Effects of anti-tumor necrosis factor agents for familial mediterranean fever patients with chronic arthritis and/or sacroiliitis who were resistant to colchicine treatment.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Effectiveness of anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agents in colchicine-resistant familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) patients has attracted attention in recent years. OBJECTIVE We analyzed the effect of anti-TNF agents on clinical findings of colchicine-resistant FMF patients with

Effects of colchicine on the induction of ornithine decarboxylase and its gene expression by the phorbol ester tumour promoter.

Only registered users can translate articles

The activity and gene expression of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC, an indicator of tumour promotion) were induced by the phorbol ester tumour promoter, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), in mouse skin. In the present study, the effect of colchicine, a microtubule-disrupting agent, on ODC

OBJECTIVE

Colchicine, extracted from plants of the genus Colchicum, is a commonly prescribed drug for inflammatory diseases. It has been shown that colchicine affected various physiological responses in different models. However, the effect of colchicine on cytosolic free

Preparation and in-vivo evaluation of (188)Re(CO)(3)-colchicine complex for use as tumor-targeting agent.

The Re(I)-tricarbonyl synthon, [(188)Re(H(2)O)(3)(CO)(3)](+), was prepared by using carbon monoxide gas and amine-borane as the reducing agent. Colchicine, a naturally occurring cytotoxic alkaloid, was derivatized to iminodiacetic acid, the required array for the tridentate ligand system for

In vivo uptake of carbon-14-colchicine for identification of tumor multidrug resistance.

A major limitation in the treatment of cancer with natural product chemotherapeutic agents is the development of multidrug resistance (MDR). Multidrug resistance is attributed to enhanced expression of the multidrug resistance gene MDR1. Colchicine (CHC) is known to be one of the MDR drugs. We have

Successful treatment with anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF)-alpha of proteinuria in a patient with familial mediterranean fever (FMF) resistant to colchicine: anti-TNF drugs and FMF.

Familial mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory disease characterized by recurrent attacks of fever, peritonitis, pleuritis, and genetically by autosomal recessive inheritance. The major renal involvement in FMF is the occurrence of amyloidosis that can be prevented by a daily regimen of

Involvement of p53-dependent apoptosis signal in antitumor effect of Colchicine on human papilloma virus (HPV)‑positive human cervical cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Colchicine, a plant-derived alkaloid with relatively low toxicity on normal human epidermal keratinocytes (HEKn), has selective inhibitory effect on the growth of CaSki (HPV16‑positive) and HeLa (HPV18‑positive) human cervical cancer cell lines via the induction of apoptosis. Colchicine (2.5, 5.0

Attenuation of Colchicine Toxicity in Drug-resistant Cancer Cells by Co-treatment with Anti-malarial Drugs.

Colchicine (COL) is a well-known and potent microtubule targeting anticancer agent. The purpose of our study was to identify conditions that increase sensitization of COL-resistant cancer cells that overexpress P-glycoprotein (P-gp). The anti-malarial drugs chloroquine (CHL), mefloquine (MEF) and

A novel microtubule depolymerizing colchicine analogue triggers apoptosis and autophagy in HCT-116 colon cancer cells.

Colchicine is a tubulin-binding natural product isolated from Colchicum autumnale. Here we report the in vitro anticancer activity of C-ring modified semi-synthetic derivative of colchicine; N-[(7S)-1,2,3-trimethoxy-9-oxo-10-(4-phenyl-piperidin-1-yl)-5,6,7,9 tetrahydrobenzo[a]heptalen-7-yl]acetamide

A novel colchicine-based microtubule inhibitor exhibits potent antitumor activity by inducing mitochondrial mediated apoptosis in MIA PaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cells.

Colchicine, an antimitotic alkaloid isolated from Colchicum autumnale, is a classical drug for treatment of gout and familial Mediterranean fever. It causes antiproliferative effects through the inhibition of microtubule formation, which leads to mitotic arrest and cell death by apoptosis. Here, we

Colchicine semisynthetics: chemotherapeutics for cancer?

Only registered users can translate articles

Nitrogen-containing bioactive alkaloids of plant origin play a significant role in human health and medicine. Several semisynthetic antimitotic alkaloids are successful in anticancer drug development. Gloriosa superba biosynthesizes substantial quantities of colchicine, a bioactive molecule for gout

Semisynthetic aurones inhibit tubulin polymerization at the colchicine-binding site and repress PC-3 tumor xenografts in nude mice and myc-induced T-ALL in zebrafish.

Structure-activity relationships (SAR) in the aurone pharmacophore identified heterocyclic variants of the (Z)-2-benzylidene-6-hydroxybenzofuran-3(2H)-one scaffold that possessed low nanomolar in vitro potency in cell proliferation assays using various cancer cell lines, in vivo potency in prostate

The Cellular Uptake and Apoptotic Efficiency of Colchicine is Correlated with Down-regulation of MMP-9 mRNA Expression in SW480 Colon Cancer Cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Colchicine, a tricyclic alkaloid, is commonly used in treatment due to its anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effects. Beside its toxicity at high doses, colchicine is reported for its potential anticancer effects at lower concentrations. The present study aimed to evaluate the

NMK-BH2, a novel microtubule-depolymerising bis (indolyl)-hydrazide-hydrazone, induces apoptotic and autophagic cell death in cervical cancer cells by binding to tubulin at colchicine - site

Background: Microtubules, the key components of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton and mitotic spindle, are one of the most sought-after targets for cancer chemotherapy, especially due to their indispensible role in mitosis. Cervical cancer is a prevalent malignancy among

Anti-cancer mechanisms of clinically acceptable colchicine concentrations on hepatocellular carcinoma.
