Dioscin is a natural compound that has been shown to have cytotoxic effects on human tumor cells. Dioscin has been found to be an apoptosis-inducing factor, which activates the mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis. It has also been shown to inhibit the proliferation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and HL-60 cells by affecting the bcl-2 protein and toll-like receptor pathways. Dioscin is effective in treating myocardial infarcts, as well as other injuries such as squamous cell carcinoma.
