Sentences with phrase «in normal liver cells»

IL7R is expressed in HCC but not in normal liver cells, and can activate JAK2 to increase cell growth.57 SOCS3 is a negative regulator of the JAK / STAT signalling pathway, and can inhibit JAK2 itself.58 Therefore, inhibition of JAK2 by SOCS3 could result in decreased proliferation.

This was found to cause lysis in hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, but not in normal liver cells indicating that further experimental studies on SOCS3 could increase its future applicability as a cancer cell specific anti-cancer agent.59
