Newest firstCancer therapy development increasingly focuses on multi-target approaches to inhibit key proteins involved in tumor growth and angiogenesis. This study explored the potential inhibitory interactions of 110 cannabinoid derivatives using molecular docking simulations against epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 (VEGFR-1), and VEGFR-2. Blind docking with AutoDock Vin…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background: Skin cancer progression is driven by the dysregulation of key oncogenic signaling pathways, including EGFR, BRAF V600E, and TGF-β, which collectively promote tumor proliferation, invasion, and metastatic progression. Targeting these pathways using multitarget natural modulators represents a promising therapeutic strategy. Methods: In this study, forty-nine phytoconstituents from Cannabis sativa were ev…
IntroductionCardiovascular disease (CVD) is an important complication of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Current incident CVD-prediction models use single baseline measurements and achieve moderate performance in people with T2D, with C-indices around 0.7. Modern healthcare registries contain repeated measurements of HbA1c, LDL-cholesterol and eGFR, which could carry incremental predictive value. However, the added value o…
Background Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive subtype lacking targeted therapies, presenting a significant clinical challenge. The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays a crucial role in TNBC progression, making it a promising target for therapeutic intervention. This study investigated the potential of cannabidiol (CBD) as a therapeutic agent that targets EGFR and associated signa…
Open article record in new tab ↗Bioactive compounds derived from natural products demonstrate a wide range of beneficial properties in cancer treatment. One popular approach to inhibiting cancer cell growth is by stimulating apoptosis. Interestingly, our research has discovered that traditional mushroom and isolated compounds from traditional herbs can induce apoptosis in A549 cells while inhibiting tyrosine kinase activities. We have identified…
Open article record in new tab ↗Colorectal cancer (CRC), found in the intestinal tract, is initiated and progresses through various mechanisms, including the dysregulation of signaling pathways. Several signaling pathways, such as EGFR and MAPK, involved in cell proliferation, migration, and apoptosis, are often dysregulated in CRC. Although cannabidiol (CBD) has previously induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in vitro in CRC cell lines, its…
Open article record in new tab ↗Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a member of the ErbB family of proteins and are involved in downstream signal transduction, plays prominent roles in cell growth regulation, proliferation, and the differentiation of many cell types. They are correlated with the stage and severity of cancer. Therefore, EGFRs are targeted proteins for the design of new drugs to treat cancers that overexpress these proteins…
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths among women. Cannabinoid receptor 2 (CNR2 or CB2) is an integral part of the endocannabinoid system. Although CNR2 is highly expressed in the breast cancer tissues as well as breast cancer cell lines, its functional role in breast tumorigenesis is not well understood. We observed that estrogen receptor-α negative (ERα-) breast cancer cells highly express e…
