Research progress on the anti-tumor effects of euphorbia humifusa.

EH (Euphorbia Humifusa) is commonly known as ground spurge, contains various compounds such as flavonoids, triterpenes, coumarins, sterols, tannins, and phenolic acids. It exerts a wide spectrum of properties including anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, Antioxidant, anti-viral, hypoglycemic, and anti-tumor. In this article, we focus on the antitumor effects of EH and its active constituents, providing evidence for further research on this medicinal herb.

The HOTAIR lncRNA: A remarkable oncogenic promoter in human cancer metastasis.

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is a new type of non-coding RNA that has an important regulatory influence on several human diseases, including cancer metastasis. HOX antisense intergenic RNA (HOTAIR), a newly discovered lncRNA, has an important effect on tumour proliferation, migration and metastasis. HOTAIR regulates cell proliferation, changes gene expression, and promotes tumour cell invasion and migration.
