Anticancer effect and apoptosis induction by quercetin in the human lung cancer cell line A-549.
The aim of the present study was to investigate the anticancer effect of quercetin (QC) in the human lung cancer cell line A-549 and further study the mechanism of apoptosis induction by QC. Low differentiation potential A-549 human lung cancer cells were treated with QC at different doses and for different times, and the growth inhibitory rates were detected by MTT assay. Apoptosis induced by ...
متن کاملA study on the targeting of ceramide metabolism by (-)-epicatechin gallate, catechin and quercetin in A-549 lung cancer cell line
Catechin, epicatechin gallate (ECG) and quercetin, as bioactive flavonoids, have been shown to possess anticarcinogenic effects. Ceramide plays an important role in killing tumor cells. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to clarify the involvement of these compounds in ceramide metabolism in A549 cancerous cell line. Spectrophotometer, cell culture and HPLC methods were used. Cell viability...
متن کاملInduction of Apoptosis and Non-Apoptosis in Human Breast Cancer Cell Line (MCF-7) by Cisplatin and Caffeine
Background: Molecular targeted therapy by different cell death inducers are recently considered in cancer therapy. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of cisplatin and inositol trisphosphate kinase inhibitor (caffeine) on human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7). The pattern of cell death in MCF-7 cells following the exposure to cisplatin and caffeine in individual and combination form...
متن کاملQuercetin induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in CD133+ cancer stem cells of human colorectal HT29 cancer cell line and enhances anticancer effects of doxorubicin
Objective(s):The colorectal cancer stem cells (CSCs) with the CD133+ phenotype are a rare fraction of cancer cells with the ability of self-renewal, unlimited proliferation and resistance to treatment. Quercetin has anticancer effects with the advantage of exhibiting low side effects. Therefore, we evaluated the anticancer effects of quercetin and doxorubicin (Dox) in HT29 cancer cells and its ...
متن کاملEffect of citric acid on Bioavailability and apoptosis induction in human colorectal Adenocarcinoma cell line (HT29)
Background and Aim: Colorectal adenocarcinoma is one of the common causes of death due to weak response to common therapies. In this study, the effect of citric acid on bioavailability and apoptosis of the human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line (HT29) was examined. Citric acid is a naturally organic acid that commonly found in citrus and is considered as a physiological inhibitor of enzymes ...
