trolox/유방암

Bone is a preferred site of metastasis from breast cancer, and increased osteoclast activity is implicated in breast cancer outgrowth in the bone microenvironment. Our previous observation of an anti-osteoclastic activity of Trolox, a vitamin E analog, led us to investigate whether Trolox inhibits

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of 50% ethyl alcohol (EtOH) extracts from Danzhi Xiaoyao Pill (, DXP) on the proliferation of MCF-7 human breast cancer cells and potential mechanisms. METHODS ATP-Lite assay was performed to test the proliferation of the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line; and

The aim of the present work was to evaluate the phenolic profile of the 'Brava' extra virgin olive oil and assess its potential as a "natural adjuvant" in combination with chemotherapy treatment. The total phenol content of the phenolic extracts was 764 mg gallic acid equivalents/kg and the total

Although arsenic trioxide (As(2)O(3)) is an effective therapy in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), its use in other malignancies is limited by the toxicity of concentrations required to induce apoptosis in non-APL tumor cells. We looked for agents that would synergize with As(2)O(3) to induce

Arsenic trioxide (As2O3) is an effective therapy in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), but its use in other malignancies is limited by the higher concentrations required to induce apoptosis. We have reported that trolox, an analogue of alpha-tocopherol, increases As2O3-mediated apoptosis in a

Pomegranate extract (PE) inhibits the proliferation of breast cancer cells and stimulates apoptosis in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. While PE is a potent antioxidant, the present studies were conducted to examine the mechanisms of action of PE beyond antioxidation by studying cellular and molecular

The role of antioxidant in cancer cell proliferation is still controversial. This study aimed to explore the effects of antioxidant vitamin E on the proliferation of breast cancer cells and the possible underlying mechanisms. Orthotopic breast cancer model was established by inoculating MCF7 cells

We performed a case control study to assess the association between serum micronutrient and antioxidant levels and the risk of breast cancer. Newly diagnosed breast cancer cases were recruited before any treatment and matched with controls randomly selected from the electoral roll. Blood samples

Ephedra alata Decne. belongs to the Ephedraceae family. It is a species of Ephedra that grows mostly in the desert. Today, the main importance of Ephedra species in the medical field is due to the presence of the alkaloids derived from phenyl-alanine, which act on the

BACKGROUND Ardisia crispa Thunb. D.C is used mostly in some parts of the Asian region by traditional practitioners to treat certain diseases associated with oxidative stress and inflammation including cancer and rheumatism. In Malaysia, it is popularly known as 'Mata Ayam' and local traditional

Cancer cells exhibit an abnormal amino acid metabolism and a dependence on specific amino acids, which might provide potential targets for treating cancer patients. In this study, we demonstrated that human triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells were highly susceptible to cystine starvation. We

2-Methoxyestradiol (2ME), a 17β-estradiol metabolite, exerts anticancer properties in vitro and in vivo. To address 2ME's low bioavailability, research led to the in silico design of sulphamoylated 2ME analogues. However, the role of oxidative stress induced in the activity exerted by sulphamoylated

This study aims at developing an optimised nanostructured lipid carrier (NLC) of lycopene for efficient absorption following oral administration. The optimised formulation showed an average particle size of 121.9 ± 3.66 nm, polydispersity index (PDI) 0.370 ± 0.97 and zeta potential -29.0 ± 0.83 mV.

Analogs of alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E; compounds 3-9) have been synthesized and tested for their antiproliferative activity using the human breast cancer cell line, MCF7. Compounds 6-9 were synthesized from a common symthom, rac-Trolox (14) and are soluble/miscible at physiological pH. Compounds 4,

Oxidative stress is thought to be an important factor in the onset, progression and recurrence of cancer. In order to investigate how it is influenced by physical activity, we measured oxidative stress and antioxidative capacity (aoC) in 12 women with breast cancer and 6 men with prostate cancer,
