HJC0152 suppresses human non-small-cell lung cancer by inhibiting STAT3 and modulating metabolism.

HJC0152 reduces cellular capacity to scavenge free radicals, leading to ROS generation and accumulation and apoptosis. This study provides a rationale for further developing HJC0152 as a potential therapy for NSCLC and provides insights into the mechanisms by which HJC0152 exerts its anti-cancer effects.
