Worenine / LDHA Cancer Research Results

Wor, Worenine: Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
Worenine - Coptis Chinensis (Huanglian in Chinese), a famous traditional herbal medicine used for clearing heat and detoxification.
Worenine is classified as a plant-derived alkaloid.

-Worenine may exert anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.
-Production of lactic acid and the uptake and consumption of glucose is significantly inhibited.
-The protein and mRNA levels of GLUT3, HK2, PFK-L, PKM2, and LDHA in HCT116 cells are reduced.
LDHA, Lactate dehydrogenase A: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
LDHA is a key enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate into lactate while regenerating NAD+, essential for glycolysis.
Elevated levels of LDHA have been associated with increased tumor growth and survival. By promoting lactate production, cancer cells can create an acidic microenvironment that may facilitate invasion and metastasis.
Is often upregulated in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, colorectal, and prostate cancers. This upregulation is associated with the metabolic shift that cancer cells undergo to support rapid growth and proliferation.
Measuring the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is a useful method for detection of necrosis.
