Its tumor suppressor properties are probably associated with contact-mediated growth inhibition.
Increased amounts of it can actually have negative effects however, and cause growth inhibition to the development of plant crops.
This growth inhibition correlated with a delay in G1 to S phase progression.
Jasmonic acid (response to stresses, growth inhibition, flower development)
This protein has been implicated in growth inhibition and the induction of differentiation of human cancer cells.
Drug testing data are represented as a mean graph that displays growth inhibition in a standard bar graph representation.
A separate study demonstrated growth inhibition against Proteus vulgaris.
Tumor cells need to overcome this form of growth inhibition before they can become malignant or metastatic.
When comparing cultures at the same dose, the longer the cells were exposed to gambogic acid, the higher the growth inhibition.
In some species however, light may lead to growth inhibition as they are sensitive to ultraviolet radiation.
