BACKGROUND
Metastasis refers to the spread of a primary tumor cell from the primary site to other locations in the body and it is generally associated with the severity of a tumor. Extract of Ginkgo biloba (EGb) contains various bioactive compounds and it exerts beneficial effects including
Although the standard ginkgo biloba extract EGb 761 exhibits antioxidative, anti-apoptotic, and anticancer properties, there is no research focusing on the chemopreventive effects of EGb 761 in colorectal cancer (CRC). The present study investigated whether EGb 761 could increase 5-fluorouracil
BACKGROUND
Ginkgo biloba extract (GbE) is used extensively by breast cancer patients undergoing treatment with Tamoxifen (TAM). Thus, the present study investigated the effects of GbE in female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats bearing chemically-induced mammary tumors and receiving TAM.
METHODS
Animals
OBJECTIVE
Patients undergoing treatment for cancer often report problems with their cognitive function, which is an essential component of health-related quality of life. Pursuant to this, a two-arm randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, phase III clinical trial was conducted to evaluate
Heat-shock proteins (HSPs) are molecular chaperones that protect proteins from damage. HSP27 expression is associated with cancer transformation and invasion. Ginkgo biloba extract (EGb761), the most widely sold herbal supplement, has antiangiogenic effects and induces tumor apoptosis. Data
The standardized extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves (EGb 761) has been shown to inhibit aggressive human breast cancer cell proliferation both in vitro and in vivo. These results were extended to human glioma and hepatoma cells in vitro suggesting that EGb 761 may have a more widespread application for
OBJECTIVE
To study the therapeutic mechanism of Ginkgo biloba exocarp polysaccharides (GBEP) on gastric cancer.
METHODS
Thirty patients with gastric cancer were treated with oral GBEP capsules. The area of tumors was measured by electron gastroscope before and after treatment, then the inhibitory
OBJECTIVE
To observe the clinical efficacy of Ginkgo biloba exocarp polysaccharides (GBEP) capsule preparation in treating upper digestive tract malignant tumors of middle and late stage.
METHODS
Eighty-six patients of the upper digestive tract malignant tumors were treated with GBEP capsule
Ginkgo biloba is a dioecious tree and its extract is a complex mixture that has been used for thousands of years to treat a variety of ailments in traditional Chinese medicine. The aim of this study was to present our observations on the inhibitory effects of different Ginkgo biloba extracts on
OBJECTIVE
Evidence from in vitro and in vivo studies suggests that Ginkgo biloba has cancer chemopreventive properties, but epidemiological evidence is sparse. We analyzed cancer as a secondary endpoint in the Ginkgo Evaluation of Memory (GEM) Study, the largest randomized, double-blind,
The biotransformation of 2α,5α,10β-triacetoxy-14-oxo-taxa-4(20),11-diene (1) by cultured Gingko cells afforded four products. Their structures were identified on the basis of analyses of the chemical and spectroscopic (IR, MS, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR) data. Among them, 2, 3 and 5 were three new compounds,
Ginkgo biloba leaf extract (GBE) has been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine and today is used as an herbal supplement touted for improving neural function and for its antioxidant and anticancer effects. Herbal supplements have the potential for consumption over extended periods of
We have investigated whether Ginkgo biloba extract (EGb 761) induces apoptosis of oral cavity cancer cells and attempted to characterize the apoptotic pathway activated by EGb 761. The inhibition of SCC 1483 oral cavity cancer cells proliferation was noted from 250 micro/ml of EGb 761. Apoptosis was
OBJECTIVE
This study was conducted to examination whether Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE), a Chinese herb with antioxidant activity, could reduce cytokine-induced monocyte/human aortic endothelial cell (HAEC) interaction, a pivotal early event in atherogenesis.
RESULTS
Pretreatment of HAECs with GBE (50
Women receiving treatment for breast cancer commonly ingest herbal medicines. Little is known about the potential for herb-drug interactions in this population. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of ginkgo biloba co-administration on the pharmacokinetics of tamoxifen, anastrozole and
