Thapsigargin is a potent, non-competitive inhibitor of the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺-ATPase (SERCA), widely used in cellular and biochemical research. By disrupting calcium homeostasis, it induces endoplasmic reticulum stress, triggering apoptosis in various cell types. Thapsigargin is a valuable tool for studying calcium signaling, cell death pathways, and cancer biology. Additionally, it has shown potential as a prodrug in targeted cancer therapies. Extracted from Thapsia garganica, it continues to play a critical role in advancing calcium-dependent physiological and pathological research.
