Erufosine simultaneously induces apoptosis and autophagy by modulating the Akt-mTOR signaling pathway in oral squamous cell carcinoma.

abstract：:Inhibition of angiogenesis provides a potential anti-cancer therapy. Here we describe a novel recombinant peptide composed of active fragments of two distinct angiogenesis inhibitors, platelet factor-4 (C-13 fragment) and vasostatin (N-terminal amino acids 135-164) with a nonpolar peptide bridge of Gly-Pro-Gly. This f...
