Still, they proposed an applicable therapy by using AITC-conjugated silicon quantum dots (AITC-SiQDs), which showed similar anti-cancer properties to AITC at high doses; also, in glioblastoma cell lines, AITC induced apoptosis and suppressed glioblastoma growth in a mouse model, in line with the results presented in this paper, as TRPA1 is underexpressed in glioblastoma tumours and may have protective roles [10]. This evidence concerns the gene TRPA1 and cancer.
