result sql = All-trans-canthaxanthin (4, 4'-diketo beta-carotene) but not 9-cis-canthaxanthin has been shown to induce apoptosis in some cell lines. In this study apoptotic activity of 9-cis-canthaxanthin on THP-1 macrophage is reported. Comparison of apoptotic activities of the two canthaxanthin isomers on this cell line by annexin V-cy3 and TUNEL assays indicated the higher pro-apoptotic activity of 9-cis-isomer than the all-trans-isomer. Canthaxanthin-induced apoptosis in this cell line was found to be accompanied by increased caspase-3 and caspase-8 activities, indicating its progression via caspase cascade. Induction of both caspase activities was higher by 9-cis-canthaxanthin than that by trans-canthaxanthin. All these results suggest that canthaxanthin stereoisomers differentially induce apoptosis of THP-1 monocyte/macrophage.
