Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Our study showed that the combination of caffeine and 5-FU significantly inhibited the proliferation of HCC cells in vivo and in vitro comparing with caffeine or 5-FU monotherapy.
Taken together, this is the first study to demonstrate that the combination of caffeine and 5-FU inhibits HCC cells proliferation and promotes cellular apoptosis by regulating intracellular ROS production.
The CI values of caffeine (0.5 mM) combined with 5-FU (25, 50 μM) were all less than 1, confirming that the utilization of drug combination has a synergistic inhibitory effect on the proliferation of HCC cells.
