18167055 Min R, Tong J, Wenjun Y, Wenhu D, Xiaojian Z, Jiacai H, Jian Z, Wantao C, Chenping Z: Growth inhibition and induction of apoptosis in human oral squamous cell carcinoma Tca-8113 cell lines by Shikonin was partly through the inactivation of NF-kappaB pathway. Phytother Res. 2008 Mar;22(3):407-15.

Furthermore, apoptosis in the Tca-8113 cells was accompanied by the activation of protease caspase-8, -9, -3 and low expression of Bcl-2 protein.

METHODS: Expression of IkappaBa, phosphatase-IkappaBa, bcl-2 and Bax proteins were detected by Western blot, NF-kappaB DNA-binding activity was detected by electrophoretic mobility shift analysis (EMSA), and activities of caspase 3, caspase 8 and caspase 9 were analyzed by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
