Benzylideneascorbate induces apoptosis in L929 tumor cells.
Sodium 5,6-benzylideneascorbate (SBA), which is known to be an antitumor substance, was found to induce apoptotic cell death of L929 tumor cells directly in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. The dying cells exhibited cell shrinkage, disappearance of cell surface microvilli, chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation into nucleosomal oligomers characteristic of apoptosis. These results indicate a possible mechanism by which SBA induces tumor regression in vivo.
