Research Abstract |
The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the effect of nitorosylated- and phosphorylated-RKIP (Raf kinase inhibitor protein) on cell-proliferation signal in human gastric cancer (AGS) cells. RKIP-nitrosylation was significant reduction in the phophorylation level of RKIP in AGS cells. On the other hand, cell proliferation signal was up-regulated by an expressive increase in nitrosylation level of RKIP.
