EpCAM, epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
EpCAM (Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule) is a cell surface protein that plays a significant role in cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. It is primarily expressed in epithelial tissues and is involved in various cellular processes, including the maintenance of tissue architecture and the regulation of cell signaling.
EpCAM is often overexpressed in various types of cancers, including breast, colorectal, prostate, and lung cancers.

431- CUR,    Curcumin suppresses the stemness of non-small cell lung cancer cells via promoting the nuclear-cytoplasm translocation of TAZ

4675- CUR,    Curcumin improves the efficacy of cisplatin by targeting cancer stem-like cells through p21 and cyclin D1-mediated tumour cell inhibition in non-small cell lung cancer cell lines
- in-vitro, NSCLC, A549
ChemoSen↑, we showed that curcumin enhanced the sensitivity of the double-positive (CD166+/EpCAM+) CSC subpopulation in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines (A549 and H2170) to cisplatin-induced apoptosis and inhibition of metastasis.
CSCs↓, Curcumin enhances the sensitivity of the CSC subpopulation of CD166+/EpCAM+ cells to cisplatin-induced apoptosis
EpCAM↓, curcumin enhanced the inhibitory effects of cisplatin on the highly migratory CD166+/EpCAM+ subpopulation
TumCCA↓, combined treatments induced cell cycle arrest, therefore triggering CSC growth inhibition via the intrinsic apoptotic pathway.
VEGF↓, curcumin markedly decreased the metastasis of breast tumour cells to the lung and suppressed the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9)
MMP9↓,
toxicity↓, Furthermore, curcumin has been found to be safe when administered at ≤10 g/day in humans

59- QC,    Quercetin Inhibits Breast Cancer Stem Cells via Downregulation of Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1), Chemokine Receptor Type 4 (CXCR4), Mucin 1 (MUC1), and Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EpCAM)
- in-vitro, BC, MDA-MB-231
ALDH1A1↓, lowered the expression levels of proteins related to tumorigenesis and cancer progression, such as aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1, C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4, mucin 1, and epithelial cell adhesion molecules.
CXCR4↓,
MUC1↓,
EpCAM↓,
CSCs↓, quercetin suppressed breast cancer stem cell proliferation, self-renewal, and invasiveness
TumCP↓,
TumCI↓,
CD44↓, High doses of quercetin inhibit proliferation of MDA-MB-231 cells and CD44+/CD24− CSCs
CD24↓,
Apoptosis↑, Quercetin induces apoptosis of MDA-MB-231 cells
TumCCA↑, These results indicate that quercetin alters the MDA-MB-231 cell cycle

96- QC,  docx,    Quercetin reverses docetaxel resistance in prostate cancer via androgen receptor and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways
- vitro+vivo, Pca, LNCaP - in-vitro, Pca, PC3
PI3K/Akt↓, PI3K/Akt signaling pathway was excessively activated after prostate cancer cells developed resistance to docetaxel. And quercetin could also reverse the activation of this pathway.

Bcl-2↓,
EpCAM↓,
Twist↓, Twist2
E-cadherin↑,
P-gp↓, Quercetin reverses docetaxel resistance by reversing the up-regulation of P-gp
TumCP↓, quercetin had the reversal effect of docetaxel-resistance, which could inhibit cell proliferation, migration, invasion and colony formation of docetaxel-resistant prostate cancer cells.

631- VitC,    Vitamin C preferentially kills cancer stem cells in hepatocellular carcinoma via SVCT-2
- vitro+vivo, Liver, NA
SVCT-2∅, response to VC was correlated with sodium-dependent vitamin C transporter 2 (SVCT-2) expressions. Most importantly, SVCT-2 was highly expressed in liver CSCs
