The potentiating action of the flavonolignan, (-)-hydnocarpin, in combination with vincristine was evaluated in the 697 acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line and a P-gp-expressing variant, 697-R. Vincristine at 3 nM caused nearly complete growth inhibition in 697 cells versus a 17% growth
OBJECTIVE
Brucea javanica was studied to identify nuclear factor kappaB (NF-κB) inhibitors exhibiting reactive oxygen species (ROS) intracellular amplification.
METHODS
Eight compounds were evaluated for selective cytotoxicity using HT-29, HeLa, and HL-60 cells, and in a NF-κB assay. Active
Flavonolignans isolated from Hydnocarpus wightiana seeds, namely hydnowightin, hydnocarpin, and neohydnocarpin, demonstrated potent hypolipidemic activity in mice, lowering both serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels at 8 mg/kg/day ip. Hydnowightin demonstrated the best lipid-lowering effect of
