BACKGROUND
Cepharanthine (CEP) is a biscoclaurine alkaloid extracted from Stephania cepharantha and has been shown to have an anti-tumour effect on different types of cancers. However, the anti-cancer effect of CEP on human breast cancer cells is still unclear.
METHODS
We used MTT, clone formation,
Irinotecan, 7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino] carbonyloxycamptothecin, (CPT-11) resistance was overcome by using a biscoclaurine alkaloid, cepharanthine, in CPT-11- and multidrug-resistant 50MT-1 cells. 50MT-1 cells were established from a mouse breast-cancer cell line, FM3A, by subjecting
Cholesterol is an important modulator of membrane protein function and signaling in endothelial cells, thus making it an emerging target for anti-angiogenic agents. In this study, we employed a phenotypic screen that detects intracellular cholesterol distribution in endothelial cells (HUVEC) and
MYO1C, an actin-based motor protein, is involved in the late stages of autophagosome maturation and fusion with the lysosome. The molecular mechanism by which MYO1C regulates autophagosome-lysosome fusion remains largely unclear.Western blotting was used to
