## Abstract The present study was undertaken to examine the role of mitogen‐activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in apoptosis induction by phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), a cruciferous vegetable‐derived cancer chemopreventive agent, with DU145 and LNCaP human prostate cancer cells as a model. The MA
Sesquiterpene lactones have attracted much attention because they display a wide range of biological activities, including antitumor properties. Here, we show the effects of the naturally occurring sesquiterpene lactone asteriscunolide A (AS) on viability of human melanoma, leukemia and cells that o
## Abstract Activation of P2Y~2~ receptors by extracellular nucleotides has been shown to induce phenotypic differentiation of human promonocytic U937 cells that is associated with the inflammatory response. The P2Y~2~ receptor agonist, UTP, induced the phosphorylation of the MAP kinases MEK1/2 and
