1 Shikonin causes cell-cycle arrest and induces apoptosis by regulating the EGFR-NF-kappaB signalling pathway in human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cells. shikonin nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
2 In addition, shikonin evidently induced apoptosis due to decreasing Bcl-2 expression, increasing Bax expression, activating caspase and inactivating NF-kappaB, while pretreatment with a pan-caspase inhibitor Z-Asp-CH2-DCB abrogated shikonin-induced apoptosis. shikonin nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
3 Moreover, EGF could significantly increase the NF-kappaB DNA-binding activity and reversed the shikonin-induced inactivation of NF-kappaB. shikonin nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
4 As anticipated AG1478 (EGFR inhibitor) and Bay11-7082 (NF-kappaB inhibitor) blocked EGF-reversed the inactivation of NF-kappaB induced by shikonin. shikonin nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
5 As anticipated AG1478 (EGFR inhibitor) and Bay11-7082 (NF-kappaB inhibitor) blocked EGF-reversed the inactivation of NF-kappaB induced by shikonin. shikonin nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
