Expression of the platelet-activating factor receptor enhances benzyl isothiocyanate-induced apoptosis in murine and human melanoma cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Melanoma cells often express platelet‑activating factor receptor (PAF‑R), which has been demonstrated to increase metastatic behavior. However, the effect of PAF‑R on the responsiveness of melanoma to naturally occurring cytotoxic agents remains to be ...

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of phenethyl isothiocyanate: implications in breast cancer prevention. [PDF]

open access: yesAAPS J, 2014
Phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC)-a naturally occurring isothiocyanate in cruciferous vegetables-has been extensively studied as a chemopreventive agent in several preclinical species and in humans. Pharmacokinetic features of unchanged PEITC are (I) linear and first-order absorption, (II) high protein binding and capacity-limited tissue distribution ...

Differential induction of apaptosis in human breast cancer cell lines by phenethyl isothiocyanate, a glutathione depleting agent

open access: yes, 2012
Phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) is a naturally occurring electrophile which depletes intracellular glutathione (GSH) levels and triggers accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Advances in Diclofenac Derivatives: Exploring Carborane‐Substituted N‐Methyl and Nitrile Analogs for Anticancer Therapy

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 20, Issue 11, June 2, 2025.
By N‐methylation, the intramolecular lactam formation in carborane‐substituted diclofenac analogs is prevented, yielding a series of open‐chain derivatives alongside with their phenyl analogs exhibiting anticancer activity and thus offering a promising avenue for future drug development. This study explores the anticancer potential of N‐methylated open‐

Lactate dehydrogenases amplify reactive oxygen species in cancer cells in response to oxidative stimuli

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2021
Previous studies demonstrated that superoxide could initiate and amplify LDH-catalyzed hydrogen peroxide production in aqueous phase, but its physiological relevance is unknown. Here we showed that LDHA and LDHB both exhibited hydrogen peroxide-producing
