Ursolic acid (UA) has been reported to possess anticancer activities. Although some of the anticancer activities of UA have been explained by its apoptosis-inducing properties, the mechanisms underlying its anticancer actions are largely unknown. We have found that UA-activated autophagy

The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-Akt (PI3K-Akt) pathway and the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway are important in the development and proliferation of various human cancers. It has been found recently that ursolic acid treatment affects growth and apoptosis in cancer cells.
Here we studied the cellular mechanisms of ursolic acid's anti-bladder cancer ability by focusing on endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) signaling. We show that ursolic acid induces a significant ER stress response in cultured human bladder cancer T24 cells. ER
