Similarly, ellagic acid (36.6 μM) inhibited cell growth and the invasiveness of ovarian cancer SKOV-3 cells and stimulated apoptosis by activating cytotoxic autophagy, as indicated by the increase in the levels of Beclin 1, ATG5, LC3I/II and decrease in p62 [239]. The gene discussed is SQSTM1; the disease is ovarian carcinoma.
