β-Caryophyllene Enhances the Transcriptional Upregulation of Cholesterol Biosynthesis in Breast Cancer Cells
2019-03-06
Abstract excerpt
β-caryophyllene (BCP) exhibits anti-proliferative properties in cancer cells. Here, we examine the hypothesis that BCP induces membrane remodeling. Our data show that high concentrations of BCP increase membrane permeability of human breast cells (hBrC) causing detachment and cell death. At a sub-lethal concentration of BCP, we show that BCP induces a striking upregulation of genes involved in cholesterol biosynth...
