Apoptosis-related gene expression induced by Colombian propolis samples in canine osteosarcoma cell line.

Background And Aim: Osteosarcoma (OSA) is the most common bone tumor in canines and humans. This study aimed to assess the cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of Colombian propolis samples on a canine OSA cell line (OSCA-8) by evaluating the expression of , , , , and genes involved in the apoptosis pathway.

Materials And Methods: After treating the cells with five Colombian propolis samples (Usm, Met, Fus, Sil, and Caj), we evaluated cell viability and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release.
