Schisantherin A induces cell apoptosis through ROS/JNK signaling pathway in human gastric cancer cells

Gastric cancer is one of the most lethal cancers with unmet clinical treatment and low 5-year survival rate. Schisantherin A is a major compound derived from Fructusschisandrae while its anti-tumor role remains nearly unknown. Here, we reported that schisantherin A had an anti-proliferation effect on gastric cancer cell lines MKN45 and SGC-7901. Schisantherin A induced cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase and cell apoptosis, and inhibited cell...
