Piceatannol bolsteres fetal haemoglobin formation in K562 cells via p38 map kinase activation and ERK inactivation

Elevation of the level of fetal haemoglobin (HbF) by pharmacological agents is a safe and a promising approach for treating beta thalassemia. In this study, the effect of piceatannol was studied in human erythroleukemic K562 cells for their role in gamma-globin mRNA and HbF induction. The role of p3...
