Tetrandrine and thapsigargin release arachidonic acid from cells in culture and stimulate prostacyclin production in rat liver cells, but may do so by different pathways

BACKGROUND: Tetrandrine inhibits tumor cell proliferation and demonstrates chemoprevention in cancer models. Speculation on the association between its effects on K(+ )and Ca(2+ )channels and cancer chemoprevention has been made. Thapsigargin also affects K(+ )and Ca(2+ )conductance. Thapsigargin, h...
