The cytotoxic activities of the major diterpene extracted from Salvia multicaulis (Bardakosh) are mediated by the regulation of heat-shock response and fatty acid metabolism pathways in human leukemia cells

CONCLUSION: Candesalvone B methyl ester isolated from S. multicaulis exerted cytotoxicity by affecting apoptosis, cell division, and modulation of expression levels of genes contributing to the heat stress signaling and fatty acid metabolism pathways that could relieve drug resistance of leukemia …
