The present invention relates to the use of a
Streptococcus sanguis extract in the preparation of a
drug for the prevention and treatment of
cancer, belonging to the field of
pharmaceutical technology. To develop a new use of the
Streptococcus sanguis extract (XLS) in
cancer treatment, the present invention provides the use of a
Streptococcus sanguis extract in the preparation of a
drug for the prevention and treatment of
cancer. The present invention demonstrates the
inhibitory effect of the Streptococcus sanguis extract (XLS) on the
ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3. CCK-8 assays demonstrate that the Streptococcus sanguis extract (XLS) can reduce SKOV3
cell viability and inhibit
cell proliferation, invasion, and migration. Molecular biological experiments demonstrate that XLS inhibits activation of the PI3K / AKT signaling pathway by inhibiting AKT
phosphorylation, thereby regulating the expression of
apoptosis-related genes and inducing
apoptosis in SKOV3 cells. Furthermore, XLS impairs tumor
cell structure and function by disrupting mitochondrial
membrane potential, increasing
oxidative stress, and causing Ca2+ imbalance.
