Farnesol abrogates epithelial to mesenchymal transition process through regulating Akt/mTOR pathway

Epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) refers to a phenomenon through which epithelial cells develop the metastatic and invasive potential, which are closely related to carcinogenesis. Farnesol (FOH) obtained from the oils of diverse plants can exhibit significant therapeutic actions against obesity, diabetes, inflammatory conditions and cancers. Here, we evaluated the potential effects of FOH on growth and metastasis and it was observed that...
