OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of cell proliferation in human breast cancer cells (MDA-MB 435), which has non-receptor of estrogen (Er), induced by beta-ionone. MDA-MB 435 cells were treated with different beta-ionone concentrations (25, 50, 100 and 200 micromol/L), with a negative
Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common type of head and neck cancer worldwide. Radiation and chemotherapy are general treatments for patients; however, these remedies can have adverse side effects and tumours develop drug resistance. Effective treatments still require improvement for cancer
Novel chiral ionone alkaloid derivatives were synthesized and evaluated their anti-metastatic effects in human MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. The chiral center C-6 of derivatives exerted an important role in response to the anti-metastatic activity. Comparing with a positive control of LY294002,
A crucial event in prostate cancer progression is the transition from a hormone-sensitive to a lethal castration-refractory disease state. The antagonist-to-agonist conversion due to mutation in AR is a critical problem with the current clinically used antiandrogens. We aim to identify novel
Among the primary neoplasias that affect the liver, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most frequent and the third leading cause of death related to cancer. Several risk factors predispose individuals to HCC such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), whose incidence has significantly
Diverse classes of phytochemicals initiate biological responses that effectively lower cancer risk. One class of phytochemicals, broadly defined as pure and mixed isoprenoids, encompasses an estimated 22,000 individual components. A representative mixed isoprenoid, gamma-tocotrienol, suppresses the
A series of β-ionone derived chalcones were evaluated for cytotoxic activity against various human cancer cell lines using SRB dye assay. All the compounds displayed moderate to high cytotoxic effect against almost all the cancer cell lines. The results also revealed the effect of substituents of
Dietary isoprenic derivatives such as β-ionone (βI) are a promising class of chemopreventive agents. In this study, cellular aspects of βI protective activities during early hepatocarcinogenesis were evaluated. Male Wistar rats were submitted to "resistant hepatocyte" model and then received daily
The methanol extracts of the aerial part of four ethnomedicinal plants of Mediterranean region, two non-seed vascular plants, Equisetum hyemale L. and Phyllitis scolopendrium (L.) Newman, and two Spermatophyta, Juniperus communis L. (J. communis) and Cotinus coggygria Scop. (C. coggygria), were
OBJECTIVE
We previously reported that the olfactory receptor OR51E2, overexpressed in LNCaP prostate cancer cells, promotes cell invasiveness upon stimulation of its agonist β-ionone, and this phenomenon increases metastatic spread. Furthermore, we showed that the induced cell invasiveness involves
Current therapeutic strategy for advanced prostate cancer is to suppress the androgen receptor (AR) signaling. However, lethal castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) arises due to AR reactivation via multiple mechanisms, including mutations in the AR and cross-talk with other pathways such as
β-ionone (βI), a cyclic isoprenoid, and geraniol (GO), an acyclic monoterpene, represent a promising class of dietary chemopreventive agents against cancer, whose combination could result in synergistic anticarcinogenic effects. The chemopreventive activities of βI and GO were evaluated individually
β-Ionone, a precursor of carotenoids, possesses a variety of biological properties such as anti-cancerous, anti-mutagenic and anti-microbial activity. Nevertheless, anti-inflammatory effects of β-ionone remain unknown. In this study, we investigated whether ION attenuates the expression of
The combination of anti-cancer drugs with nutritional factors is a potential strategy for improving the efficacy of chemotherapy, particularly for hepatocellular carcinoma because its conventional therapies are mostly ineffective. Using a highly invasive hepatoma SK-Hep-1 cell line, we investigated
beta-Ionone (ION), an end-ring analogue of beta-carotenoid, has been known to inhibit tumor cell growth and induce apoptosis in various types of cancer cells. Nevertheless, its apoptosis-related molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we first investigated the molecular mechanisms by which ION
