Additive pharmacological interaction between sirtuin inhibitor cambinol and paclitaxel in MCF7 luminal and MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer cells.
Article in Pharmacological reports : PR, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundBreast cancer (BC) is the most common malignancy and the leading cause of cancer-related death in women worldwide. Sirtuin inhibitors (SIRTi), belonging to the histone deacetylase inhibitors group (HDIs), are potent epigenetic drugs that have been investigated for therapeutic use in different clinical disorders, including hematological malignancies and solid tumors.
methodsThe influence of cambinol (CAM; SIRTi) used individually or in combination with standard chemotherapeutic paclitaxel (PAX) on viability (MTT assay), proliferation (BrdU assay), induction of apoptosis and cell cycle arrest (FACS analysis) was determined in MCF7 luminal and MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. The types of pharmacological drug-drug interaction between CAM and PAX were determined by an exact and rigorous pharmacodynamic method-an isobolography, to determine the presence of synergism, addition or antagonism between analyzed drugs using a variety of fixed-dose ratios.
resultsThe combination of CAM and PAX at a fixed ratio of 1:1 exerted additive interaction in the viability of MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 BC cells. Both active agents used separately reduced viability and proliferation of BC cells as well as induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. These effects were much more evident in MCF7 than in MDA-MB-231 BC cells. Additionally, CAM combined with PAX increased anti-cancer activity compared to PAX used alone.
conclusionCAM might be considered a potential therapeutic agent individually or in combined therapy with PAX against luminal or TNBC.
