03. Combinatorial Therapeutic Effect(s)
Synergistic Effect
Hide/Show
Drug(s) whose efficacy can be enhanced by this phytochemical
Hide/Show
Combination Pair ID: 530
Pair Name Bixin, Dacarbazine
Partner Name Dacarbazine
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2C30] Melanoma Investigative
Biological Phenomena Induction-->Blockade of cell cycle in G2/M phase
Gene Regulation Up-regulation Activity CASP3 hsa836
Up-regulation Expression ROS1 hsa6098
In Vitro Model A2058 Amelanotic melanoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_1059
Result These data suggest that bixin exerts intrinsic antimelanoma activity by mechanisms complementary to those of dacarbazine, encouraging its use in combined therapy for cutaneous melanoma treatment.
Combination Pair ID: 898
Pair Name Bixin, Cisplatin
Partner Name Cisplatin
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2C25] Lung cancer Investigative
Biological Phenomena Induction-->Apoptosis
Gene Regulation Down-regulation Expression ABCC1 hsa4363
Down-regulation Expression ABCC2 hsa1244
Up-regulation Expression TP53 hsa7157
In Vitro Model A-549 Lung adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_0023
Result The administration of bixin or fucoxanthin decreases the expression of ABCC1 and ABCC2. Both carotenoids, either alone or in combination with cisplatin, upregulated p53 gene expression indicating the mechanism of proliferation inhibition and apoptosis occurs via the p53 caspase-independent pathway.
