cuphea racemosa/悪性腫瘍

BACKGROUND Cuphea aequipetala (Lythraceae) is a medicinal plant highly appreciated in Mexico to treat stomach ailments such as pain and burning sensation, stomach infections, ulcers, diarrhea, dysentery, and different types of tumors and bruises. In this work, the infusion of aerial parts of this

Phenolic metabolite profiling using two dimensional paper chromatographic analysis (2 DPC) was used for assaying the complex mixture of phenolics of an aqueous ethanol aerial part extract of Cuphea ignea (Lytheraceae). A coumarin with a rare structure, namely, 7-hydroxy 3-methoxy coumarin

Cuphea aequipetala (Lytraceae) is a perennial plant that has been used in Mexican traditional medicine to treat different types of tumors since prehispanic times. In the present work the cytotoxic potential of different fractions from acetone-water extract from the whole plant was investigated using

We evaluated the antitumor activities of four macrocyclic hydrolyzable tannin dimers, cuphiin D1, cuphiin D2, oenothein B and woodfordin C isolated from Cuphea hyssopifolia (Lythraceae). All significantly inhibited the growth of the human carcinoma cell lines KB, HeLa, DU-145, Hep 3B, and the

Cuphea aequipetala (C. aequipetala) has been used in Mexican traditional medicine since prehispanic times to treat tumors. In this paper, we evaluated the antiproliferative and apoptotic effect of the methanolic and aqueous extracts of C. aequipetala on several cancer cell lines

Lung cancer has one of the highest mortality rates among various types of cancer and is the most frequent cancer in the world. The incidence of lung cancer is increasing rapidly, in parallel with an increased incidence of smoking. Effective chemoprevention may be an alternative strategy to control

Cuphiin D1 (CD1), macrocyclic hydrolyzable tannin isolated from Cuphea hyssopifolia, has been shown to exert an antitumor effect both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, CD1 significantly inhibited the growth of the human cervical carcinoma, i.e. HeLa, cells and showed less cytotoxicity to normal
