Inactivation of Nuclear Factor κB by Soy Isoflavone Genistein Contributes to Increased Apoptosis Induced by Chemotherapeutic Agents in Human Cancer Cells

TL;DR: It is suggested that genistein pretreatment inactivates NF-kappaB and may contribute to increased growth inhibition and apoptosis induced by cisplatin, docetaxel, and doxorubicin in prostate, breast, lung, and pancreatic cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel Schiff base copper complexes of quinoline-2 carboxaldehyde as proteasome inhibitors in human prostate cancer cells.

TL;DR: It is found that quinoline thiosemicarbazone 2 was the most potent and inhibited proteosome activity in intact human prostate cancer PC-3 and LNCaP cells (IC50 of 4 and 3.2 microM, respectively) compared to clioquinol and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, molecular characterization, and biological activity of novel synthetic derivatives of chromen-4-one in human cancer cells.

TL;DR: In vitro evaluation of copper complexes against hormone-independent and metastatic breast and prostate cancer cells revealed that 7 was the most potent compound which exhibited PKB (Akt protein) inhibitory activities and caused NF-kappaB inactivation in a well-established orthotopic pancreatic tumor model using COLO 357 cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Down-regulation of androgen receptor by 3,3'-diindolylmethane contributes to inhibition of cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis in both hormone-sensitive LNCaP and insensitive C4-2B prostate cancer cells.

TL;DR: The results suggest that B-DIM-induced cell proliferation inhibition and apoptosis induction are partly mediated through the down-regulation of AR, Akt, and NF-kappaB signaling in hormone-sensitive and hormone-insensitive prostate cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Down-regulation of Jagged-1 induces cell growth inhibition and S phase arrest in prostate cancer cells

TL;DR: This article has been retracted at the request of the editor‐in‐Chief and co‐author because of a lack of original research.
