Background: Bromelain enhances anticancer impacts to chemotherapeutic agents. The question as to whether bromelain does promote in-vitro cytotoxic and proapoptotic effects of cisplatin on human prostatic carcinoma PC3 cell line was investigated. Materials and Methods: PC3 (human prostatic carcinoma) cells were treated either single or in combination with bromelain and/or cisplatin. MTT, clonogenic assay, flow cytometry and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction were used to investigate cell viability, colony formation, proapoptotic potential and p53 gene expression, respectively. Results: Cisplatin (IC10) combined with bromelain (IC40) significantly affected PC3 cell viability, inhibited colony formation, as well increased p53 proapoptotic gene expression compared to cisplatin single treatment. Nevertheless, bromelain-cisplatin chemoherbal combination did not display any additive proapoptotic effect compared to single treatments. Conclusion: Bromelain-cisplatin chemoherbal combination demonstrated synergistic in-vitro anticancer effect on human prostatic carcinoma cell line, PC3, that drastically reduced required cisplatin dose.

The core-shell method is used as a novel synthetic process of micronized Ti-Zeolite Na-A which involves calcination at 700°C of coated Egyptian Kaolin with titanium tetrachloride in acidic medium as the first step. The produced Ti-coated metakaolinite is subjected to microwave irradiation at low temperature of 80°C for 2 h. The prepared micronized Ti-containing Zeolites-A (Ti-Z-A) is characterized by FTIR, XRF, XRD, SEM, and EDS elemental analysis. Ag-exchanged form of Ti-Z-Ag is also prepared and characterized. The Wt% of silver exchanged onto the Ti-Zeolite structure was determined by atomic absorption spectra. Thein vitrocytotoxic activity of Ti-Z-Ag against human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (HePG2), colon cell line carcinoma (HCT116), lung carcinoma cell line (A549), and human Caucasian breast adenocarcinoma (MCF7) is reported. The results were promising and revealed that the exchanged Ag form of micronized Ti-Zeolite-A can be used as novel antitumor drug.

Abstract Purpose We investigated the cytosolic and membrane-associated contents of polyphenols after 4 hours of incubation (50 μM of each polyphenol) in the colon carcinoma cell line T84 using a novel, rapid, and convenient method based on permeabilization of the cell membrane using digitonin. The colon carcinoma cell line was used to investigate the intestinal uptake of polyphenols present in apple products. Recent Findings The results showed that hydroxycinnamic acids (caffeic and 5-caffeoylquinic acid) were only detected in the cytosolic fractions. In contrast, 0.3 to 8.2% of the initial concentrations (50 μM) of the flavonoids phloretin, quercetin, phloretin 2′-O-glucoside, and quercetin 3-O-rhamnoside were found in the membrane-associated fractions. In the cytosolic fractions, 0.2–2.9% of these compounds were detected, corresponding to 25 to 40% of the total cell-associated (cytosolic plus membrane-associated fractions) polyphenol content. Summary Our results showed that after uptake, polyphenols were present in the cytosolic fraction of the cells as well as associated with the cell membrane. The presented method provides a useful in vitro tool for determining biologically active compounds in cellular fractions.
