Inhibition of p53 Protein Phosphorylation by 9‐Hydroxyellipticine: A Possible Anticancer Mechanism
1 Sept 1995
Abstract excerpt
Abnormality of p53, a tumor suppressor gene, is considered to be a potential cause of malignancy. We found that ellipticine and 9-hydroxyellipticine (9HE), antitumor alkaloids, caused selective inhibition of p53 protein phosphorylation in Lewis lung carcinoma and SW480 (human colon cancer cell line) in a concentration-dependent manner from 0.1 to 100 microM. 9HE suppressed cdk2 kinase activity...
