Saikosaponin‑D triggers cancer cell death by targeting the PIM1/c-Myc axis to reprogram oncogenic alternative splicing
Saikosaponin-D (SSD), derived from Radix Bupleuri, has been identified as a potent anti-tumor agent targeting the PIM1/c-Myc axis. This study demonstrates SSD's ability to induce cancer cell death by reprogramming oncogenic alternative splicing in gastric and prostate cancers. The findings reveal that SSD significantly inhibits tumor growth in various cancer models, showcasing its potential as a therapeutic candidate. The research emphasizes the innovative mechanism of SSD, which disrupts the PIM1-Myc interaction, leading to decreased Myc phosphorylation and altered splicing factor expression, thereby providing a novel approach to cancer treatment.
