Triptonide inhibits growth and metastasis in HCC by suppressing EGFR/PI3K/AKT signaling
This study aimed to examine the anticancer properties of triptonide in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCC cells were administered with triptonide at various levels, and CCK-8 and colony formation assays were carried out for detecting HCC cell proliferation. Then, cell apoptosis and cell cycle distribution were evaluated by flow cytometry. Tumor growth was monitored noninvasively by ultrasound imaging. Cell migration and invasion were quantitated by wound healing and Transwell assays. A metastasis model was established via tail vein injection of HCC cells in nude mice. Immunoblot was performed to quantitate the expre...

Molecules, Vol. 28, Pages 553: Pharmacokinetic Study of Triptolide Nanocarrier in Transdermal Drug Delivery System & mdash;Combination of Experiment and Mathematical Modeling
This study shows that the three&amp;minus;layer model can be used for transdermal drug delivery system drug diffusion research. Therefore, it is profitable for transdermal drug delivery system design and the optimization of the dosage form. Based on the drug concentration of the in vivo microdialysis measurement technology, the diffusion coefficient of drugs in the skin can be more accurately measured, and the numerical results can be verified. Therefore, the microdialysis technique combined with mathematical modeling provides a very good platform for the further study of transdermal delivery systems. This research wil...

GSE198630 Gene expression of colorectal cancer cells treated with Celastrol or compound 19-048
Contributors : Hao Zhang ; Hongfang Zhao ; Heng Xu ; Cheng LuoSeries Type : Expression profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Homo sapiensAs a terpenoids natural product isolated from the plant Thunder God Vine, Celastrol is widely studied for its pharmacological activities, including anti-tumor activities. However, the clinical application of Celastrol is strictly limited due to its severe side effects. Without identification and validation of the target protein of Celastrol, it is difficult to determine whether its anti-tumor activities and side effects are due to inhibition of the same protein. Using a ne...
