Figure 3 Roles of the intracellular chloride concentration in cell cycle progression of gastric cancer cells. The intracellular chloride concentration ([Cl-]i) affects the cell proliferation via activation of p38 and/or JNK cascades through upregulation of the p21. The decrease of the [Cl-]i causes the G0/G1 phase arrest by diminishing expression of CDK2 and phosphorylated Rb due to an increase in expression of p21.
