The inducible transcription factor nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) plays a central role in the regulation of immune, inflammatory and carcinogenic responses. While normal activation of NF-kappaB is required for cell survival and immunity, its deregulated expression is a characteristic of
BACKGROUND
Piper nigrum [Piperaceae], commonly known as black pepper is used as medicine fairly throughout the greater part of India and as a spice globally.
OBJECTIVE
To isolate piperine and evaluate in vitro cytotoxic [antiproliferative] activity and in silico method.
METHODS
Piperine was isolated
BACKGROUND
Alkaloids of Piper longum L. (Piperaceae) (PLA) include piperine and piperlonguminine. Piper longum and piperine have multiple biological properties including antioxidant activity.
OBJECTIVE
The present study investigated the neuroprotective effects of PLA in a MPTP-induced mouse model of
Total chlorophyll content and chlorophyllase (chlorophyll-chlorophyllido hydrolase EC 3.1.1.14) activity in fresh leaves of Piper betle L. landrace KS was, respectively, twofold higher and eight fold lower than KV, showing negative correlation between chlorophyll and chlorophyllase activity.
BACKGROUND
Alkaloids from Piper longum (PLA), extracted from P. longum, have potent anti-inflammatory effects. The aim of this study was to investigate whether PLA could protect dopaminergic neurons against inflammation-mediated damage by inhibiting microglial activation using a lipopolysaccharide
OBJECTIVE
To discuss the protective effect of alkaloids from Piper longum (PLA) in rat dopaminergic neuron injury of 6-OHDA-induced Parkinson's disease and its possible mechanism.
METHODS
The rat PD model was established by injecting 6-OHDA into the unilateral striatum with a brain solid positioner.
Scientists are constantly searching for phytochemical compounds with anti-cancer activity. In this study, activity of plant extract NPB001-05 from Piper betle was tested on human chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) xenograft models. NPB001-05 was active when dosed orally (500 mg/kg) once or twice a
We screened water and methanol extracts of 28 Indonesian medicinal plants for their protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitory activities. Nine water extracts, i.e., Alstonia scholaris leaf, Blumea balsamifera, Cinnamomum burmannii, Cymbopogon nardus, Melaleuca leucadendra, Phyllanthus
BACKGROUND
The kava-kava plant (Piper methysticum) is traditionally consumed by the pacific islanders and has been linked to be involved in several biological activities. Flavokawain B is a unique chalcone, which can be found in the roots of the kava-kava plant. In this study, the operational
Areca quid (AQ) chewing has been implicated an independent risk factor for the development of oral cancer. Taiwanese areca quid (AQ) refers to a combination of areca nut (AN), lime, and inflorescence of Piper betle Linn. (IPB) or Piper betle leaf (PBL). Studies of AQ in other countries reported that
BACKGROUND
An effective docking algorithm for antibody-protein antigen complex prediction is an important first step toward design of biologics and vaccines. We have recently developed a new class of knowledge-based interaction potentials called Decoys as the Reference State (DARS) and incorporated
Background: Amide alkaloidsare typical constituents in plants of the Piperaceae family. Most of the pharmacological properties of Piper nigrum L. are attributed to the major amide alkaloid, piperine. Piperyline (PIPE) is a further amide
The deregulated activity of the Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase provides a rational basis for the development therapeutics in all phases of Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML). Although a well studied imatinib therapy has clinical success against CML, resistance to imatinib due to mutations in the kinase
Piperlongumine (PL), isolated from Piper longum L., is receiving intense interest due to its selectively ability to kill cancer cells but not normal cells. We synthesized a number of analogues by replacing the cyclic amide of PL with aliphatic amides to explore structural diversity. Compound CG-06
The c-Met protein, a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase, is the product of a proto-oncogene. Its only known ligand, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), regulates cell growth, motility, migration, invasion, proliferation, and angiogenesis. The aberrant expression of c-Met is often associated with
