Pitavastatin Induces Cancer Cell Apoptosis by Blocking Autophagy Flux

Statins, a class of lipid-lowering drugs, are used in drug repositioning for treatment of human cancer. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying statin-induced cancer cell death and autophagy are not clearly defined. In the present study, we showed that pitavastatin could increase apoptosis in a...
