This study initially predicted that quercetin was the primary compound in AYR that might have potential efficacy against CRC and that EGFR and AKT1 could be the main targets of AYR, with the EGF/EGFR-induced PI3K/AKT signaling pathway potentially playing a crucial role in the anti-CRC effects of AYR. This evidence concerns the gene AKT1 and colorectal carcinoma.
