In vivo studies

Prostate Cancer (PCa)

50 mg/kg 5–100 μM,

DU145, PC3M, 293 T

MTA1, HDAC, ERK1/2, HDAC1, HDAC2, Lamin-A, myc, Flag

PTEN, AKT

RVT by regulating the PTEN/AKT pathway via inhibiting the MTA1/HDA unit could affect the progression and survival pathways of prostate cancer

[76]

In vitro studies

PCa

25–200 μM

LNCaP, RWPE-1, LNCaP-B

ARV7, Bax, Bcl-2, AR

PI3K/AKT

RVT via PI3K/AKT pathway and ARV7 could promote apoptosis in LNCaP prostate cancer cells

[79]

PCa

0–50 μM

PC-3

E-cadherin, Vimentin, Bax, Bcl-2, Caspase-3/9

PI3K/AKT

RVT via downregulating the PI3K/AKT pathway could suppress the EMT in PC-3 cells

[80]

Ovarian Cancer

50 mM

PA-1, OVCAR3, MDAH2774, SKOV3, PBMC, RBC, OSE1, OSE2

P70s6K, mTOR, 4EBP1, GLUT2, GLUT3, GLUT4, GLUT1

AKT

RVT via AKT/GLUT1 axis could induce apoptosis in ovarian cancer cells by impairing glucose uptake

[77]

Ovarian Cancer

0‑200 μM

A2780, SKOV3

Caspase-3

Notch1/PTEN/AKT

RVT via notch1/PTEN/AKT signaling could induce cell death in ovarian cancer cells

[78]
