Possible Interaction: Genistein and Gefitinib

supplement:

Genistein

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Gefitinib together with genistein enhanced both growth inhibition and apoptosis; however, the greatest synergistic effect was observed at low concentrations.
These findings suggest that genistein enhanced the antitumor effects of gefitinib in a NSCLC cell line carrying the T790M mutation.

Genistein in combination with gefitinib promoted the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and cleaved poly ADP-ribose polymerase.
Genistein in combination with gefitinib significantly inhibited cell viability, promoted apoptosis and reduced EGFR, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor and platelet-derived growth factor receptor phosphorylation.
In addition, combined treatment of genistein and gefitinib strongly inhibited the activation of the Akt/Erk/mTOR signaling pathway.
In conclusion, findings from the present study suggest that genistein in combination with gefitinib inhibit HCC cell proliferation and promote apoptosis by inhibiting the Akt/Erk/mTOR pathway.
