Superior efficacy of the antifungal agent ciclopirox olamine over gemcitabine in pancreatic cancer models
Ciclopirox olamine (CPX) is an antifungal agent that has recently demonstrated promising anti-neoplastic activity against hematologic and solid tumors. Here, we evaluated CPX compared with gemcitabine alone as well as their combination in human pancreatic cancer cell lines; BxPC-3, Panc-1, and MIA PaCa-2 and in humanized xenograft mouse models. We also examined the preclinical pharmacodynamic a...
متن کاملChelation of intracellular iron with the antifungal agent ciclopirox olamine induces cell death in leukemia and myeloma cells.
Off-patent drugs with previously unrecognized anticancer activity could be rapidly repurposed for this new indication. To identify such compounds, we conducted 2 independent cell-based chemical screens and identified the antimicrobial ciclopirox olamine (CPX) in both screens. CPX decreased cell growth and viability of malignant leukemia, myeloma, and solid tumor cell lines as well as primary AM...
متن کاملTargeting the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway with the antifungal agent ciclopirox olamine in a murine myeloma model.
BACKGROUND Aberrant activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling promotes the development of several types of cancer. Recently, it has been demonstrated that Wnt pathway is also activated in myeloma. Therefore, the Wnt/β-catenin signaling molecules are attractive candidates for development of targeted therapies for this disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study investigated the antitumor effect of c...
متن کاملPeganum harmala seed extract can prevent HSV-1 replication in vitro
Abstract: Peganum harmala L. (Zygophylaceae) has been used in a variety of practical applications in medical science. Our objective in the current study was to determine the effects of the seed extract on Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) replication in Vero cells. Different concentrations (100, 500, 571, 667, 800 and 1000 µg/ml) of the extract were examined. Experiments were carried ...
متن کاملD-optimal Design and Development of Microemulsion Based Transungual Drug Delivery Formulation of Ciclopirox Olamine for Treatment of Onychomycosis
The objective of the present study was to design and develop a microemulsion based transungual drug delivery formulation of ciclopirox olamine using colloidal carrier for treatment of onychomycosis. Capmul PG8 was selected as oil phase due to the high solubility of ciclopirox in it as compared to other oils and Cremophor EL and Transcutol P were used as surfactant and cosurfactant respectively....
