drug basic information
Drug ID: DB11672
Drug Name: Curcumin
Drug Method: Different concentrations of curcumin were exposed to A549 cells for 24 h and cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay. The expression of UCA1 was overexpressed in A549 cells by transfection with pEX-UCA1. Cell proliferation was determined by BrdU staining and assessing the expression of CyclinD1 using western blot and RT-PCR assay. Apoptotic cells were measured by flow cytometry assay. Western blot was performed to assess the expression of apoptosis-related, Wnt and mTOR pathways-related factors.
Drug Response: resistant
Cancer basic information
Cancer: lung cancer
Tissue/Cell: cell line (A549)
