Evaluation of Firefly and <i>Renilla</i> Luciferase Inhibition in Reporter-Gene Assays: A Case of Isoflavonoids

Firefly luciferase is susceptible to inhibition and stabilization by compounds under investigation for biological activity and toxicity. This can lead to false-positive results in in vitro cell-based assays. However, firefly luciferase remains one of the most commonly used reporter genes. Here, we e...
