It has also been shown to emerge with anti-inflammatory and anti-tumour properties by the induction of apoptosis and modulating different signalling pathways, such as mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), p38, Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in gastric cancer, and neurofibroma (Li et al., 2008; Lee et al., 2019). This evidence concerns the gene MAPK8 and neoplasm.
