CONOPHYLLINE
CONOPHYLLINE 用途与合成方法
Conophylline (100 ng/ml; 48 hours) reproduces differentiationinducing activity but not apoptosis-inducing activity of activin.
Conophylline (100 ng/ml; 72 hours) exhibits the differentiation-inducing activity in AR42J cells and converts these cells to endocrine cells.
Conophylline increases the expression of neurogenin-3 by activating p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase to induce differentiation of AR42J cells.
Conophylline reduces the expression of α-SMA and collagen-1 in rat HSC and Lx-2 cells.
Conophylline inhibits DNA synthesis induced by serum.
Conophylline also promots activation of caspase-3 and induces apoptosis in Lx-2 Cells.
