Hide/Show
Combination Pair ID: 23
Pair Name Lycorine, Bortezomib
Partner Name Bortezomib
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2A83] Multiple myeloma Investigative
Biological Phenomena Inhibition-->Autophagy
Gene Regulation Down-regulation Phosphorylation BCL2 hsa596
Down-regulation Expression BECN1 hsa8678
Down-regulation Expression HMGB1 hsa3146
Down-regulation Expression MAP1LC3B hsa81631
Down-regulation Phosphorylation MAP2K7 hsa5609
Down-regulation Phosphorylation MAPK1 hsa5594
In Vitro Model ARH-77 Plasma cell myeloma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_1072
MM1.S Plasma cell myeloma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_8792
NCI-H929 Plasma cell myeloma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_1600
In Vivo Model The mice were subcutaneously inoculated in the flank with 5×10⁶ MM.1S cells in 100 µl of phosphate-buffered saline.
Result We observed higher HMGB1 expression in bortezomib resistant cells and the combination of bortezomib plus lycorine was highly efficient in vitro and in vivo myeloma models as well as in re-sensitizing resistant cells to bortezomib. These observations indicate lycorine as an effective autophagy inhibitor and reveal that lycorine alone or in combination with bortezomib is a potential therapeutic strategy.
Combination Pair ID: 24
Pair Name Lycorine, Temozolomide
Partner Name Temozolomide
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2A00] Glioblastoma multiforme Investigative
Biological Phenomena Induction-->ROS generation
Gene Regulation Up-regulation Expression IKBKE hsa9641
Down-regulation Phosphorylation RELA hsa5970
In Vitro Model C6 Rat malignant glioma Rattus norvegicus (Rat) CVCL_0194
Result Our study suggested that lycorine exerts an anti-glioma effect by inducing ROS production and inhibiting NF-κB, which validated that lycorine may be a potential candidate for glioma treatment alone or in combination with TMZ.
