Induction of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Apoptosis Pathways in the Human Leukemic MOLT-4 Cell Line by Terpinen-4-ol

Abstract: Terpinen-4-ol is a terpene found in the rhizome of Plai (Zingiber montanum (Koenig) Link ex Dietr.). In this study apoptogenic activity and mechanisms of cell death induced by terpinen-4-ol were investigated in the human leukemic MOLT-4 cell line. Terpinen-4-ol exhibited cytotoxicity in MOLT-4 cells, with characteristic morphological features of apoptosis by Wright's staining. The mode of cell death was confirmed to be apoptosis by flow cytometric analysis after staining with annexin V-FITC and propidium iodid… Show more

“…Percent cell viability of HL-60 and MOLT-4 cells were reduced by terpinen-4-ol with a dose-dependence manner, whereas terpinen-4-ol had no cytotoxic effect on U937 as shown in Figure 1 and our previous report (Khaw-on and Banjerdpongchai, 2012). The IC 20 and IC 50 values (inhibitory concentration at 20% and 50%) of the terpinen-4-ol on HL-60 cells were 12 and 30 µM, respectively, which were used for further experiments.…”

“…Apoptosis induced by terpinen-4-ol and its underlying mechanism have been previously studied, for example, terpinen-4-ol induces apoptosis in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells (Wu et al, 2012). Terpinen-4-ol is able to induce apoptosis in human leukemia MOLT-4 cells through both the mitochondriamediated intrinsic pathway indicating by the cytochrome c release and the loss of mitochondrial transmembrane potential (MTP) (Khaw-on and Banjerdpongchai, 2012). Moreover, it has revealed that terpinen-4-ol induces apoptosis in human leukemic MOLT-4 cells in vitro via caspase-8-activated extrinsic pathways and also cross talked to intrinsic pathway by the presence of truncated Bid protein.…”

“…Moreover, the use of sesame oil did not need the hexane or methanol elimination process. For example, sabinene and terpinen-4-ol in Zingiber cassumunar 14,15 and zerumbone in Zingiber zerumbet 16 are water insoluble, so sesame oil can be employed to extract these substances from herbs. Moreover, the combination of sesame oil and herbal ingredients might provide benefits in terms of preserving the quality of active ingredients and preventing the lipid oxidation.…”
