Because the activities of HER family members are elevated and/or aberrant in a variety of human neoplasms, these cell surface receptors are receiving increasing attention as potential therapeutic targets. In the present study, we examined the effect of combining the HER family tyrosine kinase
Recently, natural product DNA topoisomerase I inhibitors 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) and camptothecin (CPT) have been shown to have therapeutic effects in both in vitro and in vivo models of human breast cancer. In the present study, we characterized the in vitro and in vivo apoptotic pathways
The DNA topoisomerase I inhibitors, 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) and camptothecin (CPT), are indole alkaloids isolated from the Chinese tree, Camptotheca acuminata. They have been shown to have a wide spectrum of anticancer activity both in vitro and in vivo. However, their use has been limited due
AR-67 (7-t-butyldimethylsilyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin) is a lipophilic camptothecin analog, currently under early stage clinical trials. Transporters are known to have an impact on the disposition of camptothecins and on the response to chemotherapeutics in general due to their expression in tumor
Overexpression of breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) ABCG2 reportedly confers cancer cell resistance to camptothecin-based anticancer drugs, such as topotecan and 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN-38: the active metabolite of irinotecan). We have recently shown that SN-38-selected PC-6/SN2-5H
Lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (NPs) combining the positive attributes of both liposomes and polymeric NPs are increasingly being considered as promising candidates to carry therapeutic agents safely and efficiently into targeted sites. Herein, a modified emulsification technique was developed
The safety and efficacy of combination therapy with 7-ethyl-10-[4-[1-piperidino]-1-piperidino]carbonyloxycamptothecin (CPT-11, irinotecan) and S-1 composed of tegafur, a prodrug of 5-fluorouracil, gimeracil, and potassium oxonate, have been confirmed in patients with colorectal cancer. Previously,
Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP/ABCG2) is a novel member of ATP- binding cassette transporters, which induce multidrug resistance in cancer cells. We found that a high level of BCRP expression in CD4+ T cells conferred cellular resistance to human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1)
Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), also called ABCG2, confers resistance to anticancer agents such as 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN-38), mitoxantrone, and topotecan. We found previously that sulfated estrogens are physiologic substrates of BCRP. Flavonoids with weak estrogenic activities
BACKGROUND
Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) functions as a drug efflux transporter that mediates drug resistance. Topoisomerase I inhibitors, including 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN-38), are substrates effluxed by BCRP. However, it remains unclear whether the overexpression of BCRP
Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), an ATP-binding cassette transporter, confers resistance to a series of anticancer reagents such as mitoxantrone, 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin, and topotecan. We reported previously that estrone and 17beta-estradiol reverse BCRP-mediated multidrug
Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is a half-molecule ATP-binding cassette transporter that forms a functional homodimer and pumps out various anticancer agents, such as 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin, topotecan, mitoxantrone and flavopiridol, from cells. Estrogens, such as estrone and
OBJECTIVE
Intestinal toxicity and low levels of systemic drug exposure are among the major problems associated with tumour therapy. We have developed poly (ethylene oxide)-poly (propylene oxide)-poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) micelles loaded with irinotecan hydrochloride (CPT-11) hoping to
Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is a half-molecule ATP-binding cassette transporter that pumps out various anticancer agents such as 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin, topotecan and mitoxantrone. We have previously identified three polymorphisms within the BCRP gene, G34A (substituting Met for
The breast cancer resistance protein, BCRP/ABCG2, is a half-molecule ATP-binding cassette transporter that facilitates the efflux of various anticancer agents from the cell, including 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin, topotecan and mitoxantrone. The expression of BCRP can thus confer a multidrug
