Oxyprenylated compounds (i.e., ferulic acid and coumarin derivatives) demonstrate neuroprotection and anticancer properties as reported in previous studies. We have tested the affinity of oxyprenylated ferulic acid (1-4) and umbelliferone derivatives (5-11) to melatonin receptors as well as their
The aim of the present study is to isolate bioactive compounds from the roots of Piper sarmentosum and examine the mechanism of action using human breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231). Bioassay guided-fractionation of methanolic extract led to the isolation of asaricin (1) and isoasarone (2).
In this study, the apoptotic mechanism and combinatorial chemotherapeutic effects of the cytotoxic phenylpropanoid compound 1'S-1'-acetoxyeugenol acetate (AEA), extracted from rhizomes of the Malaysian ethnomedicinal plant Alpinia conchigera Griff. (Zingiberaceae), on MCF-7 human breast cancer cells
Background and objective: Rosmarinic acid is considered as one of the most important secondary metabolites in medicinal plants especially of family Lamiaceae. Rosmarinic acid can prevent both the tumor initiation and promotion stages of
BACKGROUND
Smilax riparia A. DC., known as "Niu-Wei-Cai" in China, is distributed through the south and middle of China. The roots and rhizomes of Smilax riparia have been used not only as traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) for the treatment of bronchitis, lumbago of renal asthenia, traumatic
Syringin (Syr), a phenylpropanoid glycoside extracted from Eleutherococcus senticosus, possesses various biological properties, including anticancer activities. However, the cytotoxicity effects of Syr on breast cancer have not yet been elucidated.In this Naturally occurring phenylpropanoids, hinokiresinol (trans-hinokiresinol) and nyasol (cis-hinokiresinol) were found to possess appreciable estrogen receptor binding activity. Strong differences in activity were observed between the geometrical isomers and enantiomers. Among these,
Chloroform extracts of the underground parts of two Balkan endemic Laserpitium species, Laserpitium zernyi Hayek and Laserpitium ochridanum Micevski, were chemically investigated. Five unknown guaianolides from the class of slovanolides, of which four were additionally 2β-esterified, as well as two
Eugenol a phenylpropanoid, predominantly found in clove is a very common spice in daily cuisine. It already reported to have anti-breast cancer activity. In this study, the effect of eugenol on CSC (Cancer Stem Cell) markers and its main regulator β-catenin both in vivo Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma
Two new polycyclic prenylated xanthones (1 and 2) and a new phenylpropanoid glycoside (3), along with seven known compounds (4-10) were isolated from the fruits of Garcinia xanthochymus. The structures were elucidated by 1D- and 2D-NMR, and HRMS experiments. The isolates were evaluated for their
A new lignan, actaealactone (1), and a new phenylpropanoid ester derivative, cimicifugic acid G (2), together with 15 known polyphenols, protocatechuic acid, protocatechualdehyde, p-coumaric acid, caffeic acid, methyl caffeate, ferulic acid, ferulate-1-methyl ester, isoferulic acid,
The glycosylated phenylpropanoid verbascoside isolated from cultured cells of the medicinal plant Syringa vulgaris (Oleaceae) has previously been characterized as an effective scavenger of biologically active free radicals such as hydroxyl, superoxide, and nitric oxide, as a chelator of redox active
Acteoside and martynoside are plant phenylpropanoid glycosides exhibiting anticancer, cytotoxic and antimetastatic activities. We investigated their potential to activate estrogen receptor isoforms ERalpha and ERbeta in HeLa cells transfected with an estrogen response element (ERE)-driven luciferase
Cancer is one of the most major diseases that threatens human health and life. The aim of this work was to obtain novel anticancer molecules from D. fragrans, a kind of medicinal plant. The structure of the new compound was identified using spectroscopic data (¹H-NMR, 13C-NMR and two dimensions
Patrinia heterophylla Bunge, known as "Mu-Tou-Hui" in China, is distributed in most provinces and regions of China. As a traditional medicinal plant, which was first found in <Ben- Cao-Gang- Mu>. In many traditional herbal books, there are records of
