Inhibitory effects of Paris saponin I, II, VI and VII on HUVEC cells through regulation of VEGFR2, PI3K/AKT/mTOR, Src/eNOS, PLCγ/ERK/MERK, and JAK2-STAT3 pathways.

TL;DR: Evaluation of the anti-angiogenic properties of the four saponins in Rhizoma Paris on vascular endothelial cells-HUVEC cells shows that, with increases in concentrations of PSI, PSII, PSVI and PSVII, the viability of HUV EC cells decreased significantly, and the mechanism was investigated to investigate the underlying mechanism.

Injectable shear-thinning polylysine hydrogels for localized immunotherapy of gastric cancer through repolarization of tumor-associated macrophages.

TL;DR: In this paper, a shear-thinning, injectable hydrogel co-loaded with polyphyllin II (PP2) and resiquimod (R848) (PR-Gel) was developed for potentiating localized immunotherapy of gastric cancer through the repolarization of TAMs.

Activation of FOXO3 pathway is involved in polyphyllin I-induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in human bladder cancer cells

TL;DR: Findings suggested that PPI exerted a cytotoxic effect in vitro and an antitumor activity in vivo against BCa partly by activating FOXO3 signaling pathway, and may serve as a promising chemotherapy agent for BCa treatment.

Activation of Apoptosis Signalling Pathways by Reactive Oxygen Species

TL;DR: ROS play a central role in cell signalling as well as in regulation of the main pathways of apoptosis mediated by mitochondria, death receptors and the endoplasmic reticulum, and current understanding of the role of ROS in each of these three main pathways is focused on.

Modulating ROS to overcome multidrug resistance in cancer.

TL;DR: The critical and targetable redox-regulating enzymes, including mitochondrial electron transport chain complexes, NADPH oxidases (NOXs), enzymes related to glutathione metabolism, glutamate/cystine antiporter xCT, thioredoxin reductases (TrxRs), nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), and their roles in regulating cellular ROS levels, drug resistance as well as their clinical significance are discussed.
