P-glycoprotein (Pgp) is an ATP-driven membrane exporter for a broad spectrum of hydrophobic xenobiotics. Pgp-overexpression is a common cause of multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer cells and could lead to chemotherapeutic failure. Through an extensive herbal drug screening program we previously
The methanolic extract of the rhizomes parts of Agelica purpuraefolia was investigated for its activity against chloroquine-sensitive strains of Plasmodium falciparum using the parasite lactate dehydrogenase assay method. Two natural khellactone, (+)-4'-Decanoyl-cis-khellactone (1) and
A new coumarin, hydroxylomatin (1), was isolated from the CHCl(3)-soluble fraction of the roots of Angelica purpuraefolia, along with one ferulate (2) and three other known coumarins (3-5) including khellactone (3). The structure of hydroxylomatin (1) was determined to be
Angelica genus (umbelliferae) has traditionally been used as the medicine and health food considered alleviating several used in the treatment of cancer as well as non-cancerous diseases. Angelica purpuraefolia Chung is an endemic species and a folk medicine in Korea. We have previously reported
An asymmetric synthesis of a series of novel 4-methyl-(3'S,4'S)-cis-khellactone derivatives 3a-o is reported for the first time. Their structures were confirmed by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and MS. Their cytotoxic activity was evaluated by the MTT assay against three selected human cancer cell lines: HEPG-2
This study deals with the design and synthesis of a series of novel 4-methoxy-substituted and 5-methyl-substituted (3'S,4'S)-(-)-cis-khellactones. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 13C-NMR, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. All the
The overexpression of P-glycoprotein (Pgp), an ATP-driven membrane exporter of hydrophobic xenobiotics, is one of the major causes of multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer cells. Through extensive screening we have found that the extracts of Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn. and one of the major
The pyranocoumarins, (+/-)-3'-angeloyl-4'-acetoxy-cis-khellactone, were isolated from Radix Peucedani, the dry root of Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn, through bioassay-guided fractionation. The chemical structure of pyranocoumarins was determined by mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance
Angelica amurensis has traditionally been used to treat various medical problems. In this report, we introduce cis-khellactone as a new anti-cancer agent, which was isolated from the chloroform soluble fraction of the rhizomes of Angelica amurensis. Its anti-cancerous effect was at first tested in
Coumarins are fused benzene and pyrone ring systems with a wide spectrum of bioactivities, including antitumor, anti-inflammation, antiviral, and antibacterial effects. In this paper, the current development of coumarin-based drugs is introduced, and their structure-activity relationship is
