C-erbB2 p185 is a proto-oncogene product expressed in 25-30% of human invasive breast cancers that is associated with poor prognosis and resistance to endocrine therapy and chemotherapy. It is minimally expressed in normal adult tissues (M. F. Press et al., Oncogene, 5: 953-962, 1990). For this
Benzyl salicylate, benzyl benzoate and butylphenylmethylpropional (Lilial) are added to bodycare cosmetics used around the human breast. We report here that all three compounds possess oestrogenic activity in assays using the oestrogen-responsive MCF7 human breast cancer cell line. At 3 000 000-fold
KM2210 is a benzoate of an estradiol-chlorambucil conjugate with three active metabolites, KM2202, estradiol (E2) and chlorambucil (CBL). The mode of action of this compound was assessed using MCF-7 human breast tumours transplanted into nude mice. The growth of MCF-7 in nude mice was inhibited by
BACKGROUND
The multidrug efflux transporter breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is highly expressed in the blood-brain barrier (BBB), where it limits brain entry of a broad range of endogenous and exogenous substrates. Methyl is a recently discovered BCRP-selective inhibitor, which is
We investigated the effects of a benzoate of an estradiol-chlorambucil conjugate (KM2210) and chlorambucil on growth, estrogen receptor, and secretion of transforming growth factor (TGF)-alpha in the hormone-dependent human breast cancer cell line MCF-7. In the presence of 10(-10)-10(-6) M KM2210,
Six zinc(II) complexes, [Zn(OCOPh)2LR] (R = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) were synthesized by the reaction of zinc benzoate and six para-substituted 4-phenyl-terpyridine complexes and their structures were confirmed by elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H NMR and X-ray single crystal
Epidemiological evidence indicates that estrogens are one of the risk factors of breast cancer. However, there have been reports that pre-pubertal estrogen exposure is related to reduced breast cancer risk. These discrepancies made us investigate the time-point and duration of estrogen exposure. Our
We administered Bestrabucil, a benzoate ester of a complex of beta-estradiol and chlorambucil, continuously to six patients with breast cancer recurrent to local and regional lymph nodes, at a dose level of 200 mg/day. Of these six cases, one achieved CR, two PR, one MR, and two were NC. The drug
A new series of N-sec/tert-butyl 2-arylbenzimidazole derivatives was synthesised in 85-96% yields within 2-3.5 min by condensing ethyl 3-amino-4-butylamino benzoate with various substituted metabisulfite adducts of benzaldehyde under focused microwave irradiation. The benzimidazole analogues were
Female BALB/c mice were given 1 mg 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BDU) subcutaneously on days 1, 3 and 7 after birth or 5 mg estradiol benzoate (EB) 15 times weekly starting at the age of 3 months or both. Combined application of BDU and EB potentiated the carcinogenic effect of each agent on breast
Tamoxifen, a nonsteroidal antiestrogen, is used widely in the treatment of breast cancer and is undergoing evaluation as a chemopreventive agent. In this study, we investigated several long-term effects of tamoxifen in intact adult female rats following acute treatment at various dosages. The
Previous studies from this laboratory demonstrated that 2,6-bis-([3,4-dihydroxyphenyl]methylene)cyclohexanone (BDHPC) and related compounds mimic methyl p-hydroxyphenyllactate (MeHPLA) as endogenous ligands for nuclear type II [H-3]estradiol binding sites. Occupancy of type II sites by these agents
Bioassay guided fractionation of the roots of Cyathostemma argenteum using the brine shrimp resulted in the isolation of two uncommon flavanones, 2,5-dihydroxy-7-methoxy flavanone 1 and 2,5-dihydroxy-6,7-dimethoxy flavanone 2 while the stem bark yielded the related compounds 5-hydroxy-7-methoxy
