Tenacissoside C

Tenacissoside C is an anticancer compound that inhibits angiogenesis. It induces apoptosis in cancer cells by downregulating the expression of apoptosis inhibitory factors and activating caspase-9 and caspase-3. Additionally, Tenacissoside C causes cell cycle arrest and promotes apoptosis in cancer cells through the mitochondrial pathway.
