Differential Expression of Key Oncogenic and Tumor Suppressor MicroRNAs Induced by Andrographolide in Androgen-Independent PC3 and Androgen-Dependent LNCaP Prostate Cancer Cells

Although HEK-293 cytotoxicity and previously reported nephrotoxic effects warrant caution, these results support the potential of andrographolide as an adjuvant phytochemical capable of modulating clinically relevant miRNAs in prostate cancer. Future studies investigating optimized delivery systems and validating direct miRNA targets may help advance andrographolide toward safer and more targeted therapeutic applications.
