1 APE1/Ref-1 decrease correlated with decreased DNA-binding activity of NF-kappaB mediated by soy isoflavones and radiation, thus promoting cell killing. Isoflavones nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
2 In vivo treatment of prostate tumors with soy isoflavones and radiation down-regulated APE1/Ref-1 protein expression and NF-kappaB activity, confirming the molecular alterations observed in vitro. Isoflavones nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
3 The down-regulation of APE1/Ref-1 and NF-kappaB by isoflavones, in vitro and in vivo, supports our hypothesis that these markers represent biological targets of isoflavones. Isoflavones nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
4 The down-regulation of APE1/Ref-1 and NF-kappaB by isoflavones, in vitro and in vivo, supports our hypothesis that these markers represent biological targets of isoflavones. Isoflavones nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
5 Indeed, a 2-fold increase in APE1/Ref-1 expression, obtained by cDNA transfection, resulted in a 2-fold increase in NF-kappaB DNA-binding activity, and both of which were down-regulated by soy isoflavones, confirming the cross-talk between these molecules and, in turn, causing radiosensitization. Isoflavones nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
