Uvaol Exerts Anti-Proliferative and Pro-Apoptotic Effects on Human Hepatocarcinoma Cells by Modulating AKT/PI3K Signaling Pathway

Abstract: Natural products have a significant role in the development of new drugs, being relevant the pentacyclic triterpenes extracted from Olea europaea. Anticancer effect of uvaol, a natural triterpene, has been scarcely studied. The aim of this study was to understand the anticancer mechanism of uvaol in HepG2 cell line. Cytotoxicity results showed a selectivity effect of uvaol with higher influence in HepG2 than WRL68 cells used as control. Uvaol presented anti-migratory capacity in HepG2, supported by the morphol… Show more

“…Callus tissue from the stems of A. arguta (Actinidiaceae) produced three ursane-type triterpenes including ursolaldehyde 41, α-amyrin 42, and uvaol 43 [26]. Of them, compound 43 showed anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and wound healing activities [27][28][29]. Antiinflammatory properties of 43 on DSS-induced colitis and LPS-stimulated macrophages have been explored detailly and completely.…”
