Background: Recent studies reported that resveratrol can induce apoptosis in cancer cells
and also sensitize them to anticancer drugs. Paclitaxel is an effective chemotherapeutic …

The efficacy of cisplatin (CIS) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) against squamous cell carcinomas of
the head and neck (SCCHN) remains restricted due to their severe toxic side effects on non …

A novel inhibitor of the NF-κB pathway, caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), was found to
induce apoptosis in microscopic tumors derived from a metastatic ovarian carcinoma cell …

We observed that free bile acids (CA, DCA, and CDCA) inhibited the growth of
cholangiocarcinoma cells by promoting cell apoptosis, while the conjugated bile acids …

Background: Angiogenesis or new blood vessel formation is essential for the growth,
progression and metastasis of malignant tumors. Among the several pro-angiogenic factors …

Objective: To investigate the effect of baicalin (BC) on the proliferation of human
cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) cell lines, QBC939 and RBE, and its underlying mechanism …

3133 Background: Several important survival molecules such as NF-κB and Bcl-XL are
highly activated in pancreas cancer. NF-κB is responsible for transcriptional activation of …

Deoxycholic acid (DCA) has been implicated in colorectal carcinogenesis in humans with
effects on proliferation and apoptosis, mediated at least in part by activation of transcription …

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is the second most frequent primary liver neoplasia. It mainly
arises from the malignant transformation of biliary epithelial cells, although it might originate …

Epidemiologic studies show that increased dietary intake or higher blood levels of one
specific carotenoid, beta-cryptoxanthin (BCX), is strongly associated with a reduced risk of …
