Product Application of Silybin CAS#22888-70-6
Silibinin has been applied in various research studies, including:
Investigating its effects on the expression of genes related to chromatin regulation in prostate cancer using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).
Evaluating its influence on cell proliferation in platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)–treated human Tenon’s fibroblasts (HTFs) by analyzing proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expression and conducting water-soluble tetrazolium salt (WST-1) assays.
Examining its impact on the gene expression of stromelysin-1 (STM1), acetyl hexosamines, and collagen synthesis during the process of skin wound healing.
Studying its inhibitory activity against Escherichia coli ATP synthase.
