Table 3 Dot blot analysis of tyrosine receptor kinase phosphorylation in SW1736, HTh7, BHT101 and ML1 cells after short-term (10 min) treatment with 3 μM sorafenib

From: Sorafenib inhibits intracellular signaling pathways and induces cell cycle arrest and cell death in thyroid carcinoma cells irrespective of histological origin or BRAF mutational status
