Phytol induces programmed cell death in human lymphoid leukemia Molt 4B cells.

The exposure of human lymphoid leukemia Molt 4B cells to phytol which was isolated from Lolium multiflorum Lam and identified by MS, and 1H- and 13C-NMR, led to both growth inhibition and the induction of programmed cell death (apoptosis). Morphological change showing apoptotic bodies was observed in the cells treated with phytol. The fragmentation by phytol of DNA to oligonucleosomal-sized fragments that are characteristics of apoptosis was observed to be concentration- and time-dependent. These findings suggest that growth inhibition by phytol of Molt 4B cells results from the induction of apoptosis in the cells.

Electrocution injuries. A case report.

A case study of a high-voltage injury was presented. The short period that the patient was in contact with the electrical source prevented further systemic injury and may have saved her life. The patient's present neuritis is indicative of long-term sequelae of electrocution injury, in which ischemic necrosis of the surrounding nerves can occur near or at the site of the exit wound.
