Pre-clinical evaluation of cinobufotalin as a potential anti-lung cancer agent.

Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 452(3) , 768-74, (2014)

Lung cancer is a major cause of cancer-related mortality in the United States and around the world. Due to the pre-existing or acquired chemo-resistance, the current standard chemotherapy regimens only show moderate activity against lung cancer. In the curren...

Ceramide production mediates cinobufotalin-induced growth inhibition and apoptosis in cultured hepatocellular carcinoma cells.
