Treatment of CGC with 2,4-D appears to induce apoptosis by a direct effect on mitochondria producing cytochrome c release and consequently activation of caspase-3, being mitochondrial damage sufficient for triggering the events that may cause apoptosis.

While an inhibitor of caspase-9, as well as caspase-9 and caspase-3 inhibitors in combination, strongly blocked DMA-2,4-D-induced apoptosis, an inhibitor of caspase-3 had a moderate inhibitory effect.
