1 Nicotine suppresses apoptosis by regulating alpha7nAChR/Prx1 axis in oral precancerous lesions. Nicotine cholinergic receptor, nicotinic, alpha polypeptide 7 Mus musculus
2 In DOK cells, Prx1 knockdown and blocking alpha7nAChR activated apoptosis, and nicotine increased the expression of Prx1, alpha3nAChR and alpha7nAChR, and inhibited MAPK activation. Nicotine cholinergic receptor, nicotinic, alpha polypeptide 7 Mus musculus
3 Moreover, nicotine suppressed apoptosis depending on Prx1 and alpha7nAChR in DOK cells. Nicotine cholinergic receptor, nicotinic, alpha polypeptide 7 Mus musculus
4 Our data demonstrate that nicotine inhibits cell apoptosis and promotes the growth of oral precancerous lesions via regulating alpha7nAChR/Prx1 during carcinogenesis of OSCC. Nicotine cholinergic receptor, nicotinic, alpha polypeptide 7 Mus musculus
