Comparative Effect of Sodium Butyrate and Sodium Propionate on Proliferation, Cell Cycle and Apoptosis in Ovarian Cancer Cells by Danaf, Daniella

“…Our results revealed that NaB and NaP inhibit proliferation and impaired spheroid formation of SKOV-3 and PA-1 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Moreover, both NaB and NaP induced cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase, which was further supported by the downregulation of cyclin A2 and B1. …”
