In this study, we investigate the anticancer effect of isoobtusilactone A (IOA), a constituent isolated from the leaves of Cinnamomum kotoense, on human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells. IOA was found to induce the arrest of G2-M phase, induce apoptosis, increase sub-G1, and inhibit the
Five new compounds, kotolactone A (1), kotolactone B (2), secokotomolide (3), kotodiol (4), and 2-acetyl-5-dodecylfuran (5), and 36 known compounds have been isolated from the stem wood of Cinnamomum kotoense. The structures of these new compounds were determined by means of spectroscopic analysis.
Isoobtusilactone A, a constituent isolated from the leaves of Cinnamomum kotoense, has been demonstrated by us earlier to be an agent capable of inducing apoptotic cell death of Hep G2 cells. In order to clarify if caspases alone were the sole mediator for eliciting this apoptotic process, a broad
Hepatoma cells are relatively resistant to TRAIL. We have previously shown that isoobtusilactone A (IOA), a potent anticancer agent isolated from Cinnamomum kotoense, induced mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in hepatoma cells. Here, we report that IOA could potentiate TRAIL-induced apoptosis in Hep
Chemoprevention by the use of naturally occurring substances is becoming a promising strategy to prevent cancer. In this study, the effects of isoobtusilactone A, a novel constituent isolated from the leaves of Cinnamomum kotoense, on the proliferation of human hepatoma Hep G2 cells were studied.
