“…It is an important challenge to find effective and economic antitumor drugs with minimum side effects. A large number of literature studies have shown that MG has antitumor activity against colon cancer (Kang et al, 2012;Park et al, 2012), prostate cancer , liver cancer, lung cancer (Seo et al, 2011;Shen et al, 2017), gastric cancer (Rasul et al, 2012), cholangiocarcinoma (Zhang FH et al, 2017), oral cancer (Hsieh et al, 2018), ovarian cancer (Chuang et al, 2011), breast cancer (Liu et al, 2013), and melanoma (Cheng et al, 2020). MG suppressed the growth, migration, and invasion of tumor cells and promoted apoptosis as well as autophagy by acting on caspase-8, caspase-3, and other proteins participated in the p53, MAPK, NF-κB, TLR, HIF-1α/VEGF, PI3K/Akt/ERK/ mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways (Chen et al, 2013;Liu et al, 2013;Li et al, 2015;Shen et al, 2017;Zhang P et al, 2017).…”
