Runaway ROS as a selective anticancer strategy.
The majority of cancer therapies target macromolecules important for general cell survival, such as DNA, topoisomerase, and tubulin (e.g. , cisplatin, doxorubicin, and paclitaxel, respectively). While these agents are effective at killing many types of cancer cells, they also affect rapidly dividing normal cells, such as the intestinal lining and bone marrow, resulting in dose limiting toxiciti...
متن کاملAu Nanoparticle Loaded with 6-Thioguanine Anticancer Drug as a New Strategy for Drug Delivery
In this study we suggested a new strategy for drug delivery of 6-thioguanine (6-TG) as a cancer drug by loading of this thiolic drug at a surface of Au nanoparticles. For this goal, we synthesized Au nanoparticle (Au/NPs) by reduction of tetrachloroauric (III) acid solutions by sodium borohydride and characterized Au/NPs by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), dynamic light scattering (DLS), Ultravi...

متن کاملEnhancing proteotoxic stress as an anticancer strategy
Commentary on: Neznanov N, Komarov AP, Neznanova L, Stanhope-Baker P, Gudkov AV. Proteotoxic stress targeted therapy (PSTT): induction of protein misfolding enhances the antitumor effect of the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib. Transformed cells are known to differ from their normal counterparts in a wide variety of ways, including their increased reliance on aerobic glycolysis, defects in DNA d...
متن کاملSelective killing of cancer cells by beta -lapachone: direct checkpoint activation as a strategy against cancer.
Most chemotherapeutic drugs kill cancer cells by indirectly activating checkpoint-mediated apoptosis after creating nonselective damage to DNA or microtubules, which accounts for their toxicity toward normal cells. We seek to target cancer cells by directly activating checkpoint regulators without creating such damage. Here, we show that beta-lapachone selectively induces apoptosis in cancer ce...
