1 In the present study, the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) in the effect of lycopene and beta-carotene on the viability of EC109 human esophageal squamous carcinoma cells was investigated. Lycopene peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma Homo sapiens
2 In the present study, the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) in the effect of lycopene and beta-carotene on the viability of EC109 human esophageal squamous carcinoma cells was investigated. Lycopene peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma Homo sapiens
3 Lycopene and beta-carotene treatments upregulated the expression of PPARgamma and p21WAF1/CIP1, and downregulated the expression of cyclin D1 and COX-2. Lycopene peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma Homo sapiens
4 These modulatory effects of the carotenoid treatments were suppressed by GW9662, suggesting that the inhibition of EC109 cell viability by lycopene and beta-carotene involves PPARgamma signaling pathways and the modulation of p21WAF1/CIP1, cyclin D1 and COX-2 expression. Lycopene peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma Homo sapiens
