Blockade of Leukotriene B4 Signaling Pathway Induces Apoptosis and Suppresses Cell Proliferation in Colon Cancer
We investigated whether leukotriene B4 (LTB4) and its signaling pathway play an important role in the progression of human colon cancer via a direct stimulation of cancer cell proliferation. Remarkable expression of LTB4 receptor 1 (BLT1) in human colon cancer tissues was detected by immunohistochem...
