irinotecan / TumCG Cancer Research Results

CPT-11, irinotecan: Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
Irinotecan is a chemotherapy drug widely used to treat several solid tumors. It is a semisynthetic camptothecin derivative and functions primarily as a topoisomerase I inhibitor.
-Active metabolite: SN-38 (much more potent than irinotecan itself)

Common Regimens
Regimen Components
FOLFIRI Folinic acid + 5-FU + Irinotecan
FOLFIRINOX 5-FU + Leucovorin + Irinotecan + Oxaliplatin
XELIRI / CAPIRI Capecitabine + Irinotecan

Potential strategies to sensitize tumors to irinotecan:
Strategy	       Rationale
GSH depletion	       Reduces detox of SN-38
PRDX/TXNRD stress	Lowers redox buffering
Glycolysis inhibition	Limits repair energy
PEMF / AgNPs	        ↑ ROS, ↑ drug uptake
Timing selenium	        Avoid boosting antioxidant defenses during therapy
Report of combining CPT-11 and SeNPs to increase NRF2 in normal cells(chemoprotective) and decrease NRF2 in cancer cells(chemosentization).

Type:
Normal cells grow and divide in a regulated manner through the cell cycle, which consists of phases (G1, S, G2, and M).
Cancer cells often bypass these regulatory mechanisms, leading to uncontrolled proliferation. This can result from mutations in genes that control the cell cycle, such as oncogenes (which promote cell division) and tumor suppressor genes (which inhibit cell division).
