KAVA Chalcone, Flavokawain A, Inhibits Urothelial Tumorigenesis in the UPII-SV40T Transgenic Mouse Model
11 Oct 2013
Abstract excerpt
Flavokawain A (FKA) is the predominant chalcone identified from the kava plant. We have previously shown that FKA preferentially inhibits the growth of p53 defective bladder cancer cell lines. Here, we examined whether FKA could inhibit bladder cancer development and progression in vivo in the UPII-SV40T transgenic model that resembles human urothelial cell carcinoma (UCC) with defects in the p53 and the...
