Beta-mangostin (BM) is a xanthone-type of natural compound isolated from Cratoxylum arborescens. This study aimed to examine the apoptosis mechanisms induced by BM in a murine monomyelocytic cell line (WEHI-3) in vitro and in vivo.
METHODS
A WEHI-3 cell line was used to evaluate the
Xanthones are phytochemical compounds found in a number of fruits and vegetables. Characteristically, they are noted to be made of diverse properties based on their biological, biochemical, and pharmacological actions. Accordingly, the apoptosis mechanisms induced by beta-mangostin, a xanthone
The study of the chemical constituents of branches and twigs of Cratoxylum cochinchinense collected in Singapore led to the isolation and structural elucidation of four new xanthones, named cratoxanthone A (1), B (2), C (3), and D (4), together with six known xanthones (5-10) and one known
The cytotoxic activity of ethanol extracts from 53 parts of 36 species of medicinal and edible plants cultivated in Okinawa was measured by using K562 human leukemia cells by a flow cytometric method. Two extracts from Rhodea japonica and Hypericum chinense were cytotoxic at a concentration of 10
