Research unit Conclusions:

Our results demonstrate that THL induces G2/M cell cycle arrest and radiosensitization in MCF-7 cells. The main underlying mechanisms are proposed to involve tumor suppressor (p21 and p15) induction and DNA repair repression orchestrated by the downregulation of DNMT1. In order for the complete integration of THL into complementary cancer therapy regimens, a comprehensive and detailed investigation of its mechanisms of action is warranted, coupled with thorough efficacy assessments through clinical trials.
