Arginine deiminase as a novel therapy for prostate cancer induces autophagy and caspase-independent apoptosis.
Arginine deprivation as an anticancer therapy has historically been met with limited success. The development of pegylated arginine deiminase (ADI-PEG20) has renewed interest in arginine deprivation for the treatment of some cancers. The efficacy of ADI-PEG20 is directly correlated with argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS) deficiency. CWR22Rv1 prostate cancer cells do not express ASS, the rate-li...
متن کاملCurcumin induces apoptosis and protective autophagy in castration-resistant prostate cancer cells through iron chelation
BACKGROUND Curcumin induces apoptosis and autophagy in different cancer cells. Moreover, chemical and biological experiments have evidenced that curcumin is a biologically active iron chelator and induces cytotoxicity through iron chelation. We thus hypothesized that curcumin may induce apoptosis and autophagy in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) cells through its iron-chelating prope...
متن کاملPancratistatin induces apoptosis and autophagy in metastatic prostate cancer cells.
The Amaryllidaceae alkaloid pancratistatin has been proven to selectively induce apoptotic cell death in a variety of human cancer cells with an insignificant effect on non-cancerous cells. In this study we report, for the first time, the effects of pancratistatin (PST) on models of metastatic prostate cancer. The effects of pancratistatin on prostate cancer DU145 and LNCaP cell lines was asses...
متن کاملOridonin Up-regulates Expression of P21 and Induces Autophagy and Apoptosis in Human Prostate Cancer Cells
BACKGROUND Oridonin (ORI) could inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis in various cancer cell lines. However, the mechanism is not fully understood. METHODS Human prostate cancer (HPC) cells were cultured in vitro and cell viability was detected by the CCK-8 assay. The ultrastructure changes were observed under transmission electron microscope (TEM). Chemical staining with acridine or...
متن کاملBenzyl isothiocyanate induces reactive oxygen species-initiated autophagy and apoptosis in human prostate cancer cells
Benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) in cruciferous plants, which are part of the human diet, has been shown to induce apoptosis in various types of cancer. In this study, we show that BITC effectively suppresses the growth of cultured human prostate cancer cells (CRW-22Rv1 and PC3) by causing mitochondrial membrane potential loss, caspase 3/7 activation and DNA fragmentation. Furthermore, BITC induces...
