Combination Pair ID: 239

Ref_1

Pair Name	Alantolactone, Oxaliplatin
Partner Name	Oxaliplatin
Disease Info	[ICD-11: 2B90.Z]	Colon cancer		Investigative
Biological Phenomena	Induction-->ROS accumulation
Gene Regulation	Up-regulation	Expression	ROS1	hsa6098
	Up-regulation	Phosphorylation	MAPK8	hsa5599
	Up-regulation	Phosphorylation	MAPK14	hsa1432
In Vitro Model	HCT 116	Colon carcinoma	Homo sapiens (Human)	CVCL_0291
In Vitro Model	RKO	Colon carcinoma	Homo sapiens (Human)	CVCL_0504
In Vivo Model	HCT116 cells (5×10⁶) in 0.1 mL PBS was inject subcutaneously into the right flank of each mouse.
Result	These results suggest that the combination treatment with ALT and oxaliplatin may become a potential therapeutic strategy for colon cancer.

Combination Pair ID: 240

Ref_2

Pair Name	Alantolactone, Erlotinib
Partner Name	Erlotinib
Disease Info	[ICD-11: 2C10.Z]	Pancreatic cancer		Investigative
Gene Regulation	Down-regulation	Expression	STAT3	hsa6774
In Vitro Model	PANC-1	Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma	Homo sapiens (Human)	CVCL_0480
	BxPC-3	Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma	Homo sapiens (Human)	CVCL_0186
	AsPC-1	Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma	Homo sapiens (Human)	CVCL_0152
In Vivo Model	BxPC-3 cells (1×10⁶) in 0.1 mLPBS were injected subcutaneously into the right flank of eachmouse.
Result	Our results suggested that Alantolactone could sensitize human pancreatic cancer cells to EGFR inhibitors possibly through down-regulating the STAT3 signaling. Alantolactone, when combined with other EGFR targeted agents, could be further developed as a potential therapy for pancreatic cancer.
