Pro-apoptotic activity of imidazole derivatives mediated by up-regulation of Bax and activation of CAD in Ehrlich Ascites Tumor cells.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
In this study we report that, imidazole derivatives can induce apoptosis in Ehrlich ascites tumor (EAT) cells, which is clearly evident from annexin-V staining, flow cytometric analysis of cell cycle phase distribution and DNA fragmentation. Delineating further into molecular mechanisms leading to apoptosis of EAT cells, we observed that imidazole derivatives induce tumor cell death by the up-regulation of proto-oncoprotein Bax, release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria which activates caspase-3 and activated caspase-3 activates CAD (Caspase Activated DNase) causes DNA fragmentation. The status of Bcl-2 remains unaltered in EAT cells, and the under expression of Bcl-2 and up-regulation of Bax resulted in the increase of Bax: Bcl-2 ratio suggesting that Bcl-2 family involved in the control of apoptosis. These results suggest a further possible clinical application of imidazole derivatives as pro-apoptotic agent in association with conventional chemotherapeutic agents.
