Tityus serrulatus Scorpion Venom Induces Apoptosis in Cervical Cancer Cell Lines

Figure 3

Flow cytometry analysis of HeLa cells after exposure to T. serrulatus scorpion venom. SiHa (a), HeLa (b), and 3T3 (c) lines, treated with 250μg/mL T. serrulatus (TsV). Annexin−/PI−(Q4), viable cells; Annexin+/PI−(Q3), cells undergoing apoptosis; Annexin+/PI+(Q2), cells that are in end-stage apoptosis or are already dead; Annexin−/PI+(Q1), cells that are in necrosis.
