Prostate cancer cells elevate glycolysis and G6PD in response to caffeic acid phenethyl ester-induced growth inhibition by Tzu-Ping Lin, Pei-Chun Chen, Ching-Yu Lin, Bi-Juan Wang, Ying-Yu Kuo, Chien-Chih Yeh, Jen-Chih Tseng, Chieh Huo, Cheng-Li Kao, Li-Jane Shih, Jen-Kun Chen, Chia-Yang Li, Tzyh-Chyuan Hour, Chih-Pin Chuu

“…Abstract Background Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) is the main bioactive component of poplar type propolis. We previously reported that treatment with caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) suppressed the cell proliferation, tumor growth, as well as migration and invasion of prostate cancer (PCa) cells via inhibition of signaling pathways of AKT, c-Myc, Wnt and EGFR. …”
