We have previously shown that H-ras, but N-ras, induces an invasiveness and cell motility in human breast epithelial cells (MCFl0A), while both H-ras and N-ras induce transformed phenotype. It has been recently shown that phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) plays an important role on cell migration. In the present study, we wished to investigate the functional role of PI3K in H-ras-induced invasive phenotype in MCF10A cells.(omitted)

D-pinitol is an analog of 3-methoxy-D-chiro-inositol found in beans and plants. D-pinitol has anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, and anticancer effects. Additionally, D-pinitol induces apoptosis and inhibits metastasis in breast and prostate cancers. However, to date, no study has investigated the anticancer effects of D-pinitol in oral cancer. Therefore, in this study, whether the anticancer effects of D-pinitol induce apoptosis, inhibit the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and arrest cell cycle was investigated in squamous epithelial cells. D-pinitol decreased the survival and cell proliferation rates of CAL-27 and Ca9-22 oral squamous carcinoma cells in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Evidence of apoptosis, including nuclear condensation, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase, and caspase-3 fragmentation, was also observed. D-pinitol inhibited the migration and invasion of both cell lines. In terms of EMT-related proteins, E-cadherin was increased, whereas N-cadherin, Snail, and Slug were decreased. D-pinitol also decreased the expression of cyclin D1, a protein involved in the cell cycle, but increased the expression of p21, a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor. Hence, D-pinitol induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in CAL-27 and Ca9-22 cells, demonstrating an anticancer effect by decreasing the EMT.

Extracts of Artemisia asiatica Nakai (Asteraceae) have been shown to have anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative activities. Eupatilin (5,7-dihydroxy-3,4,6-tri-methoxy-flavone), one of the pharmacologically active ingredients derived from Artemisia asiatica, has been shown to induce apoptosis in promyelocytic leukemia (HL-60) cells.

Abnormal regulation of the inducible form of cyclooxygenase (COX-2) has been often observed in various types of cancerous and transformed cells. Recently, targeted inhibition of COX-2 is recognized as one of the promising strategies for the prevention or treatment of cancer as well as inflammation, As part of a program to evaluate the cancer chemopreventive potential of anti-inflammatory phytochemicals, we initially determined the COX-2 inhibitory activity of some naturally occurring diarylheptanoids structurally related to curcumin.(omitted)

Many studies have identified the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) as a key regulator for various cellular functions including cell survival, growth and motility. We have previously shown that H-ras, but not N-ras. induces invasiveness and motility in human breast epithelial cells (MCF10A), while both H-ras and N-ras induce transformed phenotype. In the present study, we wished to investigate the functional role of PI3K pathway in H-ra-induced invasive phenotype and motility of MCF10A cells. (omitted)

Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF)는 염증성장 질환과 대장암을 유발하며 아연 의존성 metalloprotease인 B. fragilis toxin (BFT)를 분비한다. BFT는 epithelial cell의 E-cadherin을 80 kDa ectodomain과 33 kDa intracellular domain으로 분절을 유도한다. 생성된 E-cadherin intracellular domain은 순차적으로 γ-secretase에 의해 분절되어 28 kDa E-cadherin intracellular fragment은 아직까지 밝혀지지 않는 기작으로 분해된다. 본 연구에서는 BFT 유도 E-cadherin 분절로 인해 생성된 28 kDa E-cadherin intracellular fragment는 proteasome에 의해서 분해된다는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 BFT 유도 E-cadherin 분절 기작이 대장암 세포가 아닌 인간 유방암 세포주 BT-474 세포에서도 동일한 기작으로 일어남을 확인하였다. 마지막으로 staurosporine은 인간 유방암 세포주 MCF7 세포에서 E-cadherin의 분절을 유도하고 γ-secretase에 의한 E-cadherin intracellular domain의 분절이 일어났으나 proteasome에 의한 분해는 일어나지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 ETBF가 서식하는 대장이 아닌 유방에서도 BFT에 의한 E-cadherin 분절이 일어날 수 있으며 ETBF가 대장암 이외의 다른 암에도 관여할 수 있음을 시사한다.
