Ginsenoside Rh2 suppresses growth of uterine leiomyoma in vitro and in vivo and may regulate ERα/c-Src/p38 MAPK activity
Panax ginseng is widely used as a functional food in Asia because of its bioactivities. Here, we report that ginsenoside Rh2, an extract of red Panax ginseng, suppressed growth of uterine leiomyomas (ULs) in a rat model and decreased serum hormone levels in a dose-dependent manner. Rh2 also inhibite...
