Repurposing itraconazole as an anticancer agent.
Itraconazole, a common anti-fungal agent, has demonstrated potential anticancer activity, including reversing chemoresistance mediated by P-glycoprotein, modulating the signal transduction pathways of Hedgehog, mechanistic target of rapamycin and Wnt/β-catenin in cancer cells, inhibiting angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis, and possibly interfering with cancer-stromal cell interactions. Clinical...
متن کاملGlutamic acid as anticancer agent: An overview.
The objective of the article is to highlight various roles of glutamic acid like endogenic anticancer agent, conjugates to anticancer agents, and derivatives of glutamic acid as possible anticancer agents. Besides these emphases are given especially for two endogenous derivatives of glutamic acid such as glutamine and glutamate. Glutamine is a derivative of glutamic acid and is formed in the bo...
متن کاملHydroxamic acid as anticancer agent
Hydroxamic acids serve as a monsulfhydril bisubstrate analog inhibition of fernesyl protein transferase (FPT), the enzyme catalysing fernesylation of p21ras. Tumor necrosis factor (TFN) is specifically prevented by synthetic hydroxamic acid-based metalloproteinase inhibitors. Suberoyanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) have been identified as histone deacetylase inhibitors based on their ability to i...
متن کاملMechanistic and Pharmacological Issues of Aspirin as an Anticancer Agent
Recent findings have shown that aspirin, taken for several years, reduces the long-term risk of some cancers, particularly colorectal cancer. The result that aspirin benefit is detectable at daily low-doses (at least 75mg), the same used for the prevention of cardiovascular disease, positions the antiplatelet action of aspirin at the center of its antitumor efficacy. At low-doses given every 24...
متن کاملPotential Role of Garcinol as an Anticancer Agent
Garcinol, a polyisoprenylated benzophenone, is extracted from the rind of the fruit of Garcinia indica, a plant found extensively in tropical regions. Although the fruit has been consumed traditionally over centuries, its biological activities, specifically its anticancer potential is a result of recent scientific investigations. The anticarcinogenic properties of garcinol appear to be moderate...
