BACKGROUND
Dermatofibromas are common benign tumors in women, and breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women. The aim of this study is to determine if there is any relationship between the two conditions.
METHODS
Five patients with dermatofibromas and 10 control patients (two groups) had
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate whether the presence of polymorphisms of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma PPARγ (Pro 1 2Ala) and PPARGC1B (Ala203Pro) modifies the association between the inorganic arsenic (iAs) methylation capacity and breast cancer (BC).
METHODS
Mexican women were
To evaluate the effects of tetrandrine plus arsenic trioxide on HCC1937 cells, a triple negative breast cancer cell line, and to explore possible mechanisms.The 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide method was used to compare the OBJECTIVE
The study was to research the biological effect and mechanisms of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) on human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231.
METHODS
The cytotoxicity was observed by MTT assay. Apoptosis was detected with Annexin V-FITC + PI dual parameter. Cell cycle and positive rate of
The aim of this study was to investigate the radiosensitizing effects of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) on MCF-7 human breast cancer cells irradiated with 89 strontium chloride (89SrCl2). The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) was calculated from results of an MTT assay. The concentration of As2O3 less
It has been reported that arsenic trioxide (As2O3) is an apoptosis inducer and radiation sensitizer for various cancer cell lines. In this study of breast cancer patients, we examined the combined effect of topical As2O3 and radiation therapy on fungating and/or skin-infiltrating lesions of breast
OBJECTIVE
To study the effects of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) on the proliferation and the migration force of human breast cancer SKBR-3 cell and the expression of Notch1.
METHODS
SKBR-3 cells were cultured with different concentrations of As2O3 for 24 h and with the final concentration of 8 micromol/L
OBJECTIVE
To study the demethylation effect of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) on ERα-negative human breast cancer MDA-MB-435s cells and its possible mechanisms, and to observe its treatment efficacy in combination with tamoxifen (TAM) after ERα re-expression.
METHODS
MTT assay was used to examine the
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate whether the association between breast cancer (BC) and inorganic arsenic (iAs) exposure is modulated by selected polymorphisms in iAs metabolism.
METHODS
A population based case-control (1016/1028) study was conducted in Northern Mexico. Urinary arsenic metabolites were
Exposure to environmental contaminants, dietary factors and lifestyles may explain worldwide different breast cancer (BC) incidence. Inorganic arsenic (iAs) in the drinking water is a concern in many regions, such as northern Mexico. Studies in several countries have associated the proportion of
When estrogen binds its receptor (ER), it becomes a potent mitogen in a number of target tissues including the mammary gland where it plays an important role in the pathogenesis of mammary carcinoma. Arsenic trioxide (AS2O3), a clinically effective agent against acute promyelocytic leukemia, has
Arsenic trioxide (As2O3) is used clinically to treat acute promyelocytic leukemia and has activity in vitro against several solid tumour cell lines, where induction of differentiation and apoptosis are the prime effects. To investigate the potential therapeutic application of As2O3 to breast cancer,
A partial response or resistance to chemotherapeutic agents is considered as a main obstacle in treatment of patients with cancer, including breast cancer. Refining taxane-based treatment procedures using adjuvant or combination treatment is a novel strategy to increase the efficiency of
Arsenic trioxide (As(2)O(3)) is one of the arsenic compounds found in nature. As(2)O(3) has recently been used to treat patients suffering from retinoic acid receptor (AML). It is of clinical interest to investigate whether As(2)O(3) is also effective in treating solid tumors. Here, we report that
Currently, arsenic has been clinically investigated as a therapeutic agent for a variety of solid malignancies, including breast cancer. However, the exact underlying molecular mechanisms through which arsenic trioxide (As(2)O(3)) induces cell growth arrest and apoptosis in solid tumors have not
