SP1 and non-small cell lung carcinoma: Our microarray, qRT-PCR, and luciferase assay data showed that CUR suppresses the Sp-1 activation and its downstream genes including ADEM10, calmodulin, EPHB2, HDAC4, and SEPP1 in a concentration-dependent manner in CRC cell lines; these results are consistent with other studies where it has been reported that CUR suppresses the Sp-1 activity in bladder cancer [33] and decreases DNA binding activity of Sp-1 in NSCLC cells [34].
