Patients with unresectable advanced carcinoma of the uterine cervix are usually treated with chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy. In the present study, the optimal administration protocol for etoposide in chemotherapy and chemoradiotherapy for advanced cervical cancer patients was investigated in vitro using the radio-sensitive and anticancer drug-sensitive human cervical squamous cell carcinoma ...

Infection with cagA-positive Helicobacter pylori is associated with a higher risk of gastric cancer. The cagA gene product, CagA, is translocated into gastric epithelial cells and perturbs host cellular biological functions. Etoposide, a topoisomerase II inhibitor widely used to couple DNA damage to apoptosis, is a common cytotoxic agent used for advanced gastric cancer. We investigate the effe...

Dexrazoxane (ICRF-187) is a catalytic inhibitor of the nuclear enzyme DNA topoisomerase II (topo II). It protects cells against topo II poisons, such as etoposide and teniposide, by hindering the DNA cleavage reaction of the target enzyme. We have previously shown that this antagonism also extends to an in vivo model. Thus, ICRF-187 protected mice against supralethal doses of etoposide and amsa...

• A combination of mathematical and in vivo models revealed the role vitronectin extracellular matrix-tumor cell interactions high-risk neuroblastoma patients. Vitronectin its ligands can be potential therapeutic targets therapy. Nanoencapsulation etoposide increases efficacy lines. synergistic effect is observed high risk-neuroblastoma cells when cilengitide combined with etoposide/etoposide n...

Neuroblastoma is a disease that observed in early childhood, originating from the sympathetic nervous system and very difficult to treat. Etoposide, topoisomerase 2 inhibitor, one of agents used cancer treatment. Galangin puerarin are plant-based antioxidants with anticancer properties. Since apoptosis induction methods treatment, evaluation mRNA expression levels apoptosis-related genes aimed ...

PURPOSE Glioblastoma (GBM) inevitably recurs despite surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. A subpopulation of tumor cells, GBM stem cells (GSC), has been implicated in this recurrence. The chemotherapeutic agent etoposide is generally reserved for treating recurrent tumors; however, its effectiveness is limited due to acute and cumulative toxicities to normal tissues. We investigate a novel com...

Human glioblastomas that express Fas/CD95 receptor are highly resistant to conventional brain tumour therapies. The aim of this study is to evaluate anti-tumour properties of a combination of Fas ligand (FasL) plus etoposide with or without dexamethasone on intracerebral experimental glioblastomas. The human Fas-expressing glioblastoma cell line, U-87 MG, was firstly studied in vitro for apopto...

To develop a nontoxic system for targeting therapy, a new highly ordered hierarchical mesoporous calcium carbonate nanospheres (CCNSs) as small drug carriers has been synthesized by a mild and facile binary solvent approach under the normal temperature and pressure. The hierarchical structure by multistage self-assembled strategy was confirmed by TEM and SEM, and a possible formation process wa...
