    Abstract Background: Temozolomide (TMZ) has been widely used to treat glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). However, many mechanisms are known to quickly adapt GBM cells to chemotherapy with TMZ, leading to drug resistance and expansion of tumor cell populations.
    Methods: We subjected human glioblastoma cell lines and an animal model of glioblastoma xenografts with TMZ-based adjuvant treatments to evaluate the synergistic effect of cinnamophilin (CINN), a free radical scavenger.
    Results: Our results showed that the combined treatment of CINN and TMZ potentiated the anticancer effect and apoptotic cell death in glioma cell lines and enhanced antitumor action in glioma xenografts. TMZ induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) burst and elevated G2 arrest in glioma cells. The CINN-suppressed ROS burst in TMZ-treated glioma cells might be associated with increased apoptosis, as indicated by the upregulation of TUNEL-positive glioma cells. CINN-pretreated glioma cells exhibited increased cyclin B expression and reduced phosphorylation of Cdk1, suggesting reduced G2 arrest in the combined treatment group. Moreover, CINN lowered the protein level of LC3, a hallmark of autophagy, in TMZ-treated cells.
    Conclusions: These findings suggest that CINN may restore TMZ toxicity in glioma cancer by suppressing the ROS/G2 arrest pathway.

    Abstract Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a multifactorial issue in cancer treatment. Drug efflux transporters, particularly P-glycoprotein (P-gp), are major contributors to such resistance. In the present study, we evaluated the P-gp-inhibiting and MDR-reversing effects of two compounds, namely rhein, an anthraquinone, and diacerein, the acetylated prodrug of rhein. ABCB1/Flp-In-293 was used as a model for investigating the related molecular mechanisms, and the multi-drug-resistant cancer cell line KB/VIN was used as a platform for evaluating the reversal of MDR0. The results indicated that at a concentration of 2.5 μM, both diacerein and rhein significantly inhibited P-gp efflux function. They also downregulated P-gp expression by interacting with the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3. Further investigation of the inhibitory mechanism of these compounds revealed that both stimulated P-gp ATPase activity dose dependently and engaged in the noncompetitive inhibition of rhodamine 123 efflux. Furthermore, rhein was revealed to be a potent reverser of MDR in cancer, and the combination of 30 μM rhein and 1000 nM vincristine exerted a strong synergistic effect, achieving a high combination index (CI) of 0.092. Diacerein demonstrated potential applications as a selective cytotoxic agent against multi-drug-resistant cancer cells at a concentration of > 18.92 μM and as a mild MDR reverser at doses of < 10 μM. In conclusion, diacerein and rhein are potential candidates for P-gp inhibition and MDR reversal in cancer cells.

    Abstract Multidrug resistance (MDR), for which the mechanisms are not yet fully clear, is one of the major obstacles to cancer treatment. In recent years, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) were found to be one of the important MDR mechanism pathways. Based on the previous research, zhankuic acid A, B, and C were found to have collateral sensitivity effects on MDR cancer cells, and MDR inhibitory activity of zhankuic acid methyl ester was found to be better than that of its acid. Therefore, we executed a systematic examination of the structure-activity relationship of zhankuic acid methyl ester derivatives to collateral sensitivity in MDR cancer cells. The results showed that compound

    Abstract Seven new anthraquinones with rare 2-isopropyldihydrofuran (1–3) and 2,2-dimethylpyrano (4–7) moieties together with thirty-four known compounds were isolated from the extracts of whole Hedyotis diffusa plants. Their structures were elucidated and established by various spectroscopic and spectrometric analytical methods. Among these isolates, selected compounds were examined for their anti-inflammatory activity. The results showed that rare substituted anthraquinones displayed potent inhibitory activity with IC₅₀ values ranging from 0.15 ± 0.01 to 5.52 ± 1.59 µM on the N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine/cytochalasin B (fMLP/CB)-induced superoxide anion generation and elastase release cellular models. Meanwhile, the proposed drug target of the active anthraquinone was studied by computer modeling. The binding affinity between the anti-inflammatory anthraquinone and elastase was evaluated by molecular docking. These results provided the scientific insight into the medicinal values of Hedyotis diffusa and vision of development as lead compounds.
