Melatonin inhibits proliferation, migration, and invasion by inducing ROS-mediated apoptosis via suppression of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in gallbladder cancer cells

Abstract

Our study revealed that melatonin could induce apoptosis by suppressing the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. Therefore, melatonin might serve as a potential therapeutic drug in the future treatment of gallbladder cancer.
