Exploring the Anticancer Potential of MonoHER (7-Mono-O-(β-Hydroxyethyl)-Rutoside): Mitochondrial-Dependent Apoptosis in HepG2 Cells by Chujie Li, Yue Wang, Jian Liang, Guido R. M. M. Haenen, Yonger Chen, Zhengwen Li, Ming Zhang, Ludwig J. Dubois

“…MonoHER has the potential to enhance the expression of caspase-9 and caspase-3, to damage mitochondria, and to provoke the release of cytochrome C from the mitochondria. Conclusion: MonoHER can inhibit cell growth and induce apoptosis especially in HepG2 human liver cancer cells by triggering the mitochondrial signal transduction pathway, leading to the release of cytochrome C in the cytoplasm and the subsequent activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3. …”

Heat Shock Protein 70 Neutralizes Apoptosis-Inducing Factor by Guido Kroemer

“…One critical step in the process of apoptosis consists in the permeabilization of mitochondrial membranes, leading to the release of proteins which normally are secluded behind the outer mitochondrial membrane[1]. For example, cytochrome c, which is normally confined to the mitochondrial intermembrane space, is liberated from mitochondria and interacts with a cytosolic protein, Apaf-1, causing its oligomerization and constitution of the so-called apoptosome, a protein complex which activates a specific class of cysteine proteases, the caspases[2]. …”
