Antitumor Effects of a Sesquiterpene Derivative from Marine Sponge in Human Breast Cancer Cells
In this study, the anti-proliferative effect of ilimaquinone, a sesquiterpene derivative from the marine sponge, in breast cancer cells was investigated. Ilimaquinone inhibited the proliferation of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells with IC<sub>50</sub> values of 10.6 μM and 13.5 μ...
