Semisynthesis and biological evaluation of novel honokiol thioethers against colon cancer cells HCT116 via inhibiting the transcription and expression of YAP protein.

Novel honokiol thioether 3k, derived from a traditional Chinese medicine, showed superior anticancer activity against colon cancer cells. Inhibits cell proliferation and induces cell death by directly inhibiting YAP protein expression. Could be a promising anticancer candidate.
