Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleP-Glycoprotein-Mediated Efflux and Drug Sequestration in Lysosomes Confer Advantages of K562 Multidrug Resistance Sublines to Survive Prolonged Exposure to Cytotoxic AgentsNathupakorn Dechsupa, Samlee MankhetkornProblem statement: Cellular drug resistance to anticancer agents is major obstacle in cancer chemotherapy and the mechanisms by which these MDR cells possess for protecting themselves to survive prolonged exposure to cytotoxic agents still debating. The study aimed to clarify the role of P-glycoprotein (Pgp) and enhanced drug sequestration in lysosomes to confer the multidrug resistance K562 cells with varied … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,504 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparative Effect of Ulvan and Biosynthesized Silver Nanoparticles on Different Cell Lines Cytotoxicity and Gene ExpressionHadear Hanie Amin, Mohammed Ahmed Taha AbdelreheemUntil now, researchers searching for compounds that contribute for treating the most serious disease of this age, cancer. Researchers hope to contribute to this through this research. Activities of both Ulvan extracted from Ulva lactuca and silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) were examined against seven different cancer cell types called (Caco2 cells, A549 cells, Mcf7 cells, Hep2 cells, HepG2 cells, PC3 cells, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2020 · 6,675 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleQuercetin, Quercetrin Except Rutin Potentially Increased Pirarubicin Cytotoxicity by Non-Competitively Inhibiting the P-Glycoprotein-and MRP1 Function in Living K562/adr and GLC4/adr CellsWinit Choiprasert, Nathupakorn Dechsupa, Suchart Kothan et al.Problem statement: Quercetin and its glycoside derivatives are increasingly receiving interests as new generation of anticancer molecules and were recognized by multidrug resistant transporters such as P-glycoprotein and MRP1 protein. Of relevance to their use as anticancer agents alone or in combination with other agents, this study aims to analyze the interaction of the compounds with the MDR transporters including … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDiatrizoate, Iopromide and Iotrolan Enhanced Cytotoxicity of Daunorubicin in Multidrug Resistant K562/adr Cells: Impaired the Mitochondrial and Inhibited the P-Glycoprotein FunctionNitaya Snitwongse Na Ayudhya, Samlee MankhetkornMultidrug resistance was an obstacle in cancer chemotherapy because the cells decreased their intracellular drug accumulation by energy-dependent compounds efflux pumps such as P-glycoprotein (P-gp). This study observed some iodinated radiographic contrast media, diatrizoate, iopromide and iotrolan affected the cellular energetic state and the kinetics of P-gp in drug-sensitive K562 and drug resistant K562/adr cell lines using spectrophotometer and spectrofluorometer. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,161 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPharmacological Properties of Bioactive Extracts from the Rhizome of Aristolochia longa LAmal El Hamsas El Youbi, Dalila BoustaAristolochia longa is a medicinal plant well known in Moroccan folk medicine for its activity against constipation, intestinal infections and skin diseases. The present study was performed to evaluate in vitro and in vivo immunomodulatory and cytotoxic activities of aqueous and protein extracts of A. longa. The in vitro immunomodulatory results showed that aqueous extract at 0.1 mg/mL enhanced T-lymphocyte … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 21 Jul 2020 · 7,456 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLarvicidal Activity of Bruceine A against Aedes aegypti and Toxicity on Vero CellsDwi Sutiningsih, Mustofa, Tri Baskoro Tunggul Satoto, Edhi MartonoVector control is still based on the use of chemical insecticides, which can cause death of nontarget animals, pollution and the emergence of vector resistance. This study aims to assess the larvicidal activity of bruceine A against larvae of Aedes aegypti and its cytotoxic activity against Vero cells.
