Centipede Polypeptide Affects the Inflammatory Reaction and Ferroptosis of Liver Cancer Cells Through the p53/TRAIL Pathway. [PDF]
J Cell Mol MedABSTRACT Various extracts from centipedes have therapeutic effects on liver cancer. This study aims to illustrate the impact and mechanism of centipede polypeptide (CP) on liver cancer. The suitable CP concentration and liver cancer cells were screened through CCK‐8 analysis. The expression of proteins was analysed by Western blot.
