One of the main problems we face in cancer is that caused by cancer stem cells (CSC) responsible for the origin, tumor resistance, resistance to chemotherapy and metastasis.

Salinomycin is an antibiotic widely used in veterinary medicine that, in in vitro and in vivo studies, has shown excellent results against cancer stem cells, acting directly on different pathways of CSCs, such as the Wnt pathway and by inhibition of the p-glycoprotein cassette transporter / MDR, a pathway responsible for drug resistance.

Salinomycin

Several human clinical trials have verified its efficacy with magnificent results such as those cited in this article:  Salinomycin as a drug to target human cancer stem cells.
