  • Overexpression of the proto-oncogenes in these cells was blocked by superoxide dismutase, catalase and BAPTA/AM confirming that the overexpression of the proto-oncogenes in the tumor cells required elevated levels of ROS and Ca. Inhibitors specific for transcription, PKC and MAP kinase also blocked the overexpression of the proto-oncogenes in the tumor cells. (cdc.gov)
  • we conclude that the Cd-induced overexpression of cellular proto-oncogenes is mediated by the elevation of intracellular levels of superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide and Ca. Further, the Cd-induced overexpression of the proto-oncogenes is dependent on transcriptional activation as well as on pathways involving PKC and MAP kinase. (cdc.gov)
