Apoptosis induction, cell cycle arrest and in vitro anticancer activity of gonothalamin in a cancer cell lines

Cancer is one of the major health problems worldwide and its current treatments have a number of undesired adverse side effects. Natural compounds may reduce these. Currently, a few plant products are being used to treat cancer. In this study, goniothalamin, a natural occurring styryl-lactone extr...
