Anti-tumor effect and mechanism of the total biflavonoid extract from S doederleinii on human cervical cancer cells in vitro and in vivo.

SDTBE, a biflavonoid extract from Hieron, inhibits cervical cancer cell proliferation, induces apoptosis, autophagy, and cell cycle arrest, and suppresses tumor growth in mice. The mechanism involves activating the Caspase-dependent mitochondrial apoptosis pathway.
