Figure 5

Chalcones against cervix adenocarcinoma cell lines. ((10a) to (10c)) IC50 values ranging from 2.36 to 2.73 μM: increases p18 Bax, accumulation of cells in S, and G2/M phases. (11) IC50 of 4.7 to 7.6 μM: induction of caspase-dependent intrinsic pathway p53 and its transcriptional target PUMA upregulation.
