Growth Inhibition of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Huh7 Cells by Lactobacillus casei Extract
PURPOSE Lactobacillus casei (L. casei) is known to exert anti-proliferation effects on many types of cancer cells. However, the effect of L. casei on liver cancer has not been reported. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to determine the anti-cancer effect of L. casei extract on Huh7 cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS L. casei ATCC393 extract was prepared and purified. After the treatment of L....
متن کاملSimvastatin induces growth inhibition and apoptosis in HepG2 and Huh7 hepatocellular carcinoma cells via upregulation of Notch1 expression.
Statins, cholesterol‑lowering drugs, are one of the most commonly prescribed types of medications. Previous studies have suggested that simvastatin may inhibit the cell function and tumor growth of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying simvastatin‑induced apoptosis in HCC cells remains to be elucidated. The aim of the present study was to investigate...
متن کاملCD133+EpCAM+ Phenotype Possesses More Characteristics of Tumor Initiating Cells in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Huh7 Cells
BACKGROUND EpCAM or CD133 has been used as the tumor initiating cells (TICs) marker in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We investigated whether cells expressing with both EpCAM and CD133 surface marker were more representative for TICs in hepatocellular carcinoma Huh7 cells. METHODS Four different phenotypes of CD133(+)EpCAM(+), CD133(+)EpCAM(-), CD133(-)EpCAM(+) and CD133(-)EpCAM(-) in Huh7 c...
متن کاملInhibition of hepatocellular carcinoma growth by blockade of glycosphingolipid synthesis
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most frequent cancers. In vitro studies suggest that growth and response to therapy of human carcinomas may depend on glycosphingolipid (GSL) expression. Glucosylceramide synthase (GCS), encoded by the gene Ugcg, is the basic enzyme required for the synthesis of GSLs. Gene array analysis implied that Ugcg is significantly overexpressed in human HCC a...
متن کاملGrowth inhibition of human hepatocellular carcinoma cells by overexpression of G-protein-coupled receptor kinase 2.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the deadliest forms of human liver cancer and does not respond well to conventional therapies. Novel effective treatments are urgently in need. G-protein-coupled kinase 2 (GRK2) is unique serine/threonine kinase that involves in many signaling pathways and regulates various essential cellular processes. Altered levels of GRK2 have been linked with severa...
