p53-Mediated Cell Cycle Arrest and Apoptosis Induced by Shikonin via a Caspase-9-Dependent Mechanism in Human Malignant Melanoma A375-S2 Cells

Natural products regulate cell growth in response to oncogene activation that induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in tumor cell lines. We investigated the mechanisms of caspase activation in human malignant melanoma, A375-S2 cells, by the natural product shikonin, which was isolated from the pla...
