The EO of another species belonging to the same genus, Cedrus deodara—containing high levels of β-himachalene and α-himachalene, has been reported to induce ΔΨm loss, caspase-3 activation and apoptosis in colon cancer cell lines, suggesting a similar mitochondrial involvement in its cytotoxic effect [53]. This evidence concerns the gene CASP3 and malignant colon neoplasm.
