This study is to investigate the effect of rhein lysinate on inducing human breast cancer cell line SK-Br-3 apoptosis and the role of HER-2 signal pathway in the apoptosis. MTT assay was used to detect SK-Br-3 cell proliferation. Cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein

Background: The management of metastatic cancer remains a major challenge in cancer therapy worldwide. The targeted delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs through rationally designed formulations is one potential therapeutic option. Notably,

Rhein is a natural product purified from herbal plants such as Rheum palmatum, which has been shown to have anti-angiogenesis and anti-tumor metastasis properties. However, the biological effects of rhein on the behavior of breast cancers are not completely elucidated. To evaluate whether rhein

Earlier studies have shown that rhein, one of the major bioactive constituents of the rhizome of rhubarb, inhibits the proliferation of various human cancer cells. However, because of its water insolubility, the antitumor efficacy of rhein is limited in vivo. In this study, we studied the antitumor

Background: Triple-negative breast cancer is a common malignant tumor with unfavorable prognosis affecting women worldwide; thus, there is an urgent need for novel therapeutic drugs with improved anti-tumor activity. Rac family small

Rhein, an anthraquinone extracted from rhubarb, is used in traditional Chinese medicine for diuresis, diarrhoea, inflammation, and immune regulation. Atezolizumab, a programmed cell death ligand 1 monoclonal antibody, is mainly used to treat bladder cancer and non-small cell lung cancer unresponsive

Human breast cancers cells overexpressing HER2/neu are more aggressive tumors with poor prognosis, and resistance to chemotherapy. This study investigates antiproliferation effects of anthraquinone derivatives of rhubarb root on human breast cancer cells. Of 7 anthraquinone derivatives, only rhein

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) has very poor prognosis and no efficacious therapeutic options due to the absence of a validated molecular target. Therefore, novel therapeutic strategies against TNBC are urgently needed. Our team synthesized and screened a series of compounds derived from

Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2)-positive breast cancer tends to be aggressive, highly metastatic, and drug resistant and spreads rapidly. Studies have indicated that emodin inhibits HER-2 expression. This study compared the HER-2-inhibitory effects of two compounds extracted from

OBJECTIVE To examine whether patients' perception of a hospital's organizational climate has an impact on their trust in physicians after accounting for physicians' communication behaviors as perceived by the patients and patient characteristics. METHODS Patients undergoing treatment in breast

Tiaowei Chengqi Tang (TWCQT) is composed of rhubarb, processed liquorice, and Natrii Sulfas, which is used as a purgative in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). This study focused on the intestinal absorption of rhein in disassembly of the TWCQT extracts through the Caco-2 cell monolayer model to

In previous studies we observed that rhein lysinate (RHL), a salt of rhein and lysine that is easily dissolved in water, inhibited the growth of tumor cells in breast cancer, ovarian cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma and cervical cancer. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of RHL on

In our primary studies, we have shown that emodin, aloe-emodin and rhein induced cytotoxic effects, including cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in SCC-4 human tongue cancer cells. However, details regarding their effects on DNA damage and repair gene expression in SCC-4 cells are not clear. We
