  • Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a type of liver cancer that is difficult to treat and resistant to chemotherapy, prompting research into alternative therapies.
  • The study focused on evaluating the compounds from the Noni tree to find potential inhibitors of B-Raf kinase, a target in HCC treatment, using various computational techniques.
  • Five compounds, including Soranjidiol, showed promising inhibitory activity against B-Raf kinase and demonstrated good drug-like properties, suggesting they could be developed into new treatments for HCC.
