Abstract
The Eph-ephrin system comprises emerging proteins involved in many pathophysiological processes. The pharmacological activity of the main metabolites derived from the intake of some classes of (poly)phenolic compounds, such as caffeoylquinic acids, flavan-3-ols, and ellagitannins, on the Eph-ephrin interaction was evaluated at physiological concentrations. Functional studies to elucidate their role in prostate cancer were also performed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
