PARP1 and leukemia: Using leukemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma cell lines, 28–35 ppm G. pps extract inhibited cell proliferation by ~46–79%, which correlates with activation of apoptosis as indicated by increase in annexin V-positive cells (~5–8-fold), production of reactive oxygen species (~2–3-fold), cells in sub G0/G1 phase (~3–13-fold), caspase 3 enzymatic activity (~1.6–2.9-fold), DNA fragmentation, PARP1 cleavage and down-regulation of prosurvival proteins.
