Task: Question Generation
Input (English): To study the effects of Gambogenic acid (GNA) on the growth of human gastric carcinoma cell line MGC-803 and its underlying mechanisms.', 'MTT assay was used to measure the cell viability. Apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), reactive oxygen species (ROS) were detected using flow cytometry method. Among them, Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining was employed in the analysis of apoptosis, Rh123 in analyzing MMP and H2DCFDA in analyzing ROS formation. P53 expression was confirmed by Western blot.', '4.0 micromol/L GNA inhibited MGC-803 cells growth in a time dependent manner from 24 to 48 h. At the concentration range from 1.0 to 12.0 micromol/L, the inhibitory effect was in a concentration dependent manner. After treatment with 4.0 micromol/L GNA for 48 h, apoptosis was obviously observed as assayed by Annexin V-FITC/PI staining. Importantly, MMP was decreased and ROS formation was increased following GNA treatment. Additionally, P53 expression was up-regulated following 4.0 micromol/ L GNA treatment in a time dependent manner.
Output (English): Does [ Gambogenic acid induce mitochondria-dependent apoptosis in human gastric carcinoma cell line ]?
