Cucurbitacin IIA

SKU: orb1303390

Description

Cucurbitacin IIA is a bioactive compound that induces apoptosis and enhances autophagy, contributing to its anti-inflammatory effects. It also acts as an anti-cancer agent by disrupting the actin cytoskeleton and inhibiting the JAK2/STAT3/survivin pathway, leading to PARP-mediated cell death. Its mechanisms are studied in vitro for oncology and inflammation-related disease research.
