AKT1 and non-small cell lung carcinoma: Supporting this, the study aimed to show that Cory, a natural product derived from the Chinese herbal medicine Uncaria rhynchophylla, inhibits the proliferation of NSCLC cells in vivo and in vitro and demonstrated that Cory increases PP2A activity and suppresses the AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway to induce cellular apoptosis in NSCLC, while inhibiting the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway that triggers autophagy.
