Stevioside as a potential therapeutic agent: inhibiting cell growth and regulating epithelial-mesenchymal transitions in oral squamous cell carcinoma

In conclusion, this study sheds light on the significant role of stevioside in oral cancer. The observed inhibition of KB cell proliferation and its pronounced impact on EMT-related gene expression indicate the potential of stevioside as a promising therapeutic agent in the context of OSCC. The multifaceted effects of stevioside on OSCC cells present an exciting avenue for advancing our understanding of this devastating disease and the development of innovative therapeutic strategies.
