Icaritin, a novel FASN inhibitor, exerts anti-melanoma activities through IGF-1R/STAT3 signaling
Icaritin (IT) is a flavonoid isolated from Herba Epimedii. In this study, we evaluated the anti-melanoma activities of IT, and determined its cytotoxic mechanism. We found that IT exerted cytotoxicity to melanoma cells. Furthermore, IT induced melanoma cell apoptosis, which was accompanied with PARP cleavage. Mechanistically, IT suppressed p-STAT3 (tyr705) level in parallel with increases of p-...
متن کاملAryl hydrocarbon receptor-mediated antiestrogenic and antitumorigenic activity of diindolylmethane.
Phytochemicals such as indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and sulforaphane are components of cruciferous vegetables which exhibit antitumorigenic activity associated with altered carcinogen metabolism and detoxification. Diindolylmethane (DIM) is a major acid-catalyzed metabolite of I3C formed in the gut that binds to the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and treatment of MCF-7 human breast cancer cells wit...
متن کاملSex differences in progesterone receptor expression: a potential mechanism for estradiol-mediated sexual differentiation.
The differential exposure of males and females to testosterone (T) and its metabolite estradiol (E) contributes to the development of sex differences in the brain. However, the mechanisms by which T and E permanently alter neural development remain virtually unknown. Two regions of the rat preoptic area, the anteroventral periventricular nucleus (AVPv) and the medial preoptic nucleus (MPN), are...
متن کاملVanadate increases glucocorticoid receptor-mediated gene expression: a novel mechanism for potentiation of a steroid receptor.
Transition metal oxyanions, such as molybdate, tungstate and vandadate, have been shown to prevent in vitro hormone-induced activation of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) by blocking dissociation of the GR/heat shock protein heterocomplex. In this work, we report a novel effect of vanadate: in vivo potentiation of GR-mediated gene expression. In cells stably-transfected with complex (mouse mamm...
