Abstract excerpt
Phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) derived from cruciferous vegetables has shown anticancer activities by modulating apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, drug-metabolizing enzymes and even preferentially restoring a 'WT-like' conformation to p53R175H. But its molecular anti-cancer mechanisms are not well understood. Evidence shows that switching YAP-binding partners from pro-tumorigenic to pro-apoptotic proteins might...
