Solanine Induces Mitochondria-Mediated Apoptosis in Human Pancreatic Cancer Cells
Steroid alkaloids have been suggested as potential anticancer compounds. However, the underlying mechanisms of how steroid alkaloids inhibit the tumor growth are largely unknown. Here, we reported that solanine, a substance of steroid alkaloids, has a positive effect on the inhibition of pancreatic cancer cell growth in vitro and in vivo. In pancreatic cancer cells and nu/nu nude mice model, we...
متن کاملInhibitory effects of vitamin K3 on DNA polymerase and angiogenesis.
Vitamins play essential roles in cellular reactions and maintain human health. Recent studies have revealed that some vitamins including D3, B6 and K2 and their derivatives have an anti-cancer effect. As a mechanism, their inhibitory effect on cancer-related angiogenesis has been demonstrated. Vitamin K2 (menaquinones) has an anti-cancer effect in particular for hepatic cancer and inhibits angi...
متن کاملVitamin K3 Induces Apoptosis of Human Oral Cancer Cells and Reduces Metastatic Potential
Oral cancer is the most common in men and women in India, due to ethnic or geographical factors and increased addictive habits such as tobacco chewing, smoking and alcoholism Byakodi et al. (2012). Oral cancer is known to exhibit multiple primary tumor formation, a phenomenon known as ‘field cancerization’, which leads to low survival rate in patients Hsu et al. (2004). In addition to this, ora...
متن کاملMetformin induces apoptosis via a mitochondria-mediated pathway in human breast cancer cells in vitro
Breast cancer is the most commonly occurring cancer and second leading cause of mortality in women. Metformin is a widely prescribed anti-hyperglycemic drug, which is emerging as a potential cancer preventative and treatment agent. However, the mechanisms underlying the suppressive effects of metformin on cancer cell growth and the induction of cancer cell apoptosis are not fully elucidated. Th...
متن کاملCyclovirobuxine D Inhibits Cell Proliferation and Induces Mitochondria-Mediated Apoptosis in Human Gastric Cancer Cells.
Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant cancers, with high death rates, poor prognosis and limited treatment methods. Cyclovirobuxine D (CVB-D) is the main active component of the traditional Chinese medicine Buxus microphylla. In the present study, we test the effects of CVB-D on gastric cancer cells and the underlying mechanisms of action. CVB-D reduced cell viability and colony fo...
