Expression of CYP2S1 and CYP2W1 in breast cancer epithelial cells and modulation of their expression by synthetic methoxy stilbenes

null null Background null “Orphan” cytochromes are a new group of P450 cytochromes without a fully recognized biological role. The expression of these CYPs in tumors is higher than that in normal tissues, which makes them attractive as chemopreventive and/or therapeutic targets. In this study, we compared the effect of synthetic methoxy stilbenes and resveratrol on the expression of two orphan cytochromes, CYP2S1 and CYP2W1, in breast cancer...
