BACKGROUND
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIP) have been studied in the search for toxins that could be used as immunotoxins for cancer treatment. Pulchellin, a type 2 RIP, is suggested to induce immune responses that have a role in controlling cancer.
METHODS
The percentage of dendritic cells and
2-Desoxy-4-epi-puchellin (PCL) is a sesquiterpene-lactone, which naturally occurs in many traditional Chinese medicinal plants, and has antitumor and anti-inflammatory activities. In this work, a series of 13-amino derivatives of PCL were synthesized through Michael addition reaction. Inhibition of
We investigated the function and molecular mechanisms of 2-desoxy-4β-propylcarbamate-pulchellin (P-13), a sesquiterpene lactone derivative of 2-desoxy-4-epi-pulchellin from the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Carpesium abrotanoides L, in regulating STAT3 signaling and cancer cell growth. We found
