Abstract excerpt
Elevated expression and aberrant activation of the src oncogene are strongly associated with cancer initiation and progression, thereby making Src a promising molecular target for anti-cancer therapy. Through drug screening using a temperature-inducible v-Src-transformed epithelial cell line, we found that andrographolide could suppress v-Src-induced transformation and down-regulate v-Src protein expression. In...
