Atypical parkinsonism in the Caribbean island of Guadeloupe: etiological role of the mitochondrial complex I inhibitor annonacin.

Only registered users can translate articles

On the French West Indian island of Guadeloupe, atypical parkinsonian patients represent two-thirds of all cases of parkinsonism, which is exceptionally frequent compared to epidemiological data from European countries where atypical parkinsonism accounts for only approximately 5% of all cases. The

[Annonacins and Annonastatin from Annona squamosa].

Only registered users can translate articles

Annonacin ( 1), annonacin A ( 6), and annonastatin ( 7) were isolated from the seeds of ANNONA SQUAMOSA L. (Annonaceae). Compounds 6 and 7 are described for the first time. The relative configuration of the tetrahydrofuran core of 1 (with hitherto unknown configuration), as well as those of

Additional bioactive acetogenins, annomutacin and (2,4-trans and cis)-10R-annonacin-A-ones, from the leaves of Annona muricata.

Only registered users can translate articles

In a continuation of our research on bioactive components from the leaves of Annona muricata, three novel monotetrahydrofuran Annonaceous acetogenins, namely, annomutacin [1], (2,4-trans)-10R-annonacin-A-one [2], and (2,4-cis)-10R- annonacin-A-one [3], have been identified. Their structures were

Larvicidal and Enzymatic Inhibition Effects of Annona muricata Seed Extract and Main Constituent Annonacin against Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae).

Only registered users can translate articles

The mosquitoes Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are vectors of arboviruses that cause dengue, zika and chikungunya. Bioactive compounds from plants are environmentally sustainable alternatives to control these vectors and thus the arboviruses transmitted by them. The present study

Method development for quantification of the environmental neurotoxin annonacin in Rat plasma by UPLC-MS/MS and application to a pharmacokinetic study.

Only registered users can translate articles

Annonacin is an environmental neurotoxin identified in the pulp of several fruits of the Annonaceae family (for example in Annona muricata, Asimina triloba), whose consumption was linked with the occurrence of sporadic atypical Parkinsonism with dementia. Pharmacokinetic parameters of this molecule

Annonacin in Asimina triloba fruit: implication for neurotoxicity.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The acetogenin, annonacin, from the tropical annonaceous plant Annona muricata, is a lipophilic, mitochondrial complex I inhibitor reported to be more toxic than rotenone to mesencephalic neurons. The temperate annonaceous plant Asimina triloba (pawpaw) is native to the Eastern United

Annonacin promotes selective cancer cell death via NKA-dependent and SERCA-dependent pathways.

In the healthcare sector, phytocompounds are known to be beneficial by contributing or alleviating a variety of diseases. Studies have demonstrated the progressive effects of phytocompounds on immune-related diseases and to exhibit anticancer effects. Graviola tree is an evergreen tree with its

Annonacin, a mono-tetrahydrofuran acetogenin, arrests cancer cells at the G1 phase and causes cytotoxicity in a Bax- and caspase-3-related pathway.

Only registered users can translate articles

Annonaceous acetogenins are a group of potential anti-neoplastic agents isolated from Annonaceae plants. In this study, we purified annonacin, a cytotoxic mono-tetrahydrofuran acetogenin, from the seeds of Annona reticulata and analyzed its biological effects. Herein, we have shown that annonacin

Modulation of cancer signalling pathway(s) in two -stage mouse skin tumorigenesis by annonacin.

Only registered users can translate articles

Annonacin, an annonaceous acetogenin isolated from Annona muricata has been reported to be strongly cytotoxic against various cell lines, in vitro. Nevertheless, its effect against in vivo tumor promoting activity has not been reported yet. Therefore, this study was aimed to

Annonacin Exerts Antitumor Activity through Induction of Apoptosis and Extracellular Signal-regulated Kinase Inhibition.

UNASSIGNED Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecologic malignancy in developed countries. Annonacin, a natural pure compound extracted from the seeds of Annona muricata, is a potential alternative therapeutic agent to treat EC. UNASSIGNED To study the antitumor activity of annonacin and

Annonacin, a novel, biologically active polyketide from Annona densicoma.

Only registered users can translate articles

A new linear polyketide, Annonacin (I), has been isolated from active extracts of the stembark of Annona densicoma Mart. Annonacin (I) is highly cytotoxic and is active in an assay designed to detect antimitotic agents. The structure of (I) was determined by analysis of spectroscopic data.

Synthesis of annonacin isolated from Annona densicoma.

Only registered users can translate articles

A total synthesis of annonacin (1) was accomplished by using versatile chiral building block 2 for synthesizing the mono-tetrahydrofuran (THF) annonaceous acetogenins.

Annonacin induces cell cycle-dependent growth arrest and apoptosis in estrogen receptor-α-related pathways in MCF-7 cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Tamoxifen resistance is common in estrogen receptor-α (ERα)-positive breast cancers. Pawpaw and soursop are anticancer annonaceous plants in complementary medicine. Thus, we studied the effects of annonacin, an annonaceous acetogenin, in breast cancer cells. METHODS Cell growth and

The mitochondrial complex I inhibitor annonacin is toxic to mesencephalic dopaminergic neurons by impairment of energy metabolism.

Only registered users can translate articles

The death of dopaminergic neurons induced by systemic administration of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I inhibitors such as 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP(+); given as the prodrug 1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine) or the pesticide rotenone have raised the question as to whether this

Annonacin, a lipophilic inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I, induces nigral and striatal neurodegeneration in rats: possible relevance for atypical parkinsonism in Guadeloupe.

Only registered users can translate articles

In Guadeloupe, epidemiological data have linked atypical parkinsonism with fruit and herbal teas from plants of the Annonaceae family, particularly Annona muricata. These plants contain a class of powerful, lipophilic complex I inhibitors, the annonaceous acetogenins. To determine the neurotoxic
