Effects of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein on egr-1 and c-fos promoter activities in BA/FGMR cells. (A) egr600CAT and c-fos-luciferase plasmids were transfected into BA/FGMR cells and the indicated concentrations of genistein were added to cells 30 minutes before stimulation. hGM-CSF=ninduced CAT activities (▨) and luciferase activities (;bb) were analyzed as described in the Materials and Methods. (B) Effects of genistein on various c-fos-CAT plasmid activities. The c-fos-TK-CAT plasmids were transfected into BA/FGMR cells and the effects of genistein were analyzed. The white bar indicates CAT value of unstimulated cells, and GM-CSF=ninduced CAT activities with () or without (▨) genistein were represented.
