Co-Inhibition of P-gp and Hsp90 by an Isatin-Derived Compound Contributes to the Increase of the Chemosensitivity of MCF7/ADR-Resistant Cells to Doxorubicin

Ashraf N. Abdalla et al.

Summary: The present study investigated the cytotoxic, chemosensitizing, and apoptotic effects of a compound called HAA(2021) on breast cancer cells and breast cancer cells resistant to doxorubicin. The study also explored the binding mode of HAA(2021) with P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) and its contribution to chemosensitization. The results showed that when combined with doxorubicin, HAA(2021) synergistically inhibited proliferation and induced significant apoptosis in breast cancer cells. It also increased the chemosensitization of resistant cells to doxorubicin. Furthermore, molecular modeling studies revealed that HAA(2021) binds to P-gp and Hsp90, leading to inhibition of the MDR efflux pump and increased chemosensitization.

Ammar Bader et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the chemical diversity of essential oils from flowers and leaves of Achillea ligustica All. collected from different Mediterranean locations. The results showed that geographical variability influenced the compositions of the essential oils, with unique observed chemotypes and high degree of diversity among samples from different areas. Sample 8 was found to be a potential source of fragranol and fragranyl acetate, which could have applications in the insecticidal and pheromone industries.

Global cancer statistics 2020: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries

Hyuna Sung et al.

Summary: The global cancer burden in 2020 saw an estimated 19.3 million new cancer cases and almost 10.0 million cancer deaths. Female breast cancer surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, while lung cancer remained the leading cause of cancer death. These trends are expected to rise in 2040, with transitioning countries experiencing a larger increase compared to transitioned countries due to demographic changes and risk factors associated with globalization and a growing economy. Efforts to improve cancer prevention measures and provision of cancer care in transitioning countries will be crucial for global cancer control.

Eugenol-Induced Autophagy and Apoptosis in Breast Cancer Cells via PI3K/AKT/FOXO3a Pathway Inhibition

Mashan L. Abdullah et al.

Summary: The use of eugenol, a phenolic phytochemical extracted from certain essential oils, shows promising anti-cancer effects against triple-negative and HER2-positive breast cancer cells by targeting the caspase pathway and inducing autophagic cell death. Jurat et al. demonstrated that eugenol inhibits cell proliferation, increases protein levels associated with apoptosis, and induces autophagy in cancer cells, suggesting its potential as a natural anti-cancer agent.

Multiple Molecular Mechanisms to Overcome Multidrug Resistance in Cancer by Natural Secondary Metabolites

Mahmoud Zaki El-Readi et al.

Summary: Plant secondary metabolites are commonly used in pharmaceutical agents, especially in cancer therapy, to reduce the doses of chemotherapeutic drugs, enhance cell growth inhibition, avoid side effects, and increase cancer cell sensitivity to chemotherapy. They interact with membrane proteins and nucleic acids, inducing apoptosis to overcome multidrug resistance. Consuming dietary supplements containing secondary metabolites may affect the bioavailability, efficacy, and safety of drugs that are substrates of P-glycoprotein.
