Ptaquiloside-induced cytotoxicity in Crandall feline kidney and HGC-27 cells
Oncology Letters, 2014 Ptaquiloside (PTA) is a potent genotoxic carcinogenic compound, which is found in bracken ferns and predominantly causes gastric tumors in humans, as well as bladder tumors and chronic enzootic hematuria in cattle. The underlying molecular mechanisms of PTA remain a topic for interdisciplinary investigation.
