Clinical and Translational Science Institute
Theaflavin-3, 3’-digallate (TF3) is a phenolic compound extracted from black tea. We previously demonstrated that TF3 selectively inhibited ovarian cancer cells. Ovarian cancer has high death rate because of acquired cisplatin resistance. We aimed to investigate the synergistic effect of TF3 and cisplatin (CDDP) against cisplatin resistant ovarian cancer cells. In the present study, combination treatment with TF3 and CDDP showed a synergistic cytotoxic effect in A2780/CP70 and OVCAR3 cells. Combination treatment showed a synergistic pro-apoptotic effect and synergistically induced G1/S phase cell cycle arrest. Synergistic apoptosis was accompanied by regulating protein expression of cleaved caspase 3/7, cytochrome c, Bax …
Theaflavin-3,3'- Digallate Enhances The Inhibitory Effect Of Cisplatin By Regulating The Copper Transporter 1 And Glutathione In Human Ovarian Cancer Cells, Haibo Pan, Eunhye Kim, Gary O. Rankin, Yon Rojanasakul, Youying Tu, Yi Charlie Chen
Theaflavin-3,3'- Digallate Enhances The Inhibitory Effect Of Cisplatin By Regulating The Copper Transporter 1 And Glutathione In Human Ovarian Cancer Cells, Haibo Pan, Eunhye Kim, Gary O. Rankin, Yon Rojanasakul, Youying Tu, Yi Charlie Chen
Clinical and Translational Science Institute
Ovarian cancer has the highest fatality rate among the gynecologic cancers. The side effects, high relapse rate, and drug resistance lead to low long-term survival rate (less than 40%) of patients with advanced ovarian cancer. Theaflavin-3,3′-digallate (TF3), a black tea polyphenol, showed less cytotoxicity to normal ovarian cells than ovarian cancer cells. We aimed to investigate whether TF3 could potentiate the inhibitory effect of cisplatin against human ovarian cancer cell lines. In the present study, combined treatment with TF3 and cisplatin showed a synergistic cytotoxicity against A2780/CP70 and OVCAR3 cells. Treatment with TF3 could increase the intracellular accumulation of platinum …
