Acetylshikonin Induces Apoptosis in Human Colorectal Cancer HCT-15 and LoVo Cells via Nuclear Translocation of FOXO3 and ROS Level Elevation
Acetylshikonin, a naphthoquinone, is a pigment compound derived from Arnebia sp., which is known for its anti-inflammatory potential. However, its anticarcinogenic effect has not been well investigated. Thus, in this study, we focused on investigating its apoptotic effects against HCT-15 and LoVo ce...
