Hide/Show
Combination Pair ID: 560
Pair Name Fucoxanthin, TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand
Partner Name TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2C77] Cervical cancer Investigative
Biological Phenomena Induction-->Apoptosis
Gene Regulation Down-regulation Phosphorylation AKT1 hsa207
Up-regulation Expression BAX hsa581
Down-regulation Expression BCL2 hsa596
Up-regulation Cleavage CASP3 hsa836
Down-regulation Expression RELA hsa5970
In Vitro Model HeLa Human papillomavirus-related cervical adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_0030
SiHa Human papillomavirus-related cervical squamous cell carcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_0032
Ca Ski Human papillomavirus-related cervical squamous cell carcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_1100
Result We found that fucoxanthin- or TRAIL-induced apoptosis of human cervical cancer cells was obviously down-regulated. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, these findings suggest that fucoxanthin and TRAIL increased the apoptosis in human cervical cancer cells by targeting the PI3K/Akt/NF-κB signaling pathway.
Combination Pair ID: 561
Pair Name Fucoxanthin, Doxorubicin
Partner Name Doxorubicin
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2C12] Hepatocellular carcinoma Investigative
Biological Phenomena Induction-->Apoptosis
Gene Regulation Down-regulation Expression ABCB1 hsa5243
Down-regulation Expression ABCG2 hsa9429
Up-regulation Activity CASP3 hsa836
Up-regulation Activity CASP8 hsa841
Down-regulation Expression CD9 hsa928
Down-regulation Activity CYP3A4 hsa1576
Down-regulation Activity GSTT1 hsa2952
Up-regulation Activity TP53 hsa7157
In Vitro Model NCI-ADR-RES High grade ovarian serous adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_1452
Hep-G2 Hepatoblastoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_0027
SK-OV-3 Ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_0532
Result The carotenoid fucoxanthin can sensitize multidrug resistant cancer cells to doxorubicin via induction of apoptosis, inhibition of multidrug resistance proteins and metabolic enzymes
Combination Pair ID: 914
Pair Name Fucoxanthin, Gemcitabine
Partner Name Gemcitabine
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2C10] Pancreatic cancer Investigative
Biological Phenomena Induction-->Apoptosis
In Vitro Model MIA PaCa-2 Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_0428
PANC-1 Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_0480
Result Fucoxanthin improved the cytotoxicity of gemcitabine on human pancreatic cancer cells at concentrations that were not cytotoxic to non-cancer cells. Thus, fucoxanthin has the potential to be used as an adjunct in pancreatic cancer treatment.
Combination Pair ID: 915
Pair Name Fucoxanthin, TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand
Partner Name TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2C77] Cervical cancer Investigative
Gene Regulation Down-regulation Phosphorylation AKT1 hsa207
Down-regulation Phosphorylation PIK3CA hsa5290
In Vitro Model Ca Ski Human papillomavirus-related cervical squamous cell carcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_1100
In Vivo Model Five-week-old nude BALB/c mice were used for subcutaneous implantation of human cervical tumor cells HeLa (2×10⁶ per site).
Result The findings of this study suggest that the combined use of fucoxanthin and TRAIL might be a useful strategy against TRAIL-resistant cervical cancer.
Combination Pair ID: 916
Pair Name Fucoxanthin, Fluorouracil
Partner Name Fluorouracil
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2B90] Colon cancer Investigative
Biological Phenomena Induction-->DNA damage and cell death
In Vitro Model HCT 116 Colon carcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_0291
HT-29 Colon adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_0320
Result Since Phloroglucinol and Fucoxanthin alone reduced cancer cell line viability without an effect on normal cells and when in combination enhanced the cytotoxic effect of 5-Fu only in colon cancer cells
