Cervical cancer (CC) is a malignant tumor of the female reproductive system that typically occurs in cervical cells and has high incidence and mortality rates, strong metastatic ability, and poor prognosis. Asiatic acid (AA) exhibits anti-inflammatory, anti-depressant, and anti-tumor effects. However, the molecular targets and mechanisms underlying AA-mediated inhibition of CC metastasis remain unclear. AA affects the proliferation, metastasis, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process of CC cell lines. MTT experiments verified that AA inhibited the proliferation ability of CC cells, and the effect of AA on the lateral and longitudinal migration ability of CC was evaluated through wound healing and Transwell assays. Western blotting was used to explore whether AA inhibits EMT process in HeLa and C33a cells. Currently, targeting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway as a strategy for cancer treatment remains an evolving field. However, the molecular mechanism by which AA inhibits CC via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway remains unclear and requires further investigation.
