl-2, Bcl-x/L, resulting in activation of caspases and apoptosis. Berberine 24-33 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 216-221 16505103-5 2006 Berberine also significantly (P < 0.05-0.001) enhanced apoptosis of DU145 and LNCaP cells with induction of a higher ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 proteins, disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential, and activation of caspase-9, caspase-3, and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. Berberine 0-9 BCL2 apoptosis regulator Homo sapiens 133-138 17970084-3 2007 Berberine enhanced the apoptosis of Ca Ski cells with the induction of a higher ratio of p53 and Bax/Bcl-2 proteins, increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and Ca2+, disruption of the mitochondrial membrane potential, and promotion of caspase-3 activity.
