Effect of aspirin, salicylic acid, 2,3-DHBA, 2,6-DHBA and 2,4,6-THBA (at 0.5 mM) on CDK2, 4 and 6 enzyme activity. (A) Upper panel represents in vitro kinase assays showing the effect of aspirin, salicylic acid, 2,3-DHBA and 2,6-DHBA on CDK2 activity. Lower panel shows coomassie stained H1 histones. (B) Quantification of the blot in (A). (C) Upper panel represents in vitro kinase assays showing the dose-dependent effect of 2,4,6-THBA on CDK2 activity. Lower panel shows coomassie stained H1 histones. (D) Quantification of the blot in (C). (E) Upper panel represents the effect of aspirin, salicylic acid, 2,3-DHBA and 2,6-DHBA and 2,4,6-THBA on CDK4 activity. Lower panel shows coomassie stained retinoblastoma protein. (F) Quantification of the blot in (E). (G) Upper panel represents the effect of aspirin, salicylic acid, 2,3-DHBA and 2,6-DHBA (0.5 mM) and 2,4,6-THBA on CDK6 enzyme activity. Lower panel shows coomassie stained retinoblastoma protein. (H) Quantification of the blot in (G). *P<0.05, **P<0.01, †P<0.001, ‡P<0.001.
