Dihydroartemisinin Exerts Its Anticancer Activity through Depleting Cellular Iron via Transferrin Receptor-1
Artemisinin and its main active metabolite dihydroartemisinin, clinically used antimalarial agents with low host toxicity, have recently shown potent anticancer activities in a variety of human cancer models. Although iron mediated oxidative damage is involved, the mechanisms underlying these activities remain unclear. In the current study, we found that dihydroartemisinin caused cellular iron ...
متن کاملThe Anticancer Peptide TAT-RasGAP317−326 Exerts Broad Antimicrobial Activity
Antibiotic resistance has become a major health issue. Nosocomial infections and the prevalence of resistant pathogenic bacterial strains are rising steadily. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new classes of antibiotics effective on multi-resistant nosocomial pathogenic bacteria. We have previously shown that a cell-permeable peptide derived from the p120 Ras GTPase-activating prote...
متن کاملICG-001 Exerts Potent Anticancer Activity Against Uveal Melanoma Cells
Purpose Uveal melanoma (UM) is uniformly refractory to all available systemic chemotherapies, thus creating an urgent need for novel therapeutics. In this study, we investigated the sensitivity of UM cells to ICG-001, a small molecule reported to suppress the Wnt/β-catenin-mediated transcriptional program. Methods We used a panel of UM cell lines to examine the effects of ICG-001 on cellular ...
متن کاملCuraxin CBL0137 eradicates drug resistant cancer stem cells and potentiates efficacy of gemcitabine in preclinical models of pancreatic cancer
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) continues to be one of the deadliest cancers due to the absence of effective treatment. Curaxins are a class of small molecules with anti-cancer activity demonstrated in different models of cancer in mice. The lead curaxin compound, CBL0137, recently entered Phase I clinical trials. Curaxins modulate several important signaling pathways involved in the pat...
متن کاملO-7: Insulin Exerts a Prosurvival Effect on Human Spermatozoa via Mechanisms That Involve the Stimulation of Akt Phosphorylation
Background: The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of Insulin (INS) on human sperm function, in light of a recent proteomic analysis indicating that these cells express the INS receptor (INSR). Materials and Methods: We used Western blot and Immunocytochemical analyses. Results: Immunocytochemical analyses confirmed the presence of INSR in human spermatozoa and localized this recep...
