Caffeic acid derivatives are increasingly regarded as potential oncoprotective that could inhibit both the initiation and progression of cancer. Here we have synthesized seven 1-arylnaphthalene lignans and related compounds and tested their impact on breast cancer cell growth in tissue culture. The
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the anticancer activity of bornyl caffeate in the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7.
METHODS
The cell viability was determined using the MTT assay, and apoptosis was initially defined by monitoring the morphology of the cell nuclei and
In the present work, lipophilic caffeic and ferulic acid derivatives were synthesized, and their cytotoxicity on cultured breast cancer cells was compared. A total of six compounds were initially evaluated: caffeic acid (CA), hexyl caffeate (HC), caffeoylhexylamide (HCA), ferulic acid (FA), hexyl
Two new diastereomeric lignan amides (4 and 5) serving as dimeric caffeic acid-l-DOPA hybrids were synthesized. The synthesis involved the FeCl3-mediated phenol oxidative coupling of methyl caffeate to afford trans-diester 1a as a mixture of enantiomers, protection of the catechol units,
The roots/rhizomes of Cimicifuga racemosa L. (Nutt.) (black cohosh) have traditionally been used to treat menopausal symptoms through an unknown mechanism of action. In an effort to determine if black cohosh had additional health benefits, methanol extracts were investigated for their potential to
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,
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 The antioxidant ferulic and caffeic acid phenolics are ubiquitous in plants and abundant in fruits and vegetables. We have synthesized a series of ferulic and caffeic acid esters and tested for tumor cell proliferation, cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and -2) and lipid peroxidation inhibitory
