2023 · Treatment response
Berberine, a well-known isoquinoline alkaloid derivative, has a varied range of pharmacological effects.
2024 · Metastasis and invasion
The anti-proliferative and anti-metastatic effects of berberine on ovarian cancer cells were investigated using CCK-8 assays, scratch assays, EDU proliferation assays, and assays related to glycolysis and autophagy.
2023 · Apoptosis and cell death
CCK-8 was used to detect curcumin and derivative IC50, crystalline violet staining was used to detect the proliferation inhibition effect of NL01 in ovarian cancer, western blot and qPCR were used to detect downstream related molecular expression changes, Transwell and survival curve assays were used to detect malignant phenotypic.
2026 · Metastasis and invasion
Our results demonstrated that curcumin inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion of SK-OV-3 and A2780 cells in a dose-dependent manner, while inducing apoptosis and ferroptosis, as evidenced by elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS), MDA, Fe2+ levels, and depletion of GSH.
2021 · Apoptosis and cell death
Circ-PLEKHM3 overexpression exacerbated the effect of curcumin on ovarian cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis, as well as anti-tumor effect.
2025 · Metastasis and invasion
Curcumin has been shown to effectively inhibit the proliferation and invasion of ovarian cancer cells but its bioavailability restricts its application.
2022 · Treatment response
The study reports rETRACTION NOTICE: Curcumin and resveratrol inhibit chemoresistance in cisplatin-resistant epithelial ovarian cancer cells via targeting P13K pathway.
2023 · Cancer biology and response
Fenbendazole (FZ) has potential anti-cancer effects, but its poor water solubility limits its use for cancer therapy.
2024 · Apoptosis and cell death
Here, we investigated the anticancer effects of fenbendazole (FBZ), a benzimidazole compound, on the regulation of apoptosis and mitotic catastrophe in A2780 and SKOV3 human epithelial ovarian cancer cells.
2025 · Metastasis and invasion
Silencing of SQLE attenuated the inhibitory effects of 20(S)-Rg3 on ovarian cancer cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo, as well as cell migration, invasion, and cholesterol synthesis.
2023 · Treatment response
When the drugs were combined and assessed in cell growth assays, ivermectin showed synergy with pitavastatin in 3 cell lines and this was most evident in COV-318 cells (combination index ~ 0.6).
2024 · Metabolism and redox biology
Because melatonin (Mel) has antitumor actions, we investigated its impact on energy metabolism and kinase signaling in OC cells (SKOV-3 and CAISMOV-24).
2022 · Immune and inflammatory signaling
We conclude that melatonin significantly alters the proteome of SKOV-3 cells by changing proteins involved with the immune response and mitochondrial metabolism.
2023 · Cancer biology and response
Local therapeutic intervention with a broad spectrum of antibiotics was effective in reversing microbiota dysbiosis and suppressing carcinogenic progression.
2022 · Treatment response
Cecal transplants of microbiota derived from control-treated mice was sufficient to ameliorate chemoresistance and prolong survival of ABX-treated mice, indicative of a gut-derived tumor suppressor.
2025 · Treatment response
Recent research indicates that gut, vaginal, and uterine microbiota play a critical role in the response to treatments of ovarian cancer, and particularly in chemotherapy, anti-angiogenic therapy, and PARP inhibitors.
2022 · Cancer biology and response
The study by Chambers and colleagues in this issue of Cancer Research provides mechanistic insights into how disrupting the gut microbiome with broad-spectrum antibiotics negatively influences the survival of patients with ovarian cancer and highlights the impact of the gut microbiome on tumor progression and response to therapy.
2025 · Metastasis and invasion
In vitro experiments demonstrated that quercetin effectively inhibited the proliferation, apoptosis resistance, invasion, and migration of cisplatin-resistant EOC cells.
2025 · Apoptosis and cell death
Quercetin(QR) has been shown to inhibit the cell cycle and induce the apoptosis in various types of tumors.
2026 · Apoptosis and cell death
Quercetin inhibited cell proliferation and colony formation, triggered apoptosis, and promoted ferroptosis in A2780 and SKOV3 cells, marked by GPX4 downregulation and malondialdehyde levels increase.
2024 · Treatment response
This study investigated the synergistic effects of quercetin and paclitaxel on ovarian cancer.
2022 · Immune and inflammatory signaling
Significantly, combined resveratrol and PD-1 blockade promote anti-tumor efficacy.
2022 · Tumor growth and proliferation
Here, we report that Silybin (a nontoxic flavonoid commonly used for liver protection) exhibits prominent anti-tumor effects on human ovarian cancer cells.
