Abstract:Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), currently ranking as the third most lethal malignancy, poses a grave threat to human health. Ferroptosis, a form of programmed cell demise, has emerged as a promising therapeutic target in HCC treatment. In this study, we investigated the impact of ginsenoside RK1 on ferroptosis induction in HCC cells and elucidated the underlying mechanisms. Methods: The HCC cell line HepG2 was utilized to evaluate the effects of ginsenoside RK1. Distinct dosages of ginsenoside RK1 … Show more
