Figure 5From: Involvement of Akt/NF-κB pathway in antitumor effects of parthenolide on glioblastoma cells in vitro and in vivo Akt Phosphorylation. Glioblastoma cells were stimulated with PMA prior to parthenolide treatment, and Akt phosphorylation was analysed by western blotting. Representative blots are shown. Akt expression and phosphorylation in both glioblastoma cell lines was stimulated by PMA, but suppressed by parthenolide in a dose-dependent manner.Back to article page
