Dimethylfumarat mindert Proliferation und Metastasierung von humanen Kolonkarzinomzelllinien

Combined inhibition of Bcl-2 and NFκB synergistically induces cell death in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

Abstract Therapeutic options for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) are limited and curative treatment regimens are not available. Thus, new targeted and well-tolerated therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. In this respect, we have recently shown that dimethyl fumerate (DMF) inhibits NF-κB acting as a survival factor in CTCL. Similarly, inhibition of the antiapoptotic protein B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) has been shown to induce cell death in CTCL especially when combined with histone deacetylase inhibitors. Therefore, we hypothesized that inhibition of Bcl-2 should potentiate NF-κB inhibition in a novel combination treatment of CTCL. We show that, in vitro, the Bcl-2 inhibitors ABT-199 an…
