Plant parts NA
Other cancers Breast cancer
Target gene or protein Beclin-1, p62
Gene or Protein evidence Moreover, HT or OL treatment significantly suppressed HGF or 3-MA induced cell migration and invasion by reversing LC3-II/LC3-I and Beclin-1 downregulation and reversing p62 upregulation.
Target pathways NA
IC50 NA
Potency MDAMB- 231 cells were more sensitive to HT treatment than OL treatment.
Cell line/ mice model MDA-MB-231
Additional information  These data indicated that HT and OL may inhibit migration and invasion of TNBC cells by activating autophagy. These findings provide potential therapeutic strategies that target autophagy to limit the pathogenesis and progression of BC.
