Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 1999;(2):90-
OJECTIVE:To explore whether EGb761 could protect against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity, and whether it affects on doxorubicin antitumor activity. METHOD: Doxorubicin-induced rat heart mitochondria damage in vitro and doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in mice were used. The cardiotoxicity were evaluated via spectrophotography, electromicrography and other methods.RESULTS: Doxorubicin markedly induced malondialdehyde formation, adenosine 5′-triphosphatase activity loss, membrane rigidification, swelling, disintegration and lysis of rat heart mitochondria in vitro, all the above pathological and biochemical damages were reduced significantly by EGb761. Cardiotoxicity of doxorubicin in mice as measured by increases of heart Malondialdehyde level and serum creatine phosphokinase activity was significantly alleviated by EGb761. Moreover. The antitumor activity of doxorubicin, as assayed by prolonged life span of mice bearing with H22 hepatoma, was not reduced by EGb761 treatment. CONCLUSION:Ginkgo biloba extract may protect heart against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity without interfering with its antitumor activity in mice.
5.Resistance mechanisms of trastuzumab and treatment strategies in patients with breast cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2012;39(4):274-277
In the treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2) overexpressing breast cancer,some patients have drug resistance to trastuzumab.Potential mechanisms of resistance to trastuzumab include impaired access of trastuzumab to Her-2 ; alternative signaling from insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R),hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR) and so on; aberrant downstream signaling caused by loss of phosphatase and tensin homologs deleted from chromosome 10 (PTEN);phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase catalytic alpha polypeptide gene (PIK3CA) mutation; over-expression of heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) and CD44. Additionally,potential strategies for overcoming resistance to trastuzumab include using new targeted medicines,such as pertuzumab,lapatinib and trastuzumab-DM1.
