The most important up-regulated gene expression modulated by these compounds were associated with cytokine signaling, NFκB and ubiquitin protein lipase (inflammation), heat shock protein, RIKEN cDNA, T cell receptor gamma (ageing), FAS, myosin, squalene epoxidase, NADH dehydrogenase, Prostaglandin D (cardiovascular disease), and RAN, member RAS oncogene family (cancer). The gene discussed is RAN; the disease is cancer.
