Drugs that influence the role of mitophagy in various tumors

Drug Origin Mechanism of action Types of cancer
Dihydroergotamine tartrate (DHE) Ergot alkaloid derivative PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy, increased ROS production, apoptosis induction Lung cancer
Ketonazole Antifungal drug PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy, COX-2 downregulation, apoptosis induction HCC
Sorafenib Multi-kinase inhibitor PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy, ETC complexes II and III inhibition, apoptosis induction Renal cancer, liver cancer
AT101 BH3-mimetic Mitophagic cell death Glioma cells
Liensinine Inhibitor of autophagy and mitophagy Increases the sensitivity of cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs Breast cancer
Melatonin Hormone Downregulation of JNK kinase and Parkin, apoptosis induction Cervical cancer
Mdivi-1 Inhibitor of mitophagy Enhanced the efficacy of chemotherapeutic drugs Hepatic carcinoma
