Popis: Natural medicinal compounds have gained increasing attention as adjuvants during cancer chemotherapy. The present study demonstrated the chemosensitizing effect of sesamol, a natural phenolic compound, in HeLa cell lines In Vitro. Sesamol-pretreated (10 μM) HeLa cells were exposed to 7.5 nM paclitaxel. The chemosensitization was estimated by MTT-based metabolic assay. Further, oxidative DNA damage, alterations in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and apoptotic morphological changes were analyzed. Sesamol treatment before paclitaxel treatment significantly decreased the IC
