Anti-Tumor and Radiosensitization Effects of N-Butylidenephthalide on Human Breast Cancer Cells.
N-Butylidenephthalide (BP), which is extracted from a traditional Chinese medicine, Radix Angelica Sinensis (danggui), displays antitumor activity against various cancer cell lines. The purpose of this study was to investigate the cytotoxic and radiosensitizing effect of BP and the underlying mechanism of action in human breast cancer cells. BP induces apoptosis in breast cancer cells, which wa...
متن کاملEffects of berberine on proliferation, cell cycle distribution and apoptosis of human breast cancer T47D and MCF7 cell lines
Objective(s):Berberine, a naturally occurring isoquinoline alkaloid, has shown antitumor properties in some in vitro systems. But the effect of berberine on breast cancer has not yet been completely studied. In this study, we evaluated anticancer properties of berberine in comparison to doxorubicin. Materials and Methods: The antiproliferative effects of berberine and doxorubicin alone and in ...
متن کاملAnti-invasion Effects of Cannabinoids Agonist and Antagonist on Human Breast Cancer Stem Cells
Studies show that cancer cell invasion or metastasis is the primary cause of death inmalignancies including breast cancer. The existence of cancer stem cells (CSCs) in breast cancermay account for tumor initiation, progression, and metastasis. Recent studies have reporteddifferent effects of cannabinoids on cancer cells via CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors. In thepresent study, the effects of ...

متن کاملRadiosensitization of breast cancer cells using AS1411 aptamer-conjugated gold nanoparticles
Introduction: A main choice for cancer treatment is radiotherapy. But, the radiotherapy disadvantage is damages caused by radiation given to normal tissues/organs surrounding cancer. One way to avoid this is via increasing radiosensitization of cancer cells. Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have shown sensitizing effect on cancer cells by enhancing their absorbed dose. Unlike earlier ...
