Inhibition of autophagic flux by salinomycin results in anti-cancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma cells.

Salinomycin raised hope to be effective in anti-cancer therapies due to its capability to overcome apoptosis-resistance in several types of cancer cells. Recently, its effectiveness against human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells both in vitro and in vivo was demonstrated. However, the mechanism...

Latest studies implicated interference with the degradation pathway of autophagy.
