Induction of pyroptosis in colon cancer cells by LXRβ
نویسندگان
چکیده
Liver X receptors (LXRs) have been proposed to have some anticancer properties. We recently identified a new non-genomic role of LXRβ in colon cancer cells. Under LXR agonist treatment, LXRβ induces pyroptosis of these cells in vitro and in vivo, raising the possibility of targeting this isoform in cancer treatment.

Liver X Receptor ligand cytotoxicity in colon cancer cells and not in normal colon epithelial cells depends on LXRβ subcellular localization
Increasing evidence indicates that Liver X Receptors (LXRs) have some anticancer properties. We recently demonstrated that LXR ligands induce colon cancer cell pyroptosis through an LXRβ-dependent pathway. In the present study, we showed that human colon cancer cell lines presented differential cytoplasmic localizations of LXRβ. This localization correlated with caspase-1 activation and cell de...
متن کاملPrimula auriculata Extracts Exert Cytotoxic and Apoptotic Effects against HT-29 Human Colon Adenocarcinoma Cells
Primula auriculata (Tootia) is one of the most important local medicinal plants in Hamedan district, Iran. To investigate cytotoxicity and apoptosis induction of crude methanolic extract and different fraction of it we compared several methods on HT-29 human colon Adenocarcinoma cells. Cancer cell proliferation was measured by 3-(4, 5‑dimethylthiazolyl)-2, 5‑diphenyl‑tetrazolium bromide (MTT) a...

متن کاملLXRβ subcellular localization: A new tool to investigate cancer cell response to LXR ligand-induced cytotoxicity?
Liver X Receptors (LXRs) and their ligands are known for their potential anticancer properties. Recently, our team underlined for the first time that these ligands induce colon cancer cell death through the activation of the inflammasome pathway in an LXRβ-dependent manner. Moreover, a truncated form of the Retinoid X Receptor α (RXRα), t-RXRα, produced only in cancer cells and not in normal co...
متن کاملThe Study of Expression of Casp3/Bax Genes in HT29 Colon Cancer Cell Line with Lactobacillus rhamnosus Co-Culturing
Introduction: Colon cancer has spread to developed countries. Probiotic bacteria can play an important role in reducing cancer and treating colon cancer. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of adjacent bovine Lactobacillus rhamnose culture on the expression of casp3 and bax genes in cancer cell. Materials & Methods: In this experimental study after bacterial culture, supernatan...
