Influence of Novel Supramolecular Substance, [2] Rotaxane, on the Caspase Signaling Pathway in Melanoma and Colon Cancer Cells In Vitro

We studied the influence of novel supramolecular substance, [2] rotaxane (TRO-A0001), on caspase signaling and cell viability in cancer cell lines. TRO-A0001 suppressed concentration-dependently cell proliferation. Expression of the cleaved-form caspase-3 and PARP was significantly increased in cell...
