DIM-C-pPhOH (7.5-20 μM; 24 hours; ACHN and 786-O cells) treatment significantly decreases cell proliferation[1].
DIM-C-pPhOH (20 μM; 24 hours; ACHN and 786-O cells) treatment induces Annexin V staining in ACHN and 786-O cells, confirming that DIM-C-pPhOH induce apoptosis, and also induces cleavage of caspases 7 and 8[1].
DIM-C-pPhOH (15-20 μM; 24 hours; ACHN and 786-O cells) treatment inhibits NR4A1-regulated expression of survivin, bcl-2 and EGFR in ACHN and 786-O cells. And also induces sestrin 2, activates AMPKα and inhibits activation of mTOR and downstream kinases[1].
DIM-C-pPhOH decreases expression of β1-integrin protein and mRNA and β1-integrin-dependent responses in MCF7, MDA-MB-231, and SKBR3 cells and also inhibits migration of the latter two cell lines[2].
