The friend leukemia integration 1 (Fli-1) gene is involved in the expression control of key genes in multiple pathogenic/physiological processes, including cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis; this implies that Fli-1 is a strong candidate for drug development. In our previous study, a
The potent epoxide hydrase inhibitor, 1,1,1-trichloro-2,3-propene oxide (TCPO), enhanced the tumor-initiating ability of benzo[alpha]pyrene (BP) and 3-methylcholanthrene (MCA) but had no effect on 9,10-dimethyl-1,2-anthracene (DMBA) initiation in a two-stage system of tumorigenesis in female Charles
A series of novel 3-[4-phenyl-1-piperazinyl]-1-[5-methyl-1-(2-pyrimidinyl)-4-pyrazolyl]-1-trans-propenes and related compounds were synthesized and evaluated by their cytotoxic activity against several tumor cell lines in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity against some tumor models when
A series of novel 3-substituted-1-[5-methyl-1-(2-pyrimidinyl)-4-pyrazolyl]-1-trans-propenes in order to improve the in vitro and in vivo activity of our prototype 3-[4-(3-chlorophenyl)-1-piperazinyl]-1-[5-methyl-1-(2-pyrimidinyl)-4-pyrazolyl]-1-trans-propene (2) were synthesized and evaluated by
In our joint project in the search for anti-tumor promoters from natural plant sources, we carried out a primary screening of 12 phenylpropanoids isolated from Boronia pinnata Sm. (Rutaceae) by examining their possible inhibitory effects on Epstein-Barr virus early antigen (EBV-EA) activation
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the chemical constituents of Desmodium blandum and their cytotoxic activity against the growth of several tumor cells.
METHODS
Various chromatographic techniques including silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography were employed for the isolation and purification of
The presence of certain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the breath of patients with gastric cancer has been reported by a number of research groups; however, the source of these compounds remains controversial. Comparison of VOCs emitted from gastric cancer tissue to those emitted from
In cancer treatment, developing ideal anticancer drug delivery systems to target tumor microenvironment by circumventing various physiological barriers still remains a daunting challenge. Here, in our work, a series of pH- and temperature-responsive nanogels based on
Chalcone or (E)-1,3-diphenyl-2-propene-1-one scaffold remained a fascination among researchers in the 21st century due to its simple chemistry, ease of synthesis and a wide variety of promising biological activities. Several natural and (semi) synthetic chalcones have shown anti-cancer activity due
Association of intestinal bacteria with endogenous production of some reactive compounds was studied by determination of adducts to haemoglobin in blood from germ-free and corresponding control mice. N-terminal valines in haemoglobin were analysed with regard to adducts from malonaldehyde (MA),
Methyleugenol is used as a flavoring agent in jellies, baked goods, nonalcoholic beverages, chewing gum, candy, pudding, relish, and ice cream. It is also used as a fragrance in perfumes, creams, lotions, detergents, and soaps. Methyleugenol has also been used as an insect attractant in eradication
Toxicology and carcinogenesis studies of technical-grade 3-chloro-2-methylpropene (containing 5% dimethylvinyl chloride), a widely used insecticide and a chemical intermediate, were performed on F344/N rats and B6C3F1 mice. In the 13-week studies, 50%-100% mortality occurred in groups of male and
Novel pyrimidinyl pyrazole derivatives were synthesized and examined for cytotoxic and antitumor activity. Mannich reaction was employed to construct this scaffold. Among the compounds synthesized, a series of propene derivatives exhibited a potent cytotoxic activity against some tumor cell lines
Several novel sulfides from acetone extracts of bulbs of garlic (Allium sativum L.), were identified and investigated. These were named garlicnins B(1) (1), C(1) (2), and D (3), and they were found to have the ability to control macrophage activation. Garlicnins B(1) (1) and C(1) (2) possess a new
Tridentate chelating agents, as potential antitumor agents, were prepared by condensing 2-quinolylhydrazines, 2-pyridylhydrazine and 2-benzothiazolylhydrazine with pyridine-2-aldehyde, 6-methylpyridine-2-aldehyde, 2-acetylpyridine and 2-benzoylpyridine. All compounds were tested against Lymphocytic
