We evaluated how Urtica dioica, commonly known as nettle, affects prostate cancer cells, specifically the PC3 line. Utilizing various assays, we observed that the dichloromethanolic extract significantly inhibited cell growth and induced cell death, specifically through apoptosis.
Our tests showed increased expression of caspase-3 and caspase-9 genes while lowering Bcl-2 levels, indicating a powerful apoptotic response. We also noted that the treatment led to cell cycle arrest at the G2 phase, suggesting Urtica dioica could be a promising candidate for developing new prostate cancer therapies.
