Emodin-Induced Oxidative Inhibition of Mitochondrial Function Assists BiP/IRE1α/CHOP Signaling-Mediated ER-Related Apoptosis
Figure 3
Apoptosis induced by emodin was associated with ER stress-triggered Ca2+ release. (a, b) The intracellular concentration of Ca2+. Scale bar: 47 μm. (c, d) The protein levels of p-PLCγ, CHOP, and Caspase-12 in L02 were detected by western blotting assay. (e) Emodin-induced apoptosis of L02 cells cotreated with or without 2-APB was analyzed using FACS analysis. , , , and vs. the control groups; , vs. the emo groups.
