HCT 116 CVCL_0291 Colon carcinoma Homo sapiens
HCT 15 CVCL_0292 Colon adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens
                    Experimental
                    Result(s)
The cytotoxic synergy by the combination treatment involved the activation of caspase-1, caspase-3, and caspase-8 and generated huge chromosomal degradation. TNF-alpha treatment resulted in nuclear factor (NF)-kappa B activation, while flavopiridol inhibited the NF-kappa B-dependent gene transcription.

                    Regulation
Neutralization TNFAlpha-induced free radical O2-
                    In-vitro Model ARAC-8C CVCL_GZ09 T acute lymphoblastic leukemia Homo sapiens
                    Experimental
                    Result(s)
Wogonin attenuates NF-kappaB activity by shifting TNFalpha-induced free radical .O(2)(-) to a more reduced nonradical product, H(2)O(2), and thereby sensitizes TNFalpha-resistant leukemia cells to TNFalpha-induced apoptosis.
