Efficacy of Cannabidiol Combination with Cisplatin or Paclitaxel against Platinum-Resistant Ovarian Cancer Cell Lines by Ismail, Jana

“…Monotherapy with CBD demonstrated a dose-dependent tumor growth inhibition at 72h, with the IC50 being 12.5 μg/ml for OVCAR-3 cell line and 12.3 μg/ml for SK-OV-3 cell line. The IC50 of cisplatin against OVCAR-3 and SK-OV-3 cell lines (1.1 and 3.3 μg/ml, respectively), and that of paclitaxel against SK-OV-3 cell line (9.9 μg/ml) were obtained as well. …”

Sanguinarine Induces Apoptosis Pathway in Multiple Myeloma Cell Lines via Inhibition of the JaK2/STAT3 Signaling by Sabah Akhtar (5809925)

“…In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic activities of SNG in a panel of MM cell lines (U266, IM9, MM1S, and RPMI-8226). SNG treatment of MM cells resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in cell viability through mitochondrial membrane potential loss and activation of caspase 3, 9, and cleavage of PARP. …”
