Drug resistance in lung cancer is a growing and challenging problem affecting the overall treatment and quality of the patient's life. The main purpose of the current study was to investigate the anticancer effects of flavokawain-B in gemcitabine-resistant non-small lung cancer cells
Flavokawain B (FKB) possesses strong anti-neoplastic activity against many cancer cells. Here we assessed its antitumor activity and molecular mechanisms in lung cancer H460 cells in vitro. FKB significantly inhibited cell proliferation and caused arrest of the cell cycle G2-M of H460 cells in a
Chalcones found in fruits and vegetables have promising cancer chemopreventive properties. This study attempts to identify the anticancer efficacies of chalcone flavokawain B (FKB) in the rhizomes of Alpinia pricei Hayata by examining key molecular events in non-small-cell lung cancer (A549) cells.
