A new compound 2 and two known guaiane-type sesquiterpenoids were isolated from the methylene chloride-soluble fraction of the methanolic extract of the fruits of Torilis japonica (Umbelliferae) through repeated silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. Their chemical structures were
The number of patients who die from lung cancer is steadily increasing. According to the 2012 statistics, lung cancer accounts for the highest percentage of death from cancer in both sexes. Many research studies found that lung cancer can be caused not only by smoking but by outdoor pollution, and
A sesquiterpene compound reversing multidrug-resistance in cancer cells was isolated from the fruits of Torilis japonica and the structure was identified as torilin. Torilin potentiated the cytotoxicities of adriamycin, vinblastine, taxol and colchicine against multidrug-resistant KB-V1 and MCF7/ADR
Torilis japonica extract (TJE) has been reported to possess diverse medicinal properties including anti‑inflammatory and antibacterial activities. However, the precise mechanism of its anticancer effect is not understood. Thus, we evaluated the apoptotic effects of TJE and examined its underlying
Torilin is a sesquiterpene compound purified from fruits of Torilis japonica (Umbelliferae). In this study, we demonstrated the anti-angiogenic activity of torilin using in vivo and in vitro assay systems. Torilin decreased both neovascularization of chick embryos in the chorioallantoic membrane
Torilin is a sesquiterpene compound purified from Torilis japonica (Umbelliferae). We have previously reported that torilin has a potent anti-angiogenic activity both in vivo and in vitro. In the present study, we investigated the anti-invasive activity of torilin, and interestingly found that
Methanol extracts of 36 samples of 21 Umbelliferae plants were screened for polyacetylenic compounds using the ELISA for panaxytriol, and their antiproliferative activity was checked by MTT assay using the tumor cell lines MK-1, HeLa and B16F10. The presence of antiproliferative polyacetylenes was
Abnormal metastasis of carcinoma is associated with the loss of epithelial features and the acquisition of a mesenchymal phenotype. The stimulation of cells with epidermal growth factor (EGF) resulted in morphological changes and induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). EGF stimulation
Torilis japonica is a wild biennial herb and has been used as a traditional medicine for the treatment of inflammation, skin disease and impotence. Here, we studied the effects of a T. japonica extract on the proliferation of the U87MG human glioblastoma cell line. The extract inhibited cell
An investigation of the aqueous ethanolic extract (AE) of the aerial parts of Torilis radiata Moench yielded two triterpenes (lupeol acetate (1) and α-amyrin (2)), a sterol (spinasterol (3)) from its n-hexane fraction (HF), a flavone (acacetin (4)), a coumarin (scopoletin (5)), a phenolic acid
