    The wound-healing effect of 7,3′,4′-trimethoxyflavone through increased levels of prostaglandin E2 by 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase inhibition

    To find an inhibitor of 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) that rapidly metabolises Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) as a mediator of wound healing, we examined seven flavonoids for this role.

    Histone H4 deacetylation down-regulates catalase gene expression in doxorubicin-resistant AML subline

    We explored if epigenetic mechanisms could be involved in the down-regulated expression of catalase gene (CAT) in the doxorubicin-resistant acute myelogenous leukemia (AML)-2/DX100 cells. Down-regulated CAT expre...

    Advantages of the doxorubicin-resistant, acute myelogenous leukemia cell line, AML-2/DX100, for the screening of multidrug resistance protein inhibitors and pro-oxidants

    The doxorubicin-resistant, acute myelogenous leukemia cell line, AML-2/DX100, characterized by the over-expression of multidrug resistance protein (MRP) and the down-regulation of catalase, has advantages for ...

    Reactive Oxygen Species-specific Mechanisms of Drug Resistance in Paraquat-resistant Acute Myelogenous Leukemia Sublines

    Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-specific mechanisms of drug resistance were explored in paraquat (PQ)-resistant acute myelogenous leukemia cell (OCI/AML-2) sublines. For this, PQ-resistant AML sublines, AML-2/PQ...
