The Potential Utility of Curcumin in the Treatment of HER-2-Overexpressed Breast Cancer... - 0 views

  •  
    Curcumin downregulates HER-2 oncoprotein in breast cancer in vitro and in vivo.  IN this study, the combination of taxol and curcumin was comparable to that of taxol and perceptin.

Toll-like Receptor Status in Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome: A Translational Perspectiv... - 0 views

  •  
    Only the abstract is available publicly.   Toll-like receptors, particularly TLR-4 has been shown to be associated with insulin resistance.  These TLRs have specific pathogen recognition sites.  TLRs are stimulated by fatty acids (FA) and endotoxemia from bacteria.  Thus, dietary intake of high trans fats, inflammation originating from the gut can be the source of insulin receptor dysfunction through TLRs.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Inflammatory Processes - 0 views

  • marine n-3 PUFAs have also been shown to alter the production of inflammatory proteins including chemokines, cytokines, growth factors and matrix proteases
  • Two transcription factors that are likely to play a role in inflammation are nuclear factor κ B (NFκB) and PPAR-γ
  • NFκB is the principal transcription factor involved in upregulation of inflammatory cytokine, adhesion molecule and cyclooxygenase-2 genes
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • PPAR-γ, is believed to act in an anti-inflammatory manner
  • PPAR-γ directly regulates inflammatory gene expression, it also interferes with the activation of NFκB creating an intriguing interaction between these two transcription factors
  • Both NFκB and PPAR-γ may be regulated by n-3 PUFAs.
  •  
    great review of the anti-inflammatory effects of omega 3 DHA and EPA.  EPA inhibits COX and 5-LOX and their downstream prostaglandin and leukotrienes.  EPA/DHA inhibited endotoxin-stimulated IL-6, IL-8,TNF-alpha, and NFkappaB.

Drug Screening Identifies Niclosamide as an Inhibitor of Breast Cancer Stem-Like Cells - 0 views

  • cancer stem cells may also contribute to tumor formation, metastasis, and treatment resistance
  • Studies have shown that some agents (such as metformin) can selectively target cancer stem cells and that dietary polyphenols, curcumin, peperine, and sulforaphane, which are derived from broccoli/broccoli sprouts, are able to target breast cancer stem cells via inhibition of the Wnt signaling, which affects mammosphere size and colony formation
  • niclosamide inhibits tumor growth and reduces tumor weight
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • Niclosamide treatment inhibited the expression of cyclin D1, Hes1, and PTCH by 33%, 57%, and 79%, respectively
  • The mechanism via which niclosamide, a protonophoric anthelmintic drug, induces stem-like-cell-specific toxicity in breast cancer is interesting. It is an old drug that has been used to treat tapeworms in animals
  • Niclosamide is known to uncouple mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation during tapeworm killing
  • A screening of autophagy modulators revealed that niclosamide is a novel inhibitor of mTORC1 signaling
  • A recent work also demonstrated that niclosamide induces the apoptosis of myelogenous leukemic cells via the inactivation of NF-kappaB and reactive oxygen species generation
  • Niclosamide was also reported to inhibit Wnt signaling [31]–[33] in colon cancer cells
  • Our recent work demonstrated that niclosamide disrupts multiple metabolic pathways in ovarian-cancer-initiating cells
  • The present study showed that niclosamide treatment resulted in the downregulation of target genes involved in the self-renewal of cancer stem-like cells and inhibited breast SPS
  •  
    Old ant-parasitic, niclosamide, found to down-regulate cancer stem cell activity.
