Viability of cultured hepatocytes was assessed using the MTT assay, whereas apoptosis processes were evaluated by the electron microscopy, detection of DNA laddering, determination of caspase-3 activity, and measuring annexin V, p53 and Bcl-2 protein concentration.

AICAR, an AMPK activator, and quercetin down-regulated heat shock protein (HSP) 70 and increased the activity of the pro-apoptotic effector, caspase 3.

In terms of apoptosis, SFN increased the expression of Bax and decreased the level of Bcl-2 and subsequently triggered release of cytochrome c from mitochondria and activation of caspase-3, but Fas level and caspase-8 activity remained unchanged at all time points.
