We have previously demonstrated super-induced expression of the Grin2c gene encoding the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 2C subunit during the process of liver enlargement induced by phenobarbital, clofibrate, piperonyl butoxide, or lead nitrate. In the present study, hepatic Grin2c gene expression
The cytoprotective effect of the natural dietary constituent indole-3-carbinol (I-3-C) on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) mediated hepatotoxicity in mice was examined. I-3-C pretreatment by gavage 1 hr prior to intraperitoneal injection of CCl4 produced a 63% decrease in CCl4-mediated centrolobular
This study is to investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of indole-3-carbinol (I3C) on pig serum-induced liver fibrosis of rats. The liver fibrotic model of rats was induced by pig serum. After models were successfully established, rats in the treatment groups were administered with I3C
OBJECTIVE
The apoptosis of activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) is the central event in the reversal of liver fibrosis. K63 de-ubiquitinated receptor-interacting protein (RIP)1 promotes apoptosis in tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α signaling pathway. In the previous study, we have proved that
This study addressed the effect of indole-3-carbinol (I3C) supplementation on hepatic steatosis in mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD) and clarified the underlying mechanism. Male C57BL/6N mice were divided into three groups: those who received a normal diet, those fed with HFD and those fed with 0.1%
BACKGROUND
Many tumours undergo disregulation of polyamine homeostasis and upregulation of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity, which can promote carcinogenesis. In animal models of colon carcinogenesis, inhibition of ODC activity by difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) has been shown to reduce the
BACKGROUND
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) induces tissue inflammation, which is characterized by an increased leukocyte-endothelial cell interaction and leukocyte transmigration. These processes are mediated by the activation of the nuclear factor (NF)κB signaling pathway, resulting in an elevated
We have identified a new target for the chemopreventive dietary agent indole-3-carbinol (13C) in the antiapoptotic signaling pathway involving phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase and protein kinase B (PKB)/Akt. 13C inhibited phosphorylation and activation of PKB in the tumor-derived breast cell line MDA
The effects of administering indole-3-carbinol (I-3-C) on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced hepatotoxicity were examined. Mice received by gavage 0-150 mg I-3-C/kg body wt in methanol-extracted corn oil, followed 1 h later by 15 microliters CCl4/kg body wt in corn oil. Animals were sacrificed 24 h
Elastase is the only currently identified target protein for indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a naturally occurring hydrolysis product of glucobrassicin in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts that induces a cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of human breast cancer cells. In
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common medical conditions that lead to female infertility worldwide. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of linagliptin and/or indole-3-carbinol (I3C) on PCOS in female rats. Fifty female Wistar rats were randomly allocated into five
Indole-3-carbinol (I-3-C) was examined for its ability to protect mice against 24-hr N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA)-mediated hepatotoxicity. NDMA (20 mg/kg body weight) alone produced extensive hemorrhagic and centrolobular necrotic lesions, with a necrotic severity index of 3.0 +/- 0.4 (scale of
ET-743, an experimental antitumor drug with promising activity in sarcoma, breast and ovarian carcinoma, is currently under phase 2 clinical evaluation. It is hepatotoxic in animals and patients. We tested the hypothesis that indole-3-carbinol (I3C), the hydrolysis product of glucosinolates
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men and is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the USA. Many anti-tumor agents against prostate cancer cells have been developed, but their unacceptable systemic toxicity to normal tissues frequently limits their usage in clinics.
Treatment of highly tumorigenic MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells with indole-3-carbinol (I3C) directly inhibited the extracellular elastase-dependent cleavage of membrane-associated CD40, a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily. CD40 signaling has been implicated in
