[Antitumor effect and apoptosis induction in human cancer cell lines by BRM-SJS].

Background & Objective: It had been observed that BRM-SJS had antitumor effect in our clinical practice. This study was designed to investigate the antitumor activity of BRM-SJS, and mechanism of its action.

Methods: In vitro antitumor experiments with MTT method, meanwhile cell morphology, flow cytometry, and agarose gel electrophoresis were performed for determining apoptosis in several tumor cell lines.
