“…Increasing evidence has suggested that plant polyphenols might be combined with conventional therapy (chemo/radiotherapy) to sensitize tumor cells to the treatment by inhibiting the pathway that leads to treatment resistance [ 9 , 10 , 11 ]. Pentagalloyl glucose (1,2,3,4,6-Penta- O -galloyl-β-D-glucose, PGG; molecular weight = 940.67 g/mol) (illustrated in Figure 1 a), a naturally occurring polyphenolic water-soluble gallotannin, is the main biologically active metabolite found, isolated, and purified in Bouea macrophylla [ 12 , 13 ]. PGG exhibits anti-cancer and anti-metastasis activity toward several types of cancer cells, including breast [ 14 , 15 ], leukemia [ 16 ], HNSCC [ 13 ], and prostate [ 17 , 18 ].…”
