Anti-cancer Effects of JKA97 Are Associated with Its Induction of Cell Apoptosis via a Bax-dependent and p53-independent Pathway
25 Jan 2008
Abstract excerpt
p53, one of the most commonly mutated genes in human cancers, is thought to be associated with cancer development. Hence, screening and identifying natural or synthetic compounds with anti-cancer activity via p53-independent pathway is one of the most challenging tasks for scientists in this field. Compound JKA97 (methoxy-1-styryl-9H-pyrid-[3,4-b]-indole) is a small molecule synthetic anti-cancer agent, with...
