Curcumin Chemosensitizes 5-Fluorouracil Resistant MMR-Deficient Human Colon Cancer Cells in High Density Cultures
OBJECTIVE Treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a clinical challenge, as more than 15% of patients are resistant to 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU)-based chemotherapeutic regimens, and tumor recurrence rates can be as high as 50-60%. Cancer stem cells (CSC) are capable of surviving conventional chemotherapies that permits regeneration of original tumors. Therefore, we investigated the effectivenes...
متن کاملPterostilbine, an active component of blueberries, sensitizes colon cancer cells to 5-fluorouracil cytotoxicity
Although colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is the first line of therapy for this debilitating disease, treatment effectiveness is often hampered by the development of drug resistance and toxicity at high doses. ER-β can play an important role in CRC development and possibly in its response to therapy. Pterostilbene (PT) possesses antioxidant and anticancer effects tha...
متن کاملReduced Autophagy in 5-Fluorouracil Resistant Colon Cancer Cells
We investigated the role of autophagy in SNUC5/5-FUR, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) resistant SNUC5 colon cancer cells. SNUC5/5- FUR cells exhibited low level of autophagy, as determined by light microscopy, confocal microscopy, and flow cytometry following acridine orange staining, and the decreased level of GFP-LC3 puncta. In addition, expression of critical autophagic proteins such as Atg5, Beclin-1...
متن کاملSchedule-dependent cytotoxicity of methotrexate and 5-fluorouracil in human colon and breast tumor cell lines.
The effect of sequential methotrexate and 5-fluorouracil on the clonal growth of the human colon adenocarcinoma cell, HCT-8, and the hormone-dependent human breast carcinoma cell, 47-DN, was examined. In both cell lines, when 5-fluorouracil was given during the last 6 h of a 24 h methotrexate exposure period, there was marked synergistic inhibition of clonal growth. Shorter intervals or the rev...
متن کاملIn-vitro Characterization and Cytotoxicity Analysis of 5- Fluorouracil loaded Chitosan Microspheres for Targeting Colon Cancer
The objectives of the present investigation were to prepare the 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) loaded chitosan microspheres for colon targeting and its in vitro cytotoxicity analysis on HT-29 human colon cancer cell lines. Chitosan microspheres prepared by the emulsion polymerization method were analyzed for morphology, mean particle size, drug polymer interaction, entrapment efficiency, in vitro drug r...
