Gene expression profiles and pathway enrichment analysis of human osteosarcoma cells exposed to sorafenib.

abstract：:Sorafenib, the first-line agent for treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), improves median overall survival by approximately 3 months. In the present study, we investigated whether sorafenib combined with cucurbitacin B (CuB), a natural tetracyclic triterpenoid isolated from Cucurbitaceae, exerts enhanc...
