Shikonin Induces Glioma Necroptosis, Stemness Decline, and Impedes (Immuno)Proteasome Activity by Xianyun Qin, Lu Zhang, Jilan Liu, Yan Lu, Fuyao Zhou, Feng Jin

“…This study elucidates Shikonin’s capacity to effectively induce necroptosis in glioma cells, concurrently mitigating glioma stemness, as evidenced by diminished levels of stem cell markers, namely SOX2, CD44, CHI3L1, and CD24. Our findings indicate that Shikonin-induced programed necrosis leads to a downregulation of proteasome activity and a decrease in the expression of immune proteasome subunits PSMB8/9/10 and PSME1/2/3, contributing to the attenuation of stemness in gliomas. …”
