Apoptosis Activation in Thyroid Cancer Cells by Jatrorrhizine-Platinum(II) Complex via Downregulation of PI3K/AKT/Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) Pathway.

CONCLUSIONS The JR-P(II) induced cytotoxicity in thyroid cancer cells by inhibiting the mechanism responsible for repair of double-stranded DNA. The in vivo data also revealed that JR-P(II) effectively inhibits thyroid tumor growth by inducing DNA damage. Thus, our results suggest that further evaluation of JR-P(II) as a therapeutic candidate for thyroid cancer is warranted. PMID: 32341329 [PubMed - in process]
