P-195: Thymoquinone Increases Efficacy of Tamoxifen Induced Apoptosis in Human Breast Cancer MCF-7 Cells: In Vitro
Background: The objective of this study is to evaluate combined effect of Thymoquinone (The main active component of black seeds) with Tamoxifen drug on apoptosis of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells (Noninvasive human breast cancer cell line, estrogen receptor positive). Materials and Methods: The human breast cancer MCF- 7 cells were treated with Tamoxifen (2 μM) alone or in combination with Th...
متن کاملDichloromethane fractions of Scrophularia oxysepala extract induce apoptosis in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells.
Breast cancer is a prevalent malignancy among women, especially in developing countries. A large number of anticancer agents with herbal origins have been reported. Hence, herbals may play an essential role in prevention and treatment of cancers. We investigated cytotoxic effects of dichloromethane fractions of Scrophularia oxysepala extract on the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. The cytotoxic a...
متن کاملSilibinin Enhances Ultraviolet B-Induced Apoptosis in MCF-7 Human Breast Cancer Cells
PURPOSE Chemotherapies for breast cancer generally have strong cellular cytotoxicity and severe side effects. Thus, significant emphasis has been placed on combinations of naturally occurring chemopreventive agents. Silibinin is a major bioactive flavonolignan extracted from milk thistle with chemopreventive activity in various organs including the skin, prostate, and breast. However, the mecha...
متن کاملCapsaicin-induced apoptosis in human breast cancer MCF-7 cells through caspase-independent pathway.
Capsaicin (trans-8-methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenamide), a significant pungent ingredient in a variety of red peppers of the genus Capsicum, is a type of vanilloid. It has been shown to exert biological activities (anticarcinogenic, antimutagenic and chemopreventive) in many cancer cell lines. It was found that capsaicin induces dose-dependent growth inhibition of MCF-7 cells, which does not express...
متن کاملIsocryptotanshinone Induced Apoptosis and Activated MAPK Signaling in Human Breast Cancer MCF-7 Cells
PURPOSE Isocryptotanshinone (ICTS) is a natural bioactive product that is isolated from the roots of the widely used medical herb Salvia miltiorrhiza. However, few reports exist on the mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effects of ICTS. Here, we report that ICTS has anticancer activity and describe the mechanism underlying this effect. METHODS The antiproliferative effect of ICTS was deter...
