Nitric oxide (•NO) generation but not ROS plays a major role in silibinin-induced autophagic and apoptotic death in human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cells.

abstract：:Silibinin is an active constituent extracted from blessed milk thistle (Silybum marianum). Our previous study demonstrated that silibinin induced autophagy and apoptosis via reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in HeLa cells. In this study, we investigated whether the autophagy- and apoptosis-associated molecules ...
