lantadene/発がん過程

Lantadenes are pentacyclic triterpenoids isolated from leaves of Lantana camara L. and have antitumor activity. Lantadene A (LA) and methyl ester of LA (LAM) were earlier studied in the author's lab for their chemopreventive effect on 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) followed by

Two-stage carcinogenesis of mouse skin papillomas induced by 7,12-dimethylbenz[alpha]anthracene and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate, and mouse hepatic tumors induced by N-nitrosodiethylamine and phenobarbital, were inhibited by lantadenes.

Pentacyclic triterpenoid lantadene A congener with hydroxyl functionality in ring A was designed and synthesised on the basis of enhancement of polarity and bioactivity. The new synthesised compound 22β-angeloyloxy-methyl-2-hydroxy-3-oxoolean-1,12-dien-28-oate (6) was screened for cytotoxicity

Five new derivatives of the pentacyclic triterpenoid lantadene A (= 22beta-angeloyloxy-3-oxoolean-12-en-28-oic acid; 1) from the leaves of Lantana camara L. were synthesized, characterized, and screened for their cytotoxicities against four human cancer cell lines. The three most-potent compounds,

Lantadenes are pentacyclic triterpenoids of the weed Lantana camara. Five new lantadenes (14-18) and their methyl esters (20-24) were synthesized, characterized, and screened for cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines. The parent compound (1) and the four most active compounds (15, 16,

A simple and economical method was developed for the extraction and isolation of pentacyclic triterpenoid lantadene A from the leaves of Lantana camara. The lantadene A displays significant anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties via the inhibition of IKK-mediated NF-κB protein.
