Brucea javanica Oil Emulsion Promotes Autophagy in Ovarian Cancer Cells Through the miR-8485/LAMTOR3/mTOR/ATG13 Signaling Axis.

ABSTRACT: Background: Ovarian cancer is a common malignant tumor of the female reproductive tract, with the highest mortality rate. At present, no effective approaches to improve the survival rate exist. B. javanica Oil Emulsion (BJOE), an extract from B. javanica (L.) Merr. [Simaroubaceae], exhibits antitumor effects and can increase the sensitivity of radiotherapy and chemotherapy in many types of cancers. MiR-8485, a discovered miRNA, has been shown to be involved in the occurrence and development of tumors. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of BJOE on the regulation of mammalian rapamycin target protein (mTOR) autophagy signal pathway and related autophagy factors on ovarian cancer cells through miR-8485.
