Atranorin Triggers Intrinsic and Extrinsic Apoptosis and Suppresses Migration in Human Melanoma Cells

This study is the first to demonstrate the potent anti-melanoma effect of atranorin. This demonstrates the natural compounds' effects on cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, and the suppression of metastasis. These findings emphasize the potential of atranorin as a novel natural compound for use in adjunctive or targeted melanoma therapy, and highlight the need for further preclinical and clinical evaluation.

Abstract

This study is the first to demonstrate the potent anti-melanoma effect of atranorin. This demonstrates the natural compounds' effects on cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, and the suppression of metastasis. These findings emphasize the potential of atranorin as a novel natural compound for use in adjunctive or targeted melanoma therapy, and highlight the need for further preclinical and clinical evaluation.
