Effect of tranilast in comparison with beclomethasone in chronic murine model of asthma.

abstract：:Wild-type K-ras is tumor suppressive in mouse lung, but mutant K-ras is actively oncogenic. Thus, the mutant protein must acquire new, dominant protumorigenic properties. Generation of reactive oxygen species could be one such property. The authors demonstrate increased peroxides in lung epithelial cells (E10)-transfe...
