Trip, triptolide: Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
Triptolide is a diterpenoid triepoxide primarily isolated from the traditional Chinese medicinal plant Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F (commonly known as Thunder God Vine).

Pathways:
-Activation of caspases (key executioners of apoptosis)
-Disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential
-Cell Cycle Arrest
-Suppresses expression of c-myc and mitochondrial hexokinase II (HK-II) in cancer cells

Type: oncogene
The MYC proto-oncogenes are among the most commonly activated proteins in human cancer. The oncogene c-myc, which is frequently over-expressed in cancer cells, is involved in the transactivation of most of the glycolytic enzymes including lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) and the glucose transporter GLUT1 [51,52]. Thus, c-myc activation is a likely candidate to promote the enhanced glucose uptake and lactate release in the proliferating cancer cell. The c-Myc oncogene is a ‘master regulator’ of both cellular growth and metabolism in transformed cells.
-C-myc is a common oncogene that enhances aerobic glycolysis in the cancer cells by transcriptionally activating GLUT1, HK2, PKM2 and LDH-A

Inhibitors (downregulate):
Curcumin
Resveratrol: downregulate c-Myc expression.
Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG)
Quercetin
Berberine: decrease c-Myc expression and repress its transcriptional activity.
