On the other hand, the effect of LA on the stemness potential of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells remains unexplored, and has not yet been thoroughly investigated. In this study, we examined the inhibitory activity of LA from\n                    <jats:italic>Stereocaulon alpinum<\/jats:italic>\n                    against the stemness potential of CRC cells and investigated the possible underlying mechanisms. The results demonstrated that LA did not inhibit the cell viability of CSC221 and DLD1. In addition, LA significantly decreased the spheroid formation of CSC221 and DLD1. Moreover, LA treatment suppressed cancer stem cell (CSC) markers; aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1), B\u2010cell\u2010specific Moloney leukemia virus insertion site 1 (BMI1), musashi1 (MSI1), and leucine\u2010rich repeat\u2010containing G\u2010protein coupled receptor 5 (Lgr5), along with the sonic hedgehog (Shh) and mTOR\/AKT pathways that contribute significantly to maintaining the stemness of CRC cells. Therefore, LA may be a new therapeutic approach for reducing the stemness of CRC cells.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/biof.70002","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,28]],"date-time":"2025-01-28T13:14:37Z","timestamp":1738070077000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Lobaric acid suppresses the stemness potential of colorectal cancer cells through\n                    <scp>mTOR<\/scp>\n                    \/\n                    <scp>AKT<\/scp>"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"51","author":[{"given":"Sultan","family":"Pulat","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Pharmacy, Sunchon National University  Sunchon Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jaycee Augusto Gumiran","family":"Paguiri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Korean Lichen Research Institute, Sunchon National University  Sunchon Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chathurika D.
