WHAT'S KNOWN ON THE SUBJECT? AND WHAT DOES THE STUDY ADD?: Novel intravesical therapies are needed for superficial bladder cancer that reduce the risk of infection associated with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) and further destabilization of the urothelium associated with cytotoxic chemotherapy.
Anacardic acid is a dietary and medicinal phytochemical that inhibits breast cancer cell proliferation and uncouples oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) in isolated rat liver mitochondria. Since mitochondrial-targeted anticancer therapy (mitocans) may be useful in breast cancer, we examined the
BACKGROUND
Oleic Acid (OA) has been shown to have anticancer properties mediated by interaction with proteins such as α-lactalbumin and lactoferrins. Therefore, we synthesized complexes of OA and Gc protein-derived macrophage activating factor (GcMAF) that inhibits per se cancer cell proliferation
Background: Since the serendipitous discovery of bovine α-lactalbumin made lethal to tumour cells (BAMLET)/human α-lactalbumin made lethal to tumour cells there has been an increased interest in the ability of the two components, oleic
Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein complex that elongates telomeric DNA and appears to play an important part in the cellular immortalization of cancers. In the screening of potent inhibitors of human telomerase, several inhibitors have been discovered from natural and chemical sources. Some
α-Lactalbumin (α-LA) can bind oleic acid (OA) to form the anti-tumor α-LA-OA complex. Previous studies suggested α-LA-OA induced apoptosis or autophagy in an independent way. Furthermore, as a large molecule, α-LA-OA could enter tumor cells and accumulated in the nucleus, which was speculated as the
An α-lactalbumin-oleic acid (α-LA-OA) complex has exhibited selective antitumor activity in animal models and clinical trials. Although apoptosis and autophagy are activated and the functions of several organelles are disrupted in response to α-LA-OA, the detailed antitumor mechanism remains
The final proof about the specific mechanisms by which the different components of olive oil, the principal source of fat in a typical "Mediterranean diet", exert their potential protective effects on the promotion and progression of several human cancers requires further investigations. A recent
Olive oil is an integral ingredient of the "Mediterranean diet" and accumulating evidence suggests that it may have a potential role in lowering risk of several cancers. We recently hypothesized that the anti-cancer actions of olive oil may relate to its monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) oleic acid
Although HAMLET (human α-lactalbumin made lethal to tumor cells), a complex formed by human α-lactalbumin and oleic acid, has a unique apoptotic activity for the selective killing of tumor cells, the molecular mechanisms of expression of the HAMLET activity are not well understood. Therefore, we
I examined the effects of carp oil, oleic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid on tumor growth and metastasis to the liver in mice implanted intrasplenically with highly metastatic Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) tumors. Carp oil (0.1 or 0.2 mL per mouse) significantly reduced tumor growth and
The aim of this study was to investigate the pharmacokinetics and biodistribution in Sprague-Dawley rats, anti-tumor activity and acute toxicity in different tumor-bearing mice of novel biocompatible nanoparticles. Paclitaxel (PTX) was selected as a model drug and loaded on different tumor types and
We investigated the effects of oleic acid and linoleic acid on transplanted Ehrlich ascites carcinoma and Ehrlich solid carcinoma in ACR mice. Both acids significantly prolonged the life spans of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma-bearing mice and inhibited the growth of Ehrlich solid carcinoma in mice
Cancer has been conquered by recent advances in chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and their combinations. However, 90 % of cancer patients die due to cancer recurrence or metastasis. Cancer cell change their metabolic properties to metastasize, changing from conventional glycometabolism Previous studies have demonstrated that the anti-tumor α-lactalbumin-oleic acid complex (α-LA-OA) may target the glycolysis of tumor cells. However, few data are available regarding the effects of α-LA-OA on energy metabolism. In this study, we measured glycolysis and mitochondrial functions in HeLa
