Expression of glutathione-S-transferases alpha and pi in gastric cancer: a correlation with cisplatin resistance.

TL;DR: A comparison of the drug-sensitivity findings with the results of immunoblotting revealed a weak but interesting correlation between the protein levels of GST-α and CDDP resistance, which could contribute to prediction of the clinical effects of CDDP in patients with gastric cancer.

Influence of phloretin and 6-ketocholestanol on the skin permeation of sodium-fluorescein

TL;DR: The results indicate a positive effect of 6-ketocholestanol on the sodium-fluorescein diffusion in all skin types, whereas phloretin had no significant influence compared to the control in human skin while rat as well as in porcine skin after 30 h of diffusion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigation of the effects of cephalosporin antibiotics on glutathione S-transferase activity in different tissues of rats in vivo conditions in order to drug development research.

TL;DR: The inhibition effects of some antibiotics were investigated against GST obtained from albino-rats kidney, liver, and heart tissues, finding that almost all antibiotic groups of kidney tissues had higher GST activity at all hours than those of control groups, but it was higher only in heart tissues.

The methoxylated flavones eupatorin and cirsiliol induce CYP1 enzyme expression in MCF7 cells.

TL;DR: Two flavones, eupatorin and cirsiliol, enhanced CYP1 enzyme activity in a concentration-dependent manner in MCF7 human breast adenocarcinoma cells and induces CYP 1 enzyme expression in cancer cells and is subsequently converted by CYp1B1 or CYP2A1 into an antiproliferative agent.
