However, the antitumor effect of umbelliprenin in human pancreatic cancer has not been clarified.  \nMethods: The antitumor effects were determined by MTT and AnnexinV/PI double staining assay in vitro and xenograft mice in vivo. Autophagy was determined via immunofluorescence analysis. Apoptotic or autophagic related proteins were measured by immunoblotting. The pancreatic cancer cell stemness were determined by mammosphere formation and ALDEFLUOR assay.  \nResults: It revealed that umbelliprenin inhibited pancreatic cancer cell proliferationin vitro and pancreatic cancer tumor growth in vivo. Moreover, umbelliprenin induced pancreatic cancer cell BxPC3 apoptosis and autophagy as evidenced by upregulated apoptosis and autophagy- related protein expression (p \u003C0.01) . Blocking autophagy by 3-MA or Atg7 knockout enhanced umbelliprenin-induced apoptosis (p \u003C0.05) . Umbelliprenin also reduced pancreatic cancer cell stemness by reducing Oct4, Nanog, and Sox2 mRNA levels (p \u003C0.01) . Mechanistically, umbelliprenin greatly inhibited Akt/mTOR and Notch1 signal pathway. Conclusion: Umbelliprenin may be a novel therapeutic approach for pancreatic cancer treatment.  \nKEYWORDS  \nAkt/mTOR signaling pathway, apoptosis, autophagy, cancer stem cells, pancreatic cancer  \nsurvival rate below 5% .1 The mainstay of chemotherapy combinations such as FOLFIRNOX and gemcitabine/  \nPancreatic cancer is one of the most highly lethal malignancy cancers in the world with a 5-year overall  \nnab-paclitaxel only slightly improve pancreatic cancer patients' survival rates but have obvious side effects.2,3  \nHongcheng Wang and Yongzhi Liu contributed equally to this work.  \nThis is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.  \n© 2023 The Authors.

Therefore, the development of novel anti-pancreatic cancer agents with fewer side effects are urgently needed.  \nPancreatic cancer contains various types of cells including a distinct subpopulation of pancreatic cancer stem cells (CSCs) . Pancreatic CSCs contribute to tumor cell selfrenewal, differentiation, cancer recurrence, metastasis, and therapy resistance.4,5 Markers that used to identify pancreatic CSCs include SOX2, OCT4, NANOG, ALDH1, CD24, CD44, and ESA.6,7 Pancreatic CSCs are regulated by aberrant activation of signal pathways like NOTCH, WNT, and β-catenin.8,9 Therefore, targeting these signal pathways may provide new therapeutic strategies in the treatment of pancreatic cancer.  \nIn recent years, medicinal plants have grabbed great attention for treating diseases such as cancer.10,11 Artemisia ab","cbCaijsKTwfZZFOP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijsKTwfZZFOP","pdf",6526428,12,"English","# Introduction\n## Background and rationale\n## Pancreatic cancer stemness\n## Autophagy and signaling pathways\n# Materials and Methods\n## Chemicals and antibodies\n## Key assays and in vivo model (overview)","[{\"question\":\"What is the main antitumor effect of umbelliprenin in pancreatic cancer cells?\",\"answer\":\"Umbelliprenin inhibits pancreatic cancer cell proliferation in vitro and suppresses tumor growth in vivo.\"},{\"question\":\"How does umbelliprenin affect apoptosis and autophagy?\",\"answer\":\"Umbelliprenin induces both apoptosis and autophagy, supported by increased apoptosis/autophagy-related protein expression and functional assays.\"},{\"question\":\"What mechanism links umbelliprenin to reduced cancer stemness?\",\"answer\":\"Umbelliprenin reduces pancreatic cancer stemness by lowering Oct4, Nanog, and Sox2 mRNA levels, accompanied by inhibition of Akt/mTOR and Notch1 signaling pathways.\"}]","Umbelliprenin induces autophagy and apoptosis while inhibits cancer cell stemness in pancreatic cancer cells - Research article | PDF",1790251976]
