oroxylin/breast neoplasms

Our previous study revealed that oroxylin A, a naturally occurring monoflavonoid isolated from Scutellariae radix, could inhibit the proliferation of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells through inducing the apoptosis in these cells. However, the molecular mechanism of its anticancer activity

Oroxylin A is a natural extract and has been reported to have a remarkable anticancer function. However, the mechanism of its anticancer activity remains not quite clear. In this study, we examined the inhibiting effects of Oroxylin A on breast cancer cell proliferation, migration, and

Tumor initiation and progression are not only ascribed to the behavior of cancer cells, but also profoundly influenced by the tumor microenvironment. Inside, cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) have become key factors to accelerate growth and metastasis for the abundance in most solid tumors. Our

Alterations of cellular metabolism play a central role in the development and progression of cancer. Oroxylin A, an active flavonoid of a Chinese traditional medicinal plant, was previously shown to modulate glycolysis in cancer cells. However, the mechanism by which oroxylin A regulates glycolysis

Human cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1)-mediated formation of 4-hydroxyestradiol (4-OHE2) from 17β-estradiol plays an important role in the progression of human breast cancer, while the biotransformation of 17β-estradiol to 2-hydroxyestradiol mediated by cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) is considered as a

Targeting therapy of anti-cancer drugs has been gaining increasing attention. Cell pharmacokinetics have been used for in vitro disposition evaluation, as well as drug-drug interaction for anti-cancer drugs, revealing their fate after entering tumor. Flavonoid compound oroxylin A (OA) possesses

Oroxylin A is a flavonoid found in the roots of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, a herbal medicine commonly used as an antipyretic, analgesic, antitumor, and anti-inflammatory agent. It has recently been investigated for its anticancer activities in hepatoma, gastric, and breast tumors. Here, we

Snail is closely linked to tumor invasion, metastasis, and recurrence and indicates prognosis of patients suffering from cancer. Overexpression of Snail increases motility and invasiveness of cancer cells, which has become target for anti-metastatic treatment. Oroxylin A, a natural compound
