The comparison of the effect of different inhibitors on aromatase enzyme effective in the breast cancer by molecular docking method
Background: Aromatase is an enzyme that plays an important role in the development of estrogen-positive breast cancer. Estrogens are essential in human and mainly in women because of their role in sexual development and reproduction. Adverse effects of some aromatase inhibitors increase the need to discover new inhibitors with higher selectivity, lower toxicity and improved potency. In this stu...
متن کاملThe potential of aromatase inhibitors in breast cancer prevention.
Substantial evidence supports the concept that estrogens cause breast cancer in animals and in women but the precise mechanism is unknown. The most commonly held theory is that estrogens stimulate proliferation of breast cells and thus statistically increase the chances for genetic mutations which could result in cancer. Another theory is that estrogen metabolism generates oxygen-free radicals ...
متن کاملReasons for nonadherence to tamoxifen and aromatase inhibitors for the treatment of breast cancer: a literature review.
Despite improved breast cancer survival rates with the use of tamoxifen and aromatase inhibitors, patients remain at risk for cancer recurrence and mortality because of nonadherence to medication. The objective of this review was to identify factors associated with nonadherence among patients with breast cancer. Electronic databases were searched for studies, and potentially relevant studies we...
متن کاملRisks versus benefits in the clinical application of aromatase inhibitors.
Third-generation aromatase inhibitors are able to reduce circulating plasma estrogen concentrations in postmenopausal women to below detectable limits and significantly inhibit aromatase, the enzyme responsible for estrogen synthesis, in normal breast tissue and breast tumors. Their role in the treatment of advanced breast cancer is well established and their use in adjuvant therapy is currentl...
متن کاملDesign, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of4-(Imidazolylmethyl)-2-(4-methylsulfonyl phenyl)-Quinoline Derivatives as Selective COX-2 Inhibitors and In-vitro Anti-breast Cancer Agents
A new group of 4-(Imidazolylmethyl) quinoline derivatives possessing a methylsulfonyl COX-2 pharmacophore at the para position of the C-2 phenyl ring were designed and synthesized as selective COX-2 inhibitors and in-vitro anti breast cancer agents. In-vitro COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition studies showed that all the compounds were potent and selective inhibitors of the COX-2 isozyme with IC50 value...
