NAUNYN-SCHMIEDEBERG'S ARCHIVES OF PHARMACOLOGY 2024; 397:4961-4979. [PMID: 38180556 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-023-02919-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2023] [Accepted: 12/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024]
Abstract
Sesamol (SM), a well-known component isolated from sesame seeds (Sesamum indicum), used in traditional medicines in treating numerous ailments. However, numerous molecular investigations revealed the various mechanisms behind its activity, emphasizing its antiproliferative, anti-inflammatory, and apoptosis-inducing properties, preventing cancer cell spread to distant organs. In several cells derived from various malignant tissues, SM-regulated signal transduction pathways and cellular targets have been identified. This review paper comprehensively describes the anticancer properties of SM and SM-viable anticancer drugs. Additionally, the interactions of this natural substance with standard anticancer drugs are examined, and the benefits of using nanotechnology in SM applications are explored. This makes SM a prime example of how ethnopharmacological knowledge can be applied to the development of contemporary drugs.

A multi-functional nano-system combining PI3K-110α/β inhibitor overcomes P-glycoprotein mediated MDR and improves anti-cancer efficiency. Cancer Lett 2023; 563:216181. [PMID: 37086953 DOI: 10.1016/j.canlet.2023.216181] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2023] [Revised: 04/08/2023] [Accepted: 04/11/2023] [Indexed: 04/24/2023]
Abstract
P-glycoprotein (P-gp/ABCB1)-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancers severely limit chemotherapeutic efficacy. We recently reported that phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) 110α and 110β subunits can be novel targets for reversal of P-gp mediated MDR in cancers, and BAY-1082439 as an inhibitor specific for PI3K 110α and 110β subunits could reverse P-gp-mediated MDR by downregulating P-gp expression in cancer cells. However, BAY-1082439 has very low solubility, short half-life and high in-vivo clearance rate. Till now, nano-system with the functions to target PI3K P110α and P110β and reverse P-gp mediated MDR in cancers has not been reported. In our study, a tumor targeting drug delivery nano-system PBDF was established, which comprised doxorubicin (DOX) and BAY-1082439 respectively encapsulated by biodegradable PLGA-SH nanoparticles (NPs) that were grafted to gold nanorods (Au NRs) modified with FA-PEG-SH, to enhance the efficacy to reverse P-gp mediated MDR and to target tumor cells, further, to enhance the efficiency to inhibit MDR tumors overexpressing P-gp. In-vitro experiments indicated that PBDF NPs greatly enhanced uptake of DOX, improved the activity to reverse MDR, inhibited the cell proliferation, and induced S-phase arrest and apoptosis in KB-C2 cells, as compared with free DOX combining free BAY-1082439. In-vivo experiments further demonstrated that PBDF NPs improved the anti-tumor ability of DOX and inhibited development of KB-C2 tumors. Notably, the metastasis of KB-C2 cells in livers and lungs of nude mice were inhibited by treatment with PBDF NPs, which showed no obvious in-vitro or in-vivo toxicity.
