Figure 6From: A peptidyl-glucosamine derivative affects IKKα kinase activity in human chondrocytesEffect of glucosamine (GlcN) and NAPA on inhibitor κB kinase alpha (IKKα) kinase activity using recombinant histone H3 as substrate. (a) IKKα kinase assay on recombinant histone H3 in the absence (-) or presence of 0.25 and 0.5 mM GlcN. (b) IKKα kinase assay on recombinant histone H3 in the absence (-) or presence of 0.25 and 0.5 mM NAPA. *P ≤ 0.05. Results are expressed as fold change with respect to control. NAPA, 2-(N-Acetyl)-L-phenylalanylamido-2-deoxy-β-D-glucose.Back to article page
