Protopanaxadiol Induces Apoptosis in NPC/HK1 Human Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Cells <i>via</i> the Fas/Caspase-8 Signaling Pathway
Protopanaxadiol selectively suppresses NPC/HK1 growth, induces apoptotic markers, and promotes apoptosis via the Fas/caspase-8 signaling pathway. These findings provide foundational evidence that protopanaxadiol is a promising candidate to improve NPC therapy.
