E2Fs Cancer Research Results

E2Fs, E2F family of transcription factors: Click to Expand ⟱
Source: HalifaxProj(inactivate)
Type:
E2Fs have been classified as transcriptional activators (E2F1-3) or transcriptional repressors (E2F4-8), and are thus predicted to play a dual role in human cancers.
Activators: E2F1,2,3a,3b
Repressors: E2F4,5,6,7a,7b,8
As a tumor suppressor and oncogene, the transcription factor E2F1 is a downstream regulator of the Rb pathway.
The role of E2Fs in CSCs is widely regarded as an activator gene. Up-regulation of E2Fs is reported to be involved in proliferation promotion (21), maintenance and acquisition of self-renewal (22, 23), invasion and metastatic progression (24) and resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy (25) in many CSCs.

3201- EGCG,    Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG): Pharmacological Properties, Biological Activities and Therapeutic Potential

*cardioP↑,
*neuroP↑,
*BioAv↝, Factors such as fasting, storage conditions, albumin levels, vitamin C, fish oil, and piperine have been shown to affect plasma concentrations and the overall bioavailability of EGCG
*BioAv↓, Conversely, bioavailability is reduced by processes such as air oxidation, sulfation, glucuronidation, gastrointestinal degradation, and interactions with Ca2+, Mg2+, and trace metals,
*BioAv↓, EGCG’s oral bioavailability is generally low, with marked differences observed across species, for example, bioavailability rates of 26.5% in CF-1 mice and just 1.6% in Sprague Dawley rats
*Dose↝, plasma concentrations exceeded 1 μM only when doses of 1 g or higher were administered.
*Half-Life↝, Specifically, a dose of 1600 mg yielded a Cmax of 3392 ng/mL (range: 130–3392 ng/mL), with peak levels observed between 1.3 and 2.2 h, AUC (0–∞) values ranging from 442 to 10,368 ng·h/mL, and a half-life (t1/2z) of 1.9 to 4.6 h.
