However, this process may create unfavorable microenvironments, such as increased acidity, leading to cytotoxicity. Our previous study demonstrated that arecoline induces anoikis of HA22T/VGH hepatoma cells. The present study aimed to examine if arecoline induced anoikis is related to the glycolytic pathway and explore the underlying mechanisms. %K Arecoline %K Glycolysis %K ROS %K Calcium ion %K Anoikis. %U http://www.jcancer.org/v08p3173.htm
