Cryptotanshinone (CTT), extracted from the root of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge (Danshen), exhibits activities against a variety of human cancers in vitro and in vivo. The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential inhibitory effect of CTT on bladder cancer. In this
Cryptotanshinone (CPT), a natural compound isolated from the plant Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, is a potential anticancer agent. However, little is known about its anticancer mechanism. Here, we show that CPT inhibited cancer cell proliferation by arresting cells in G(1)-G(0) phase of the cell cycle.
The constitutive activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(STAT3) is associated with aggressive development and metastasis in colorectal cancer (CRC), but STAT3-targeting drugs remain elusive in clinic. Here, structure-based strategy was used to remodel the natural compound
The study is to investigate the effect of cryptotanshinone (CTS) on airway remodeling and the possible mechanism. Male BALB/c mice were pretreated with CTS or dexamethasone 30 min before nebulized inhalation of ovalbumin (OVA). CTS significantly inhibited OVA-induced increases of eosinophils and
Cryptotanshinone (CT), one major lipophilic component isolated from Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, has shown to possess chemopreventive properties against various types of cancer cells. In this study, CT was shown to be a potent anti-angiogenic agent in zebrafish, and mouse models and could limit tumor
Cryptotanshinone is one of the compounds extracted from the root of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge. Unlike other tanshinones, only a small number of studies have focused on cryptotanshinone for medical treatment. In the present study, the A549 lung cancer cell line and xenograft models of human lung
Cryptotanshinone (CTS), a natural product isolated from Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, demonstrates anticancer effect. Previous reports showed that CTS induced caspase-independent cell death. Here, we reported that CTS induced pro-death autophagy in human lung cancer cells. CTS inhibited the
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) selectively induces apoptosis and kills cancer cells but not normal cells. However, TRAIL resistance due to low level of TRAIL receptor expression is widely found in cancer cells and hampers its development for cancer treatment. Thus,
Cryptotanshinone (CPT) is a natural compound extracted from herbal medicine that has been previously shown to possess antitumor properties in various types of human cancer cells. In the present study, we examined the potential role of CPT in the treatment of colorectal cancer. Using SW480, HCT116,
Arsenic trioxide has been successfully used for the treatment of patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) worldwide. Recently, it has also been further developed to treat solid tumors in clinical trials. However, the therapeutic effects on malignant tumors appeared to be unsatisfactory, as
Lung cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed malignancies worldwide. Cryptotanshinone (CPT) is a diterpene quinone compound extracted from natural plants and has been reported to have anticancer effects in several cancers including human lung cancer. However, the mechanism by which CPT acts to
Cryptotanshinone (CPT), a natural compound isolated from the plant Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, is a potential anticancer agent. However, the underlying mechanism is not well understood. Here, we show that CPT induced caspase-independent cell death in human tumor cells (Rh30, DU145, and MCF-7).
Melanoma is the most serious type of skin cancer because it is highly frequency of drug resistance and can spread earlier and more quickly than other skin cancers. The objective of this research was to investigate the anticancer effects of cryptotanshinone on human melanoma cells in vitro, and
Cryptotanshinone (CT), isolated from the plant Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, has been reported to have potential anticancer effects on human prostate and breast cancer cells. However, the mechanisms of action of CT on gastric cancer (GC) cells are not well understood. Here we investigated the antitumor
Estrogen receptor (ER) is a major therapeutic target for the treatment of breast cancer, because of the crucial role of estrogen signaling deregulation in the development and progression of breast cancer. In this study, we report the identification of a novel ERα binding compound, cryptotanshinone
