Antiproliferative Activity of Olive Extract Rich in Polyphenols and Modified Pectin on Bladder Cancer Cells.
Bladder cancer (BC) is one of the most common human cancers. There is an interest in controlling and treating BC and other types of cancer via the use of natural substances and/or combination chemotherapy. Modified forms of pectin have been reported to possess anticancer bioactivity related to the interaction of galactosyl, a main component of pectin, with galectin-3, a carbohydrate-binding protein that is overexpressed on many types of cancer cells. In this study, the antiproliferative effect on BC of novel modified pectins extracted from olives was evaluated. Pectoliv extracts, with high polyphenol content associated to polysaccharides rich in pectin, exhibited an important antiproliferative capacity Topics: Biological Products; Cell Line, Tumor; Galectin 3; Humans; Pectins; Polyphenols; Urinary Bladder Neoplasms | 2020 |
