Periplocymarin, a cardiac glycoside isolated from Periploca sepium (P. sepium) and Periploca graeca (P. graeca), is a potential anti-cancer compound. The aim of the study was to investigate the potential for periplocymarin to interact with P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and to inhibit cytochrome P450s known
BACKGROUND
During a screening of Chinese plants traditionally used for the treatment of cancer and related diseases, extracts of the root bark of Periploca sepium Bunge showed strong cytotoxic activity.
OBJECTIVE
Isolate and identify cytotoxic compounds from P. sepium and investigate the effects and
OBJECTIVE
Cardenoliddes are steroid glycosides which are known to exert cardiotonic effects by inhibiting the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase. Several of these compounds have been shown also to possess anti-tumor potential. The aim of the present work was the characterization of the tumor cell growth inhibition
