In a recent study, the antiproliferative effect of different carotenoids, including (3-carotene, lycopene and lutein, on PCNA and cyclin Dl expression in human KB cells have been studied. The results indicate that carotenoids suppressed cell growth by acting as inhibitors of the expressions of PCNA and cyclin Dl, although in a different extent (Cheng et al., 2007). On the other hand, (3-carotene was able to induce a cell cycle delay in G2/M phase by decreasing the expression of cyclin A in human colon adenocarcinoma cells (Palozza et al., 2002a).

The human colon adenocarcinoma cell line (Caco-2) assay is still commonly used to measure the potential for a compound to be absorbed. It measures the permeability potential because permeability is a component of the absorption process,3 27 31 Multiple reports discuss the use of HPLC/MS/MS to support the Caco-2 assay.32 38...

In MDR cells, a significant fraction of P-gp is found associated with caveolin-rich membranes, and there is a substantial increase in the number of caveolae and caveolin-1 protein level. For example, both multidrug resistant human colon adenocarcinoma HT-29 cells and adriamycin-resistant breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7 cells display about a 12-fold increase in caveolin expression, which correlates with an approximate fivefold increase in morphologically identifiable caveolae [55], In addition, these cells exhibit increased amounts of phospholipase D and lipids such as cholesterol, glucosylceramide, and sphingomyelin [56, 57], Similarly, taxol-resistant A549 cells display both increased caveolin expression and caveolae numbers [58], While these correlations track with MDR, they do not suggest a simple mechanism for the role of... 

Cell monolayers grown on permeable culture inserts form confluent mono-layers with barrier properties and can be used for drug absorption experiments. The most well-known cell line for the in vitro determination of intestinal drug permeability is the human colon adenocarcinoma Caco-2 [20, 21], The utility of the Caco-2 cell line is due to its spontaneous differentiation to enterocytes under conventional cell culture conditions upon reaching confluency on a porous membrane to resemble the intestinal epithelium. This cell model displays small intestinal carriers, brush borders, villous cell model, tight junctions, and high resistance [22], Caco-2 cells express active transport systems, brush border enzymes, and phase I and II enzymes [22-24], Permeability models... 

Other cell lines used in permeability studies include the T84 human colonic adenocarcinoma colonic crypt cell model. This line has a reduced carrier expression, secrets mucus, and has very high resistance [31, 32], The IEC cell line is a rat fetal intestinal epithelium cell with higher permeabilities than Caco-2 cells [33], LLC PKi is a pig kidney epithelial cell line with low expression of efflux systems, but expression systems for transport proteins [32], 2/4/A1 cells are a conditionally immortalized rat fetal intestinal epithelium line with crypt cell-like morphology and temperature-sensitive differentiation [34], They form differentiated monolayers with tight junctions, increased brush border enzymes when grown on extracellular matrices with laminin. Transport of drugs with LP in 2/4/A1 monolayers was comparable to that in the human jejunum and up to 300 times faster than that in Caco-2 monolayers. In contrast, the permeability of HP drugs was comparable in both cell lines [34],...
