Abstract Chemotherapy is critical for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Despite the proapoptotic effects
of corosolic acid (CA) treatment, its underlying mechanism is not completely clear. The aim of this study
was to determine the molecular mechanism of CA in HCC treatment. MTT assay was used to determine the
IC50 of CA. Immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence were used to detect the interaction and subcellular localization of Yes-associated protein (YAP) and mouse double minute 2 (MDM2). In addition, in vivo
xenotransplantation was performed to assess the effects of CA, YAP, and MDM2 on tumorigenesis. The IC50
of CA was about 40 µM… More >
