Monocrotaline-mediated autophagy via inhibiting PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway induces apoptosis in rat hepatocytes
Monocrotaline (MCT), a major pyrrolizidine alkaloid, is well-known for its high liver toxicity. Dysregulation of autophagy induced apoptosis can lead to various liver diseases, including those induced by chemical compounds. Therefore, we aim to explore whether autophagy might serve as a potential st...
