Article Title: Glycyrrhizic acid exhibits strong anticancer activity in colorectal cancer cells via SIRT3 inhibition
doi: 10.1080/21655979.2021.2001925
Figure Lengend Snippet: Glycyrrhizic acid inhibits the proliferation of colorectal cancer cells by inhibiting SIRT3 in vitro. (a) Lentiviral infection increases the expression of SIRT3 protein in colorectal cancer cells using Western blot analysis. (b) SIRT3 overexpression increases decreased the cell viability of colorectal cancer induced by 20 μmol/L glycyrrhizic acid for 24 hours. (c,d) Wild-type and SIRT3 overexpressing colorectal cancer cells were cultured with 0 or 20 μmol/L glycyrrhizic acid for 2 weeks, representative cell clone images (c), and statistical comparison of the number of cell clones (d). Each test is repeated at least 3 times independently. ns P > 0.05 and *** P < 0.001 vs WT group, and ### P < 0.001 vs 20 μM GA group.
