Cucurbitacin E (CuE), a potent member of triterpenoid family isolated from plants, has been confirmed as an antitumor agent by inhibiting proliferation, migration, and metastasis in diverse cancer. Cucurbitacin E nhibits OS tumor growth and invasion through inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. CuE can be considered to be a promising anticancer agent for OS. Cucurbitacin E exerts anti-inflammatory actions. It inhibited both COX enzymes with more selectivity toward COX-2. CuE has been reported to possess anti-inflammatory and anti-tumorigenic properties mediated by its action on the cellular cytoskeleton, on mitotic pathways as well as on cellular autophagy.
