Potent inhibitory effect of terpenoids from Acanthopanax trifoliatus on growth of PC-3 prostate cancer cells in vitro and in vivo is associated with suppression of NF-κB and STAT3 signalling
Five terpenoids (1–5) from a vegetable plant Acanthopanax trifoliatus (L.) Merr. were investigated for their effects on human prostate cancer cells.
