Brucea javanica oil inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of oral squamous carcinoma by regulated the MTFR2 pathway by Yihan Lai, Yihan Lai, Mingkang Li, Mingkang Li, Juan Zhan, Juan Zhan, Lin Jiang, Lin Jiang, Yuan Wu, Zhiyi Fang, Jianhan Zhou, Jianhan Zhou, Yujie Ma, Yisen Shao, Yisen Shao, Wei Wang, Wei Wang

“…At the same time, the expression of oxidative phosphorylation markers increased, the expression of glycolytic markers decreased, and glycolysis-mediated decomposition of reactive oxygen species decreased, and H2O2 and oxygen levels decreased.In addition, when MTFR2 expression increased or decreased, SOD2/H2O2 expression also increased or decreased.DiscussionIn this study, we concluded through in vitro and in vivo experiments that BJO may affect the SOD2/H2O2 signaling pathway by down-regulating MTFR2-mediated aerobic glycolysis, thereby inhibiting cell proliferation, Migration, and Invasion. The elucidation of this mechanism helps us to understand the molecular mechanism ofinhibiting OSCC invasion and metastasis by BJO, which has important clinical value or improving the survival rate of OSCC patients.…”
