Simple and convergent synthesis of a tetra- and a trisaccharide portions of an antitumor compound Julibroside J(28), isolated from Albizia julibrissin, that showed significant in vitro antitumor activity against HeLa, Bel-7402 and PC-3M-1E8 cancer cell lines is reported. The tetrasaccharide has been
1. Thiazolidine derivatives (TD), the products of condensation of L-cysteine (cys) with sugars (D-glucose, D-xylose, D-arabinose, D-galactose, and D-mannose), successfully elevated nonprotein sulfhydryl (NPSH) levels in livers of Ehrlich ascites tumor (EAT)-bearing mice. 2. At the same time, TD
Carbohydrate-based vaccines have shown therapeutic efficacy for infectious disease and cancer. The mushroom Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi) containing complex polysaccharides has been used as antitumor supplement, but the mechanism of immune response has rarely been studied. Here, we show that the mice
The occurrence of chronic diarrhoea was evaluated in 173 consecutive patients previously treated with radiation for gynaecological cancer. A survey of gastrointestinal symptoms showed a high frequency of diarrhoea; 13% of the patients had 21 or more bowel movements a week and 3% had 28 or more.
The natural cytotoxic marine compound, jaspine B, is stereoselectively synthesized from D-xylose in 11 linear steps with a 23.9% overall yield. The key step in the synthesis involves an iodine-induced debenzylation of a primary alcohol and the subsequent 2,5-cyclization to fit the required
The enhancement of tumor cell susceptibility to macrophage binding and cytolysis by the pretreatment of tumor cells by p-aminobenzoic acid-N-xyloside sodium salt (K-247) was investigated in the C3H/He mouse-syngeneic tumor system. Binding and cytolytic activities of Corynebacterium parvum-activated
BACKGROUND
Oligosaccharides are composed of a variable number of monosaccharide units and very important in the biologically diverse of biological systems.
METHODS
Crude water-soluble oligosaccharide was extracted from the fruiting bodies with water and then successively purified by DEAE-cellulose
5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), in association with leucovorin (LV), is the most used chemotherapy agent in the treatment of colorectal cancer. Response rate, as well as side-effect incidence, increases with the dose intensity of regimens that are used. The most common dose-limiting toxicity for 5-FU/LV
BACKGROUND
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth may contribute to the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, perhaps by increasing intestinal permeability and promoting the absorption of endotoxin or other enteric bacterial products.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the prevalence of small
OBJECTIVE
Irinotecan (CPT-11), a camptothecin derivative, has shown efficacy against colorectal cancer. Delayed-onset diarrhea is its main limiting toxicity. The aim of this study was to determine the pathophysiology of CPT-11-induced delayed-onset diarrhea and assess the efficacy of combined
The SARS-Cov-2 pandemic that currently affects the entire world has been shown to be especially dangerous in the elderly (≥65 years) and in smokers, with notably strong comorbidity in patients already suffering from chronic diseases, such as Type 2 diabetes, cancers, chronic respiratory diseases,
Grifola frondosa, a polypore fungus that grows at the base of trees, is an edible and medicinal mushroom with a large fruiting body characterized by overlapping caps. Japanese scholars found that Grifola frondosa polysaccharide or D-fraction is the major biologically active ingredient, which is a
A new Grifola frondosa mutant, M270, was successfully isolated for high production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs) using cosmic radiation-induced mutagenesis. We found that the mutant M270 had a clearer and thicker EPS layer (~10 µm) adhering to mycelia than those of its parent strain 265 after Congo
Transformation of NIH Swiss mouse fibroblasts by a murine sarcoma virus was influenced by the type of carbohydrate in the culture medium. Exposure to D-mannose and 2-deoxy-D-glucose caused a reduction in the number of transformed colonies in vitro and tumor formation in vivo. This is a new type of
Brown tides were first observed in 2009 in the north-western Bohai Sea (Qinhuangdao sea area), China, and blooms have occurred at different scales in late spring every year since then. Although the detrimental effects on marine organisms of the causative phytoplankton species Aureococcus
