Many osteopenic disorders, including a postmenopausal osteoporosis and lytic bone metastasis in breast and prostate cancers, are linked with a hyperosteoclast activity due to increased receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) expression in osteoblastic/stromal cells. Therefore,
Saikosaponin b2 (SSb2) can be extracted from Bupleurum spp. roots (Radix Bupleuri), which belongs to the Umbelliferae family. The current study aimed to explore the effects of SSb2 on proliferation of breast cancer cells and to identify the mechanism by which SSb2 affects breast cancer cell
The present study aimed to explore the effect of Saikosaponin D (SSD) and its underlying mechanism on apoptosis and autophagy in human breast cancer MDA‑MB‑231 cells. MTT assay, flow cytometry, western blotting and confocal fluorescence microscopy detection were employed. SSD, a kind of triterpenoid
Saikosaponin A (SSa) is isolated from the dried root of Radix Bupleuri, an herb widely used in traditional Chinese medicine, exerting antitumor activities. The T helper cell type 1(Th1)/Th2 balance is associated with antitumor immunity in breast cancer. The present study aimed to investigate
BACKGROUND
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is one of the most aggressive and poor prognosis breast cancers. Currently, chemotherapy with conventional cytotoxic agents is the only available option to treat TNBC. Hence, we identified new therapeutic agents against TNBC from traditional Chinese
Purpose: Due to a lack of recognized molecular targets for therapy, patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), unlike other subtypes of breast cancers, generally have not benefited from the advances made with targeted agents. The CXCR4/SDF-1 axis is involved in tumor growth and
Multidrug resistance (MDR) cells over expressing P-glycoprotein (P-gp) encoded by the MDR1 gene is major obstacles for successful cancer chemotherapy. P-gp could extrude anti-cancer drugs out of cancer cells and decrease effective intracellular drug concentrations. MDR reversal agents for P-gp can
The effects of Saikosaponin-A on human breast cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7) were investigated. Results demonstrated that Saikosaponin-A inhibited the proliferation or viability of the MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Saikosaponin-A treatment of MDA-MB-231 for 3 hours
OBJECTIVE
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major cause of chemotherapy failure in the treatment of cancer patients. This study aimed to determine whether saikosaponin D (SSd) can enhance the efficacy of the anticancer drug doxorubicin (Dox) both in vitro and in vivo and whether SSd can alter Dox
A separation method using counter current chromatography coupled with an evaporative light-scattering detection system was developed to purify five triterpenoid saponins from the roots of Bupleurum falcatum. The methanol extract was loaded onto a Diaion® HP20 column and fractionated by a methanol
