squamocin/悪性腫瘍

BACKGROUND Histone modifications in tumorigenesis are increasingly recognized as important epigenetic factors leading to cancer. Increased phosphorylation levels of histone H3 as a result of aurora B and pMSK1 overexpression were observed in various tumors. We selected aurora B and MSK1 as

Annonaceous acetogenins are a group of potential anti-neoplastic agents isolated from Annonaceae plants. We purified squamocin, a cytotoxic bis-tetrahydrofuran acetogenin, from the seeds of Annona reticulata and analyzed its biologic effects on cancer cells. We showed that squamocin was cytotoxic to

Annonaceous acetogenins have potent antitumor effect in vitro and in vivo. Squamocin is one of the annonaceous acetogenins and has been reported to have antiproliferative effect on cancer cells. Our results from this study showed that squamocin inhibited proliferation of HL-60 cells with IC50 value

10 kinds of annonaceous acetogenins were selected for antitumor activity testing against human lung cancer cell line A549/Taxol and the structure activity relationship was analyzed.MTT assay was used to detect the inhibitory activities of 10 kinds of annonaceous acetogenins and positive drugs

Four new annonaceous acetogenins (ACGs), squamocin-I (1), II (2) and III (3) and squamoxinone-D (4), together with seven known ACGs (5-11), were isolated from the seeds of Annona squamosa. The structures of all isolates were elucidated and characterised by spectral and chemical methods. Compounds

Chromatography of an ethyl acetate extract of seeds of Annona reticulata led to the isolation of a new cytotoxic gamma-lactone acetogenin, cis-/trans-isomurisolenin, along with six known cytotoxic acetogenins, annoreticuin, annoreticuin-9-one, bullatacin, squamocin, cis-/trans-bullatacinone and

OBJECTIVE The authors' previous studies have demonstrated that anuoning bullatacin and squamocin have anticancer activity in vitro. Squamocin could induce apoptosis of HL-60 cells. The purpose of this paper was to investigate cytotoxicity and antitumor effect of anuoning. METHODS MTT assay was used

Two new annonaceous acetogenins squamocin P (2) and annosquatin III (3) and one new ACG precursor dieporeticenin B (1) along with five known precursors (4-8) were isolated from the seeds of Annona squamosa. Their structures were ascertained by chemical methods and various spectral evidences. These

Bioactivity-directed fractionation of a CHCl(3)-MeOH (1:1) extract prepared from the seeds of Rollinia mucosa led to the isolation of a mixture of eight novel tryptamine amides. Extensive HPLC allowed the isolation of the major component of the mixture, which was characterized as

Two novel cytotoxic acetogenins, purpurediolin (1) and purpurenin (2), were isolated from the seeds of Annona purpurea. Their structures were elucidated by a combination of chemical and spectral methods including MS and NMR measurements. In addition, six known acetogenins were obtained, namely,

Acetogenins (ACG) are naturally occurring compounds that are chemically one of the least investigated families. In the review, we have provided a comprehensive listing of 133 of these compounds for which anti-tumor activity has been documented within the literature. We have compiled and studied
