Evofolin A
Evofolin A is a conjugated benzophenone derivative and monocyclic polyketide that exists in the heartwood of Phellodendron chinense var. glabriusculum, the herb Sida acuta, and the filamentous fungus Aspergillus oryzae. Evofolin A acts as an inducer of quinone reductase activity in cultured hepatoma cells.

Liver Cancer Modeling
Liver cancer can be classified into primary liver cancer and secondary liver cancer. Secondary liver cancer is the metastatic liver cancer. Primary liver cancer includes hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and fibrolamellar HCC, of which HCC is the most common form, accounting for approximately 90% of primary liver cancers[1]. HCC mouse models include chemical agent-induced models, transplanted tumor models, and genetic engineered models.
