Incomptine A Induces Apoptosis, ROS Production and a Differential Protein Expression on Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Cells.

ABSTRACT: Sesquiterpene lactones are of pharmaceutical interest due their cytotoxic and antitumor properties, which are commonly found within plants of several genera from the Asteraceae family such as the Decachaeta genus. From Decachaeta incompta four heliangolide, namely incomptines A-D have been isolated. In this study, cytotoxic properties of incomptine A (IA) were evaluated on four lymphoma cancer cell lines: U-937, Farage, SU-DHL-2, and REC-1. The type of cell death induced by IA and its effects on U-937 cells were analyzed based on its capability to induce apoptosis and produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) through flow cytometry with 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole staining, dual annexin V/DAPI staining, and dichlorofluorescein 2',7'-diacetate, respectively.
