Seven cell lines (BL2, Jurkat, Karpas422, Raji, RI-1, SuDHL4 and U2932) representing different types of aggressive lymphomas...were treated with increasing concentrations of Brusatol...the protein expression profile of untreated cells indicates that cell lines with higher Myc-levels are more sensitive to Brusatol treatment....Our data indicate that Brusatol is able to efficiently induce cell death in aggressive lymphoma cells by reducing the expression of pro-survival proteins. Interestingly, cells with higher Myc-levels were especially sensitive to this flavonoid.
