Impact of Juglone, a PIN1 İnhibitor, on Oral Carcinogenesis Induced by 4-Nitroquinoline-1-Oxide (4NQO) in Rat Model.

: PIN1 is overexpressed in several human cancers, including prostate cancer, breast cancer, and oral squamous carcinomas. Juglone (J), derived from walnut, was reported to selectively inhibit PIN1 by modifying its sulfhydryl groups. In this study, the potential effects of juglone, also known as PIN1 inhibitor, on oral cancer and carcinogenesis were investigated at the molecular level.
