Abstract:Background
The polyether antibiotic nigericin has been demonstrated recently to have anti-tumor activity in multiple cancers. But the biochemical basis for its anti-cancer effects has not been fully elucidated. The objective of this study was to investigate the potential mechanisms of nigericin in pancreatic cancer (PC) cells.
Methods
PC cells were exposed to increasing concentrations of nigericin at different time periods, and the corresponding IC50 values were calculated. Then the effects on the biological… Show more
