Ribosome Inactivating Proteins (RIPs) isolated from Mirabilis jalapa L. (MJ protein) leaves showed high cytotoxic effect on malignant. Chitosan nanoparticles have frequently been used in protein delivery applications. The aim of this study was to develop targeted drug delivery system of RIP MJ for
Ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) from Mirabilis jalapa L. leaves has cytotoxic effects on breast cancer cell lines but is less toxic towards normal cells. However, it can easily be degraded after administration so it needs to be formulated into nanoparticles to increase its resistance to
BACKGROUND
The objective of this study is to investigate the cytotoxic activity of three isolectins purified from the latex of Euphorbia trigona Miller.
OBJECTIVE
Among lectins are the ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs), which are potent inhibitors of protein synthesis in cells and in cell-free
Extracorporeal shock waves are high-pressure pulses of microsecond duration clinically used for lithotripsy. Recently, shock waves been shown to cause a transient increase of the permeability of the cell membrane. We therefore hypothesized that shock waves might be able to transfer tumoricidal
The antiproliferative activity of Saporin 6, a Ribosome-inactivating protein purified from the seeds of Saponaria officinalis has been tested on human breast cancer cells in vitro by the analysis (a) of colony formation in cells from surgical specimens from 27 patients bearing primary breast cancer
Cytotoxic ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) of type II such as ricin were investigated as anti-cancer agents, but also pose a threat as biological weapons. The molecular mechanism leading to their toxic effects is, however, not yet clear. The current paradigm, which states that the irreversible
Nigrin b and ebulin l are type 2 ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) with 10(4) times less cellular and in vivo toxicity than ricin that are currently being considered for the construction of anti-cancer conjugates. Here we provide evidence that both RIPs can be used for the construction of
Immunotoxins specific for the CD80 and CD86 antigens were prepared by linking three type 1 ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs), namely bouganin, gelonin and saporin-S6, to the monoclonal antibodies M24 (anti-CD80) and 1G10 (anti-CD86). These immunotoxins showed a specific cytotoxicity for the
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are a family of enzymes that depurinate rRNA and inhibit protein biosynthesis. Here we report the purification, apoptosis-inducing activity, and polyethylene glycol (PEG) modification of RIP from the bitter melon seeds. The protein has a homogenous N-terminal
Targeting tumour neovasculature using antibodies to the endothelial receptor CD105 (endoglin), is a potentially useful approach for anti-tumour therapy. We report on the preparation and the cytotoxicity of a novel immunotoxin consisting in the non-toxic type 2 ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP)
Riproximin (Rpx) is a type II ribosome inactivating protein, which was extracted and purified from the seeds of Ximenia americana. Previous studies demonstrated cytotoxicity of Rpx against a variety of cell lines originating from solid and non-solid cancers. In this study, we investigated the
The development of new anticancer drugs is a salient problem and the traditional use of plants is a potentially rich source of information for detecting new molecules with antineoplastic activity. Riproximin is a recently detected cytotoxic type II ribosome inactivating protein with high selectivity
The anti-CD30 immunotoxin (IT) Ber-H2/saporin is effective in patients with refractory Hodgkin's disease. However, responses are short and partial, one of the main reasons being the inability to repeat IT doses because of formation of human antibodies against the murine antibody and/or the toxin. To
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) belong to a family of enzymes that attack eukaryotic ribosomes and potently inhibit cellular protein synthesis. RIPs possess several biomedical properties, including anti-viral and anti-tumor activities. Multiple RIPs are known to inhibit tumor cell
alpha-Sarcin is a ribosome inactivating protein produced by the mould Aspergillus giganteus. The effect of this protein on eight different tumour cell lines has been studied in the absence of any agent affecting membrane permeability. The protein is cytotoxic for all the tumour cell lines
