Abstract:
:A report that effects of butyrate on some cells may be mediated by activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) prompted this study which examines if other AMPK activators can induce differentiation and inhibit proliferation of colon cancer cells in a manner similar to butyrate. Using induction of alkaline phosphatase as a marker, it was observed that compound C, an AMPK inhibitor, is able to reduce the differentiating effect of butyrate on SW1116 and Caco-2 colon cancer cells. Metformin was observed to be less effective than butyrate in the induction of alkaline phosphatase but was more effective as a growth inhibitor. Phenformin was found to be a more potent growth inhibitor than metformin and both compounds cause acidification of the medium when incubated with colon cancer cells. Combined incubation of 2-deoxyglucose with either of the biguanides prevented the acidification of the medium but enhanced the growth inhibitory effects.

杂志文章abstract::K-ras-NIH3T3 cells were more invasive than NIH3T3 cells in a chemotactic invasion assay. Conophylline, a new vinca alkaloid isolated as a ras function inhibitor, inhibited the invasion of K-ras-NIH3T3 cells, while it showed no effect on NIH3T3 cells. Conophylline did not increase expression of fibronectin but induced ...
