A recent study has demonstrated that Bcl-2 is overexpressedin cervical cancer.62 In our previous study,it can be seen that chrysin and luteolin modulated caspases, Bax andBcl-2, in HeLa cells.20,33 In the present study, it canbe seen that individually chrysin and cisplatin upregulated caspases3, 8, and Bax and downregulated Bcl-2. The gene discussed is BCL2; the disease is cervical carcinoma.
