RITA induces apoptosis in p53-null K562 leukemia cells by inhibiting STAT5, Akt, and NF-κB signaling pathways.

abstract：:A combined treatment with conventional chemotherapies can enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapeutic agents against cancers. Here, we have shown that the naturally occurring triterpenoids synergistically enhance the response of cervical cancer cells to taxol. Of the triterpenoid compounds, pristimerin enhanced the ...
