Effective components of Coptidis Rhizoma and Cinnamomi Cortex in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma and their mechanism of action. (PubMed, Medicine (Baltimore))
Three components (quercetin, oleic acid, tetrandrine) were highlighted as particularly effective...In conclusion, the therapeutic effect of the HL-RG combination against RCC is primarily mediated by its bioactive components, QUE, OA, and TET. These components regulate the HIF-1 signaling pathway, activating genes involved in the cellular response to hypoxia and modulating the expression of proteins that control glucose metabolism, cell proliferation, and angiogenesis.

Exploring the mechanism of Stephania tetrandra S. Moore in the treatment of cisplatin resistance against ovarian cancer through integration of network pharmacology and molecular docking. (PubMed, Medicine (Baltimore))
Cisplatin resistance is a major contributor to treatment failure in ovarian cancer (OC). Molecular dynamics simulations demonstrated that hesperidin, cissamine and tetrandrine exhibited strong binding affinities toward AURKA, vitamin D receptor, and TTK. Future studies are encouraged to focus on the experimental validation of these compounds and delve deeper into the possible mechanisms of drug resistance, aiming to improve their therapeutic effectiveness and real-world applicability.

LSR overexpression induces chemoresistance in triple negative breast cancer cells through MDR1 upregulation and apoptosis attenuation. (PubMed, PLoS One)
MDR1 inhibitor verapamil and MDR1-targeted siRNA were used to evaluate the functional impact of LSR-induced MDR1. In contrast, knockout of LSR expression in MDA-MB-468 cells, which express higher levels of LSR, significantly sensitized the cells to doxorubicin-induced growth inhibition and apoptosis. Our data demonstrated that LSR overexpression promotes TNBC cell proliferation and invasion, and upregulation of MDR1 in these cells renders them resistant to doxorubicin, suggesting that targeting LSR could be a useful strategy to overcome chemoresistance in TNBC.

Phenotypic plasticity including drug efflux drives reversible irinotecan resistance in LIM1215 colorectal cancer cells. (PubMed, FEBS Lett)
Drug screening further indicated that resistant cells maintained under irinotecan pressure exhibited a multidrug-resistant phenotype, while withdrawn cells regained sensitivity, particularly to tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Supplementation with the efflux inhibitor Elacridar partially restored drug sensitivity in resistant cells, emphasizing the role of transporter-mediated efflux in maintaining resistance.

Navigating the blood-brain barrier to blood-brain tumor barrier transition: microvascular P-glycoprotein and CD146 potentially contribute to glioma grading. (PubMed, Fluids Barriers CNS)
P-gp and CD146 represent complementary markers of endothelial identity in gliomas and may serve as histopathological indicators of BBB integrity and tumor vascular remodeling. Their combined evaluation offers a novel insight into the BBB-BBTB transition and may support microvascular phenotyping as an adjunct criterion for glioma grading.

Investigating C7 modified tetrandrine derivatives for synthesis anti-hepatocellular carcinoma activity and mechanistic insights. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
Notably, compound 15 demonstrated significant antiproliferative activity against all tested cell lines, with IC50 values ranging from 3.28 to 6.16 µM, which is superior to the first-line clinical drug 5-fluorouracil. With its remarkable antitumor activity, excellent synthetic process characteristics, and clear apoptosis-inducing mechanism, compound 15 has emerged as a highly promising clinical candidate. This C-7 modification platform provides a viable path for transforming natural product derivatives into clinical therapies for HCC treatment.
