lauric acid/悪性腫瘍

Coconut oil (CO) is enriched with medium chain saturated fatty acids like lauric acid (LA), capric acid and caprylic acid, which are known to have several health benefits. LA, the predominant fatty acid in CO, is reported to possess anticancer activity mediated through oxidative stress-induced

Lauric acid is a green derivate that is abundant in some seeds such as coconut oil where it represents the most relevant fatty acid. Some studies have emphasized its anticancer effect due to apoptosis induction. In addition, the lauric acid is a Phase Change Material having a melting temperature of

Cytarabine (Ara-C) has become cornerstones for the treatment of hatmatological malignancies for several decades; however, it still faces serious challenges in clinical applications due to its side effects such as hand foot syndrome (HFS) and stomatitis. Therefore, considerable researchers have

BACKGROUND Fatty acids are classified as short-chain (SCFA), medium-chain (MCFA) or long-chain and hold promise as adjunctive chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of colorectal cancer. The antineoplastic potential of MCFA remains underexplored; accordingly, we compared the MCFA lauric acid

The saturated medium-chain fatty-acid lauric acid (LA) has been associated to certain health-promoting benefits of coconut oil intake, including the improvement of the quality of life in breast cancer patients during chemotherapy. As it concerns the potential to hamper tumor growth, LA was shown to

Lauric acid diethanolamine condensate is widely used in cosmetics, shampoos, soaps, and related consumer products, to which there is extensive human exposure. Because of the lack of information about potential risks associated with long-term exposure, lauric acid diethanolamine condensate, coconut

We previously reported that, in a mouse model of mammary cancer, α-mangostin alone exhibits anti-metastatic properties. To enhance this anti-metastatic effect, we examined the efficacy of synthetic α-mangostin dilaurate (MGD), prepared by adding lauric acid to α-mangostin, in the same experimental

Inspired by the specificity of acid tumor microenvironment, we constructed a flexible charge-reversible near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence nanoprobe in response to tumor extracellular pH (pHe) for effective tumor-specific imaging. The nanoprobe consists of an NIR-emitted CuInS2/ZnS quantum dot (CIS/ZS

BACKGROUND Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in the world, and the most frequent cancer among women. Moreover, there are factors that influence the risk for breast cancer including the age, genetic and endocrine factors, and lifestyle. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the consumption of fatty

Transgenic rodent models have emerged as potentially useful tools in the assessment of drug and chemical safety. The transgenic Tg.AC mouse carries an inducible v-Ha-ras oncogene that imparts the characteristic of genetically initiated skin to these animals. The induction of epidermal papillomas in

Selenite, one of the inorganic forms of selenium, is emerging as an attractive chemotherapeutic agent owing to its selectivity in eradicating cancer cells. Here we demonstrate a new formulation of nanomedicine based on selenous acid, which is mixed with lauric acid (a phase-change material with a

Despite recent advancements in medicine, lung cancer still lacks an effective therapy. In the present study we have decided to combine superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) with solid lipid microparticles to develop novel, stimuli-sensitive drug carriers that increase the

Objective: To design and synthesize folate-modified pH-responsive chitosan-based nanomicelles and investigate the in vitro anti-tumor activity of the drug-loaded micelles. Methods:
