Inhibiting autophagy increases epirubicin's cytotoxicity in breast cancer cells
Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and endocrinotherapy are documented to induce autophagy among breast cancer cells, but the role of autophagy in this disease has been attributed as cytoprotective as well as tumor-suppressing. Thus we studied MDA-MB-231 and SK-BR-3 breast cancer cell lines treated with epirubicin (EPI) to assess autophagy and apoptosis. We found out that EPI induced apoptosis and aut...
متن کاملA multifunctional lipid nanoparticle for co-delivery of paclitaxel and curcumin for targeted delivery and enhanced cytotoxicity in multidrug resistant breast cancer cells
The objective of the work was to develop a multifunctional nanomedicine based on a folate-conjugated lipid nanoparticles loaded with paclitaxel and curcumin. The novel system combines therapeutic advantageous of efficient targeted delivery via folate and timed-release of curcumin and paclitaxel via 2-hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin, thereby overcoming multidrug resistance in breast cancer cells (M...
متن کاملSulfoximine in Multidrug-resistant Human Breast Tumor Cells Potentiation of Doxorubicin Cytotoxicity by Buthionine
Resistance to antineoplastic drugs is a major problem in the clinical management of cancer. Previous studies have demonstrated that the cytotoxicity of certain anticancer drugs is increased by lowering the glutathione (GSH) levels with buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), a specific inhibitor of •¿ v-glutamylcysteine synthetase. In this study we report that the resistance to doxorubicin, an anthracy...
متن کاملMultidrug-resistant breast cancer: current perspectives
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide, and resistance to the current therapeutics, often concurrently, is an increasing clinical challenge. By understanding the molecular mechanisms behind multidrug-resistant breast cancer, new treatments may be developed. Here we review the recent advances in this understanding, emphasizing the common mechanisms underlying resistance to bo...
متن کاملPotentiation of doxorubicin cytotoxicity by buthionine sulfoximine in multidrug-resistant human breast tumor cells.
Resistance to antineoplastic drugs is a major problem in the clinical management of cancer. Previous studies have demonstrated that the cytotoxicity of certain anticancer drugs is increased by lowering the glutathione (GSH) levels with buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), a specific inhibitor of gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase. In this study we report that the resistance to doxorubicin, an anthracyc...
