Tf, Transferrin: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
Transferrin is a glycoprotein found in the blood that binds and transports iron throughout the body.
Its primary role is to deliver iron to various tissues, especially to cells that require iron for processes like hemoglobin synthesis.
Transferrin itself is a circulating protein primarily produced by the liver.

Although its serum levels are clinically monitored (e.g., in iron studies and nutritional assessments), cancer-related studies more commonly focus on uptake mechanisms (via the transferrin receptor) rather than on changes in transferrin production per se.
In some tumor microenvironments, local factors might influence transferrin levels, but the clinical focus tends to be on how cancer cells take up iron.

eff↑, AKBA and aspirin revealed that AKBA has higher potential via modulation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, and NF-kB/COX-2 pathway in adenomatous polyps
PPARα↓, AKBA is also responsible for down-regulation of PPAR-alpha and C/EBP-alpha in a dose and temporal dependent manner in mature adipocytes, ultimately leading to pparlipolysis
lipid-P?,
STAT3↓, activation of STAT-3 in human MM cells could be inhibited by AKBA
TOP1↓, (PKBA; a semisynthetic analogue of 11-keto-β-boswellic acid), had been reported to influence the activity of topoisomerase I & II,
TOP2↑,
5HT↓, (5-LO), responsible for catalyzing the synthesis of leukotrienes from arachidonic acid and human leucocyte elastase (HLE), and serine proteases involved in several inflammatory processes, is considered to be a potent molecular target of BA derivative
p‑PDGFR-BB↓, BA up-regulates SHP-1 with subsequent dephosphorylation of PDGFR-β and downregulation of PDGF-dependent signaling after PDGF stimulation, thereby exerting an anti-proliferative effect on HSCs hepatic stellate cells
PDGF↓,
AR↓, AKBA targets different receptors that include androgen receptor (AR), death receptor 5 (DR5), and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), and leads to the inhibition of proliferation of prostate cancer cells
DR5↑, induced expression of DR4 and DR5.
angioG↓, via apoptosis induction and suppression of angiogenesis
DR4↑,
Casp3↑, AKBA resulted in activation of caspase-3 and caspase-8, and initiation of poly (ADP) ribose polymerase (PARP) cleavage.
Casp8↑,
cl‑PARP↑,
eff↑, AKBA was preincubated with LY294002 or wortmannin (inhibitors of PI3K), it caused a significant enhancement of apoptosis in HT-29 cells
chemoPv↑, chemopreventive response of AKBA was estimated against intestinal adenomatous polyposis through the inhibition of the Wnt/β-catenin and NF-κB/cyclooxygenase-2 signaling pathway
Wnt↓,
β-catenin/ZEB1↓,
ascitic↓, AKBA by the suppression of ascites,
Let-7↑, AKBA could up-regulate the expression of let-7 and miR-200
miR-200b↑,
eff↑, anti-tumorigenic effects of curcumin and AKBA on the regulation of specific cancer-related miRNAs in colorectal cancer cells, and confirmed their protective action
MMP1↓, . It can inhibit the expression of MMP-1, MMP-2, and MMP-9 mRNAs along with secretions of TNF-α and IL-1β in THP-1 cells.
MMP2↓,
eff↑, combined administration of metformin, an anti-diabetic drug, and boswellic acid nanoparticles exhibited significant synergism through the inhibition of MiaPaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cell proliferation
BioAv↓, BA as a therapeutic drug is its poor bioavailability
BioAv↑, administration of BSE-018 concomitantly with a high-fat meal led to several-fold increased areas under the plasma concentration-time curves as well as peak concentrations of beta-boswellic acid (betaBA)
Half-Life↓, drug needs to be given orally at the interval of six hours due to its calculated half- life, which was around 6 hrs.
toxicity↓, BSE has been found to be a safe drug without any adverse side reactions, and is well tolerated on oral administration.
Dose↑, Boswellia serrata extract to the maximum amount of 4200 mg/day is not toxic and it is safe to use though it shows poor bioavailability
