The skin irritating principle from Thapsia garganica was isolated, named thapsigargin and the structure elucidated. By inhibiting the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) ATPase (SERCA) thapsigargin provokes apoptosis in almost all cells. By conjugating thapsigargin to peptides, which are only
Androgen is a major growth factor in the normal prostate and determines the overall number of prostate cells. Metastatic prostate cancer, while initially responsive to androgen ablation, eventually becomes hormone-refractory and resistant to many treatments. Unfortunately, there are very few agents
Thapsigargin is a major terpenoid constituent of Thapsia garganica root. Owing to its potent antagonistic effect on the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, thapsigargin has been widely used to study Ca2+ signalling and is also a potential drug for prostate cancer. Despite its importance,
Calcium concentration within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays an essential role in cell physiology. We have investigated the effects of basiliolides, a novel class of C19 dilactones isolated from Thapsia garganica, on Ca(2+) mobilization in T cells. Basiliolide A1 induced a rapid mobilization of
Objective
Thapsigargin (TG) is a natural product that exists in most parts of the plant
Thapsia garganica L. and possesses potential anti
cancer activities against variety tumor cell lines. TG induces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and apoptosis by inhibiting
cancerThapsigargin was originally isolated from the roots of the Mediterranean umbelliferous plant Thapsia garganica in order to characterize the skin irritant principle. Characteristic chemical properties and semi-syntheses are reviewed. The biological activity was related to the subnanomolar affinity
BACKGROUND
Effective drugs to treat osteoarthritis (OA) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are needed.
OBJECTIVE
To identify essential oils (EOs) with anti-inflammatory activity in cell models of OA and IBD.
METHODS
EOs from Eryngium duriaei subsp. juresianum (M. Laínz) M. Laínz (Apiaceae),

Thapsigargin and nortrilobolide are sesquiterpene lactones found in the Mediterranean plant Thapsia garganica L. Thapsigargin is a potent inhibitor of the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase pump, inducing apoptosis in mammalian cells. This mechanism has been used to develop a
The sesquiterpene lactone thapsigargin is found in the plant Thapsia garganica L., and is one of the major constituents of the roots and fruits of this Mediterranean species. In 1978, the first pharmacological effects of thapsigargin were established and the full structure was elucidated in 1985.
