Natural products (NPs) were a rich source of diverse bioactive molecules. Most anti-tumor agents were built on natural scaffolds. DC. was an important plant used to process the traditional Chinese herbal medicines "gansong". Pancreatic cancer was the fourth most common cause of cancer-related death in the world. Hence, there was an urgent need to develop novel agents for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. In this paper, nardoguaianone L (G-6) is isolated from , which inhibited SW1990 cells colony formation and cell migration, and induced cell apoptosis. Furthermore, we analyzed the differential expression proteins after treatment with G-6 in SW1990 cells by using iTRAQ/TMT-based quantitative proteomics technology, and the results showed that G-6 regulated 143 proteins' differential expression by GO annotation, including biological process, cellular component, and molecular function. Meanwhile, KEGG enrichment found that with Human T-cell leukemia virus, one infection was the most highly enhanced pathway. Furthermore, the MET/PTEN/TGF-β pathway was identified as a significant pathway that had important biological functions, including cell migration and motility by PPI network analysis in SW1990 cells. Taken together, our study found that G-6 is a potential anti-pancreatic cancer agent with regulation of MET/PTEN/TGF-β pathway.

Although gemcitabine (GEM) is the cornerstone of the treatment of pancreatic cancer (PC), GEM resistance frequently arises. Circular RNA (circRNA) circ_0075829 is highly expressed in PC. However, whether circ_0075829 contributes to GEM resistance of PC is largely unknown.

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a cancer with a poor prognosis, and nerve growth factor (NGF) is involved in the pathogenesis of PC within the unknown exact role. Herein, SW1990 cells and PC12 cells were co-cultured using transwell co-culture system and subsequently revealed that NGF was overexpressed in SW1990 cells and promoted PC12 cell proliferation. Knockdown of NGF expression in SW1990 cells using lentiviral shRNA effectively inhibited NGF expression in SW1990 cells and reduced its stimulatory effect on PC12 cell proliferation.

Chinese herbs are a huge treasure trove of natural products and an important source of many active molecules. The theory of traditional Chinese medicine compatibility (TCMC) is widely applied in clinical practice, but its mechanism is still ambiguous. This study aims to open a new window for this predicament by studying the interaction between the main active ingredients from a drug pair.

Alkaliptosis is a type of pH-dependent cell death and plays an emerging role in tumor suppression. However, the key modulation mechanism of alkaliptosis remains largely unknown. In particular, the nucleus, as the centre of genetic and metabolic regulation, is crucial for the regulation of cellular life.
