Synergistic effects of S-alkenylmercaptocysteine (CySSR) species derived from Allium tissue and selenium on inducing apoptosis in ER− breast cancer cells

S-Allylmercaptocysteine (CySSA) from garlic and its onion analog S-1-propenylmercaptocysteine (CySSPe) show potential anti-cancer abilities. In this study, apoptosis induction by these two S-alk(en)lymercaptocysteine (CySSR) analogs in combination with Na2SeO3 (Se) was investigated in MDA-MD-231 bre...
