Abstract:TMEM16A plays a vital role in various physiological activities in the human body, and it is a potential drug target for many diseases. Recently, several studies have shown that the high expression of TMEM16A in lung cancer is closely related to the proliferation and migration of lung cancer cells. This work demonstrates that crocin is a new natural-product inhibitor of TMEM16A and it can inhibit the proliferation and migration of lung cancer cells through TMEM16A. Our results showed that crocin inhibits TMEM16… Show more
