We have shown previously that hypoxia activates the cyclin D1 promoter via the Jak2/STAT5b pathway in breast cancer cells. Most solid tumors contain hypoxic components and overexpression of cyclin D1. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the molecular mechanism by which momilactone B
Although momilactone B has been studied as an allelochemical of rice (Oryza sativa L.), to date we have no report showing the effect of momilactone B on mammalian cells. This study was undertaken to examine whether this allelochemical has anticancer activity on cancer cells. We show here that
The cytotoxic and antitumor activity of methanolic extract of rice hulls (MERH) were evaluated by the MTT-dye reduction assay against human colon cancer cells and the colonic aberrant crypt foci (ACF) assay in 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-injected F344 male rats, respectively. MERH was found to be
The labdane-related diterpenoid, momilactone B has potent growth inhibitory activity and was demonstrated to play a particularly critical role in the allelopathy of rice (Oryza sativa L.). However, there is limited information available about the mode of action of momilactone B on the growth
