Combination Pair ID: 81
Pair Name Nobiletin, Bicalutamide
Partner Name Bicalutamide
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2C82] Prostate cancer Investigative
Biological Phenomena Induction-->Apoptosis
Gene Regulation Down-regulation Expression MAPK1 hsa5594
Down-regulation Expression NFKB1 hsa4790
Down-regulation Expression STAT3 hsa6774
In Vitro Model VCaP Prostate carcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_2235
PC-3 Prostate carcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_0035
Result NBT and BCT combination reduced key cellular signaling regulators including: p-Erk/Erk, p-STAT3/STAT3 and NF-κB. Overall, these results suggest that NBT combination with BCT may be an effective treatment for prostate cancer.
Combination Pair ID: 82
Pair Name Nobiletin, Palbociclib
Partner Name Palbociclib
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2C90.0] Renal cell carcinoma Investigative
Biological Phenomena Induction-->Blockade of cell cycle in G0/G1 phase
Gene Regulation Up-regulation Expression BAX hsa581
Down-regulation Expression BCL2 hsa596
Down-regulation Phosphorylation CDK2 hsa1017
Down-regulation Expression CDKN1A hsa1026
Down-regulation Expression PSMD9 hsa5715
Down-regulation Phosphorylation RB1 hsa5925
Down-regulation Expression SKP2 hsa6502
In Vivo Model A total of 2×10⁶ 786-O cells were mixed 1:1 with Matrigel (BD Biosciences) in a total volume of 200 μL, and were injected subcutaneously into the right flank side of nude mice.
Result Nobiletin downregulates the SKP2-p21/p27-CDK2 axis to inhibit tumor progression and shows synergistic effects with palbociclib on renal cell carcinoma
Combination Pair ID: 642
Pair Name Nobiletin, Sorafenib
Partner Name Sorafenib
Disease Info [ICD-11: 2C82] Prostate cancer Investigative
Biological Phenomena Induction-->Blockade of cell cycle in G0/G1 phase
Gene Regulation Up-regulation Expression BAX hsa581
Up-regulation Expression CDKN1A hsa1026
Up-regulation Expression RB1 hsa5925
In Vitro Model PC-3 Prostate carcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_0035
Result NOB and SOR combination was more effective than SOR and NOB alone and reduced the exposure time for SOR and NOB in PC-3 cells. Combination strategy is a therapeutic potential to improve efficacy and reduce side-effect of SOR for the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer cells.

NCI-H82 Lung small cell carcinoma Homo sapiens (Human) CVCL_1591
In Vivo Model A subcutaneous injection of 5×10⁶ H82 cells was administered into the right flank of each BALB/c nude mouse.
Result The combination of nobiletin with vorinostat increased histone H3K9 and H3K27 acetylation levels in SCLC mouse tumor tissue and enhanced the expression of the BH3-only proteins BIM and BID. We conclude that nobiletin is a novel natural BH3 mimetic that can cooperate with vorinostat to induce apoptosis and autophagy in SCLC.
