myrtenal/悪性腫瘍

BACKGROUND Metastatic tumor cells have acidic extracellular pH and differential electrochemical H+ gradients generated across their cell membranes by V-type H+-ATPases. This study shows that inhibition of the V-ATPases by the plant-derived monoterpene Myrtenal results in tumor cell death and

Myrtenal is a novel class of compound belongs to monoterpenes found predominantly in mint, pepper, etc., and it was shown to have excellent pharmacological activities against many diseases among which cancer is imperative. Hepatocellular carcinoma is a primary malignancy of the hepatocytes, which

Colon cancer is considered as the precarious forms of cancer in many developed countries, with few to no symptoms; the tumor is often diagnosed in the later stages of cancer. Monoterpenes are a major part of plant essential oils found largely in fruits, vegetables and herbs. The cellular and

The present study was aimed to investigate the effect of myrtenal on diabetes-associated oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation (LPO), and inflammation using a rat model of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes. Following the induction of diabetes in male Wistar rats using STZ (40 mg/kg body weight),

Colon cancer remains as a serious health problem around the world despite advances in diagnosis and treatment. Dietary fibers are considered to reduce the risk of colon cancer as they are converted to short chain fatty acids by the presence of anaerobic bacteria in the intestine, but imbalanced diet

Enantiomerically pure 1, 2-diamino-1-(4-fluorophenyl)butanes were synthesized by stereoselective procedures. The enantiomeric purity was determined by (1)H NMR spectroscopy after derivatization with (1R)-myrtenal. For the coordination to platinum, the diamines were reacted with K(2)PtI(4). Reaction

BACKGROUND Myrtenal, a natural monoterpene occurred in cumin, pepper, mint and eucalyptus. Monoterpenes are naturally occurring plant hydrocarbons composed of two isoprene units and are widely distributed in plant flora and are best known for occurrence in essential oils. Monoterpenes have been

Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the most common cancers and lethal diseases in the world. Recently, many researchers focused to identify novel chemotherapeutic agents from natural sources against hepatocarcinogenesis. The diverse therapeutic potential of essential oils has drawn the attention of

Enantiomerically pure 1, 2-diamino-1-(4-fluorophenyl)propanes were synthesized by stereospecific and stereoselective procedures by use of the (1R, 2S)- and (1S, 2R)-2-amino-1-(4-fluorophenyl)propanols (12a) as intermediates. The enantiomeric purity was determined by (1)H NMR spectroscopy after

Myrtenal is a natural monoterpene isolated from essential oils of several plants and their derivates have shown to have several biological properties including cytotoxicity. The cytotoxic activity of these derivates are being investigated for their antitumor effect leading to the development of
