Scutellaria barbata (Banzhilian) from the Lamiaceae family has been shown in vitro and in vivo to induce apoptosis and G2/M cell cycle arrest by inactivating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, while also possessing anti-angiogenic properties (Sheng et al., 2022), effectively inhibiting the proliferation and metastasis of prostate cancer (Hnit et al., 2020). This evidence concerns the gene AKT1 and Familial prostate cancer.
