DIM-C-pPhtBu induces apoptosis in various cancer cell lines; induces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in KB cancer cells.
DIM-C-pPhtBu, similar to other C-DIMs, exhibits a broad range of anticancer and antitumorigenic activities against multiple tumor types. DIM-C-pPhtBu causes apoptotic cell death of KB cells by activation of endoplasmic reticulum stress through induction of CHOP protein that is associated with the apoptosis in human oral cancer cells. Also it appears to induce an autophagic cell death in drug-resistant ER-negative breast tumors.
Despite technological advances in cancer treatment, the survival rate of patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) has not improved significantly. Many studies have shown that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-related signals are associated with mitochondrial damage and that these signals
