Pholidonone, an active stilbene derivative from Pholidota cantonensis, exhibits pro-apoptotic effect via induction of endoplasmic reticulum stress in human gastric cancer.

Conclusion: Pholidonone can trigger ER stress-induced apoptosis through PERK and IRE1α signaling pathways. Pholidonone might be a potential naturally occurring antitumor agent. PMID: 31548837 [PubMed]
