0404 inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma through a p53/miR-34a/SIRT1 positive feedback loop

Abstract DNA-damaging agents have been used in cancer chemotherapy for a long history. Unfortunately, chemotherapeutic treatment strategies against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are still ineffective. We screened a novel DNA-damaging compound, designated as 0404, by using time-dependent cellular re...
