Chemotherapy, a major approach was used in carcinoma treatment, always involves the development of drug resistance as well as side-effects that affect the quality of patients' lives. An association between epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and chemotherapy resistance was established recently.
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide and chemotherapy is the main approach for the treatment of advanced and recurrent cases. Developing an effective complementary therapy could help to improve tumor suppression efficiency and control adverse effects from chemotherapy.
Poor response and resistance to cisplatin (DDP)-based chemotherapy frequently leads to treatment failure in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The underlying molecular mechanism is extremely complex and currently remains unclear. The overexpression of cancerous inhibitor of protein
Polyphyllin I (PPI), an extract from Paris polyphylla, has been demonstrated to possess antitumor activity against multiple cancers. However, whether PPI can inhibit bladder cancer (BCa) and the underlying mechanisms have never been researched. In this study, we initially found that PPI could induce
Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is regarded as a process where very aggressive cancer cells generate vascular-like patterns without the presence of endothelial cells. It is considered as the main mark of malignant cancer and has pivotal role in cancer metastasis and progression in various types of
The high recurrence frequency of gliomas but deficiency of effective treatment and prevalent chemoresistance have elicited interests in exploring and developing new agents. Paris polyphyllins are monomers extracted from rhizome of Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis. Here, we first reported that
Chong-lou, the rhizome of Paris polyphylla, has been used in herbal regimes to treat parotitis, mastitis and certain malignant tumors for thousands of years in traditional medicine. Polyphyllin I (PPI) is the main bioactive component in Paris polyphylla. Recent studies of PPI in various types of
