Crucifera sulforaphane (SFN) inhibits the growth of nasopharyngeal carcinoma through DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1)/Wnt inhibitory factor 1 (WIF1) axis

Sulforaphane (SFN), a natural compound present in cruciferous vegetable, has been shown to possess anti-cancer activities. Cancer stem cell (CSC) in bulk tumor is generally considered as treatment resistant cell and involved in cancer recurrence. The effects of SFN on nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) CSCs have not yet been explored. The present study aims to examine the anti-tumor activities of SFN on NPC cells with CSC-like properties and the...
