Ailanthone Inhibits Cell Proliferation in Tongue Squamous Cell Carcinoma via PI3K/AKT Pathway

Figure 1

AIL reduces cell activity and induces cell apoptosis in TSCC cells. (a) Chemical structure of AIL. The cell activities of Cal-27 (b) or TCA8113 (c) cells was examined after treatment with AIL for 24 h versus the control. Influence of AIL on apoptosis among Cal-27 (d) or TCA8113 (e) cells, as detected by Hoechst 33258 staining. The apoptotic rate of Cal-27 (f-g) or TCA8113 (h-i) cells after AIL treatment were detected and analyzed using flow cytometry. , , and , in comparison with the control cells.
