CASP3 and central nervous system cancer: The results showed that the higher the concentration of borneol, the higher the apoptosis rate of human primary cultured glioma cells, but the effect was reversed after transfection of HIF-1 overexpression plasmid; In addition, borneol could downregulate the expression of Bcl-2 and upregulation the expression of Bax and caspase-3, similarly, the effect was also reversed after transfection of HIF-1 overexpression plasmid, suggesting that the apoptosis effect induced by borneol in human primary cultured glioma cells is mediated via HIF-1α.
