Abstract
Apoptosis is a physiological process of programmed cell death regulated by pro- and anti-apoptotic proteins, essential for normal embryonic development, genome integrity, immune system function, and tissue homeostasis. Dysregulation of the apoptotic process allows tumor cells to survive and proliferate, maintaining the tumor microenvironment. Consequently, research targeting members of th…

Abstract
The marine environment is an exceptional warehouse for new bioactive natural products with unique structural and chemical characteristics, including those with anticancer properties. A major obstacle in pharmacology is the elucidation of the pharmacological target. Using a directed target approach at targets that have relevance for cancer is interesting in order to reduce costs and maximi…
