Core Tip The combination of quercetin and triptolide demonstrates enhanced antitumor effects by reducing tumor growth and oxidative stress while modulating the protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin signaling pathway. Plant-derived bioactive compounds and herbal formulations have shown promise in hepatocellular carcinoma therapy, particularly in combination regimens that exert anticancer and anti-inflammatory effects through modulation of the tumor microenvironment. Quercetin may also inhibit triptolide-induced liver injury and carcinogenesis by regulating the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin pathway, which is associated with cell proliferation.
