Role of Episamarcandin in Promoting the Apoptosis of Human Colon Cancer HCT116 Cells through the PI3K-Akt Signaling Pathway
This study identifies the active ingredients of Ferula sinkiangensis and investigates the role and mechanism of episamarcandin in colon cancer cells. The silica gel column chromatography was utilized to separate the chemical components of Ferula sinkiangensis. Sephadex LH-20 and semipreparative HPLC...
