Notch Inhibitor PF-03084014 Inhibits Hepatocellular Carcinoma Growth and Metastasis via Suppression of Cancer Stemness due to Reduced Activation of Notch1-Stat3.

abstract：:Cells contain a large number of antioxidants to prevent or repair the damage caused by reactive oxygen species. One component of the antioxidant system, manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), is localized in the mitochondria, and the levels of this protein have been previously shown to inversely correlate with pancre...
