Parthenolide (PT) is responsible for the bioactivities of feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium). Apart from its potent anti-inflammatory effects, this compound has been reported to induce apoptosis in various cancer cells. However, little is known about its role in the process of tumor angiogenesis. In
The transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) regulates genes important for tumor invasion, metastasis and chemoresistance. Normally, NF-kappaB remains sequestered in an inactive state by cytoplasmic inhibitor-of-kappaB (IkappaB) proteins. NF-kappaB translocates to nucleus and activates
Parthenolide, a clinically useful agent and migraine prophylaxis principle from the medicinal plant, feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium), was tested on two tumor cell lines for its ability to inhibit cell growth. At concentrations above 5.0 microM and an exposure time of 24 h, parthenolide inhibited
OBJECTIVE
Parthenolide (PTL), a representative sesquiterpene lactone that is responsible for medicinal properties of the feverfew, is known to modulate diverse intracellular signaling pathways, thereby exerting the tumor growth-inhibitory effects. In this study, authors attempted to examine the
Parthenolide, a natural product from the feverfew plant and member of the large family of sesquiterpene lactones, exerts multiple biological and therapeutic activities including anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects. Here, we further study the parthenolide mechanism of action using
The medicinal herb feverfew [Tanacetum parthenium (L.) Schultz-Bip.] has long been used as a folk remedy for the treatment of migraine and arthritis. Parthenolide, a sesquiterpene lactone, is considered to be the primary bioactive compound in feverfew having anti-migraine, anti-tumor, and
The use of herbs for medical benefit has played an important role in nearly every culture on earth. Herbal medicine was practiced by ancient cultures in Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas. The recent popularity in use of herbals can be tied to the belief that herbs can provide some benefit over
Parthenolide (PN) is a major sesquiterpene lactone of feverfew (Tanacetum parthanium) with known anti-inflammatory activity. However, the anticancer effects of PN have not been well studied. In the present investigation, we examined the cancer chemopreventive property of PN using a combination of in
Parthenolide (PT), a sesquiterpene lactone extracted from the plant feverfew, has been demonstrated to have anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties. Although PT has been revealed to markedly inhibit colorectal cancer cell proliferation, the inhibitory effects decrease with administration time.
BACKGROUND
Tanacetum polycephalum L. Schultz-Bip is a member of the Asteraceae family. This study evaluated the chemopreventive effect of a T. polycephalum hexane extract (TPHE) using in in vivo and in vitro models.
RESULTS
Five groups of rats: normal control, cancer control, TPHE low dose, TPHE
In this study the cytotoxicities of two species of Tanacetum were evaluated against human tumor cells. Tanacetum oshanahanii extract was more cytotoxic than Tanacetum ptarmiciflorum. Analyses of both extracts of Tanacetum by ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry
Parthenolide, the principal component of sesquiterpene lactones present in medical plants such as feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium), has been reported to have anti-tumor activity. In this study, we evaluated the therapeutic potential of parthenolide against bladder cancer and its mechanism of action.
Parthenolide is a major sesquiterpene lactone derived from feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium) with known anti-inflammatory activity. Moreover, the anticancer potential of this compound was suggested. In this study, we determined the effect of parthenolide on proliferation of three human cancer cell
Chrysanthemum boreale is a plant widespread in East Asia, used in folk medicine to treat various disorders, such as pneumonia, colitis, stomatitis, and carbuncle. Whether the essential oil from C. boreale (ECB) and its active constituents have anti-proliferative activities in lung
BACKGROUND
By studying the Iranian Traditional Medicine (ITM) Pharmacopoeia, we have collected information about medicinal plants which had been used to manage cancer-like disorders over eight hundred years, from medieval to the early modern era. Exploring the ITM herbal knowledge, the selected
