MET and gastric cancer: Luteolin inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis of MKN45 and SGC7901 cells.To further investigate the possible mechanisms involved in the anti-tumor effects of luteolin in cMet-overexpressing gastric cancer, we first examined cMet expression in a series of gastric cancer cells, including MKN45, MKN28, AGS, BGC823 and SGC7901 cells.
