Human monocytic leukemia U937 cells undergo apoptosis when treated with antitumor drugs, such as etoposide, camptothecin and mitomycin C. The molecular mechanism of the drug-induced apoptosis is not well understood. In this study, we found that 2-deoxyglucose (2DG), an analog of D-glucose and an ind

Cyclopentenone prostaglandins (CyPGs), derivatives of arachidonic acid, have been suggested to exert growth-inhibitory activity through peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-dependent and -independent mechanisms. Here we examined various eicosanoids for growth inhibition and found that t
We recently demonstrated the activation of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase 1 and 2 (ERK1 and ERK2) by IGF-1, FGF-2, and PDGF-BB in normal human osteoblastic (HOB) cells as well as in rat and mouse osteoblastic cells. In this report, we have examined whether c-Jun NH2-Terminal Kinase (J
