Dimethyl fumarate suppresses hepatocellular carcinoma progression via activating SOCS3/JAK1/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) is generally used to treat psoriasis and multiple sclerosis. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the effects of DMF on hepatocellular carcinoma progression and its mechanism of action. , cell viability was examined using CCK-8 assay; cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry; angiogenesis was detected using tube formation assay; and autophagic flux assay results were examined using fluorescence microscopy.
