1 | Within changed pathways, three genes were selected for RT-qPCR analyses as key candidates influencing inflammatory responses: CYBA (component of the superoxide-generating Nox2 enzyme), GSK3B (controller of cell responses after toll-like receptor stimulation), and EIF4E (a key factor of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4F complex that regulates abundance of other proteins involved in immune functions). | Superoxides | cytochrome b-245 alpha chain | Homo sapiens |
2 | Given that shikonin decreased the expression of CYBA gene of Nox2, in addition to the direct inhibition of the Nox2 activity that we have previously shown, it is suggested that one of its anti-inflammatory mechanisms could be attenuation of oxidative stress. | shikonin | cytochrome b-245 alpha chain | Homo sapiens |
