Abstract Objectives Saponins are secondary metabolites naturally found in plants with diverse pharmacological properties such as anticancer. This research aimed to explore the anti-cancer of Polygalasaponin XLIV (PS-XLIV) a human colorectal carcinoma cell line derived from Polygala vulgaris roots. Methods HCT166 cells were treated different PS-XLIV concentrations and incubated for 24 48 h. We used immunocytochemistry investigate PS-XLIV’s properties, employing antibodies targeting WNT3A,...
