Elevated level of nuclear protein kinase C in multidrug-resistant MCF-7 human breast carcinoma cells.
Previous studies have demonstrated elevated levels of protein kinase C (PKC) activity in multidrug-resistant human breast carcinoma MCF-7/ADR cells compared to control drug-sensitive MCF-7/WT cells (R.L. Fine, J. Patel, and B.A. Chabner, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 85:582-586, 1988). In our present studies, immunohistochemical localization analysis using a polyclonal PKC antibody recognizing th...
متن کاملNano packaged Tamoxifen and Curcumin; effective formulation against sensitive and resistant MCF-7 cells
Tamoxifen is routinely used for treatment of Estrogen-positive breast carcinoma. Approximately, 50% of patients with metastatic cancer will develop resistance to Tamoxifen. In this research, Tamoxifen was combined with the anti-cancer compound Curcumin. Diblock nanopolymer was used to package the new formulation of Curcumin and Tamoxifen. Anti-cancer efficacy of the obtained compound was evalua...

متن کاملmiR-137 restoration sensitizes multidrug-resistant MCF-7/ADM cells to anticancer agents by targeting YB-1.
Multidrug resistance (MDR) to chemotherapeutic agents is a major obstacle to successful treatment in breast cancer patients. The aims of this study were to investigate whether miR-137 was involved in the regulation of MDR, and to explore the mechanism of miR-137 on the sensitivity of MCF-7/ADM cells. miR-137 was downregulated in MCF-7/ADM cells, and its expression was found to inversely correla...
متن کاملMultidrug-resistant MCF-7 Human Breast Cancer Cells: Action of Gossypol and Rhodamine 123 on Wild Type and Updated Version
The action of gossypol, a polyphenolic bisnaphthalene aldehyde, on a number of drug-sensitive and multidrug-resistant cell lines, in particular MCF-7 WT and MCF-7 ADR cells, was studied and compared to the effects of rhodamine 123. " P nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of cells exposed to low concentrations of gossypol exhibited decreased levels of ATP, markedly increased levels of pyridine nu...
