A team of researchers from Chung Shan Medical University in Taiwan examined whether the extracts of black nightshade plant (Solanum nigrum L.) could inhibit tumor growth. The research team published their findings in The American Journal of Chinese Medicine.
In conclusion, the findings of the study indicated that black nightshade extracts inhibited tumor growth and angiogenesis by downregulating the AKT/mTOR pathway in HUVECs and HepG2 cells.
