Screening Warrior Hops for inhibitors of cancer cell metabolism
Abstract
The purpose of this project is to examine the effects of components of Warrior Hops on cancer cell metabolism to better understand the mechanism of infection for SARSCoV-2. In h293 cells (human embryonic kidney cells that metabolically mimic cancer cells), several fractions have been obtained that showed mitochondrial inhibition and the inhibition of ATP production in cells similarly to hydroxychloroquine, which acts as the positive control. This project is still in progress and will provide a better understanding of the mechanism of infection for COVID-19 on the cellular level.
