Abstract excerpt
Previous work has shown that phenobarbital (PB) can promote cell survival in double transgenic c-myc/transforming growth factor (TGF)-alpha mice. This was achieved through a suppression of cell death brought about, at least in part, by a general increase in the level of bcl-2 protein and a decrease in TGF-beta1 in treated versus untreated animals. No changes were found in TGF-beta type II receptor or in bcl-X(L)...
