Pair Name | Withaferin A, Sorafenib | |||
Disease Info | [ICD-11: 2D10.Z] | Thyroid cancer | Investigative | |
Biological Phenomena | Induction-->Apoptosis | |||
Gene Regulation | Down-regulation | Phosphorylation | CASP3 | hsa836 |
Down-regulation | Expression | PARP1 | hsa142 | |
In Vitro Model | B-CPAP | Poorly differentiated thyroid gland carcinoma | Homo sapiens (Human) | CVCL_0153 |
SW1736 | Thyroid gland anaplastic carcinoma | Homo sapiens (Human) | CVCL_3883 | |
Result | Combination therapy with sorafenib + withaferin showed synergistic efficacy in papillary and anaplastic cancers in vitro with significant induction of apoptosis. This combination achieved potent anticancer activity with lower overall doses of sorafenib, indicating a potential strategy to decrease sorafenib toxicity in future translational studies. |
