Research Abstract |
We demonstrated that Tesirolimus cause G1 cell cycle arrest in colon cancer cell lines with inhibition of cyclin D1 protein production. Furthermore, we also indicated that Tesirolimus inhibits production of Hypoxia-inducible factor-alpha protein of colon cancer cell lines under the environment of hypoxia. Those explications of the mechanisms of Tesirolimus against cancer proliferation may play an important role in the selection of anticancer agents for colon cancer.
