Aralin from Aralia elata is a newly identified type II ribosome- inactivating protein, which preferentially induces apoptosis in cancer cells. In this study, we identified that the aralin receptor is a 110-kDa high-density lipoprotein-binding protein (HDLBP), which functions as a HDL receptor. The
The wild sarsaparilla (Aralia nudicaulis) plant is richly distributed in North America, mainly in Canada. In the present study, 24 extracts were obtained from the rhizome, stem, leaf and fruit of wild sarsaparilla. In the presence of RH (hexane fraction from the rhizome), the survival rate of WiDr
BACKGROUND
Aralia elata leaves are known to have several biological activities, including anti-arrythmia, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-fatigue, antimicrobial and antiviral effects. Our previous study found that triterpenoid saponins from the leaves of A. elata had antitumor effects.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the anti-tumor activity of ursolic acid (UA) and its derivatives isolated from Aralia decaisneana on hepatocellular carcinoma both in vitro and in vivo.
METHODS
In vivo cytotoxicity was first screened by 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT)
OBJECTIVE
In the course of our screening for novel modulators on cell cycle progression and apoptosis as anticancer drug candidates, we isolated a novel compound HY253 with the molecular structure of 7,8a-divinyl-2,4a,4b,5,6,7,8,8a,9,9a-decahydro-1H-fluorene-2,4a,4b,9a-tetraol from the roots of
In the course of screening for a novel anticancer drug candidate, we previously isolated HY251 with the molecular structure of 3-propyl-2-vinyl-1,2,3,3a,3b,6,7,7a,8,8a-decahydrocyclopenta[a]indene-3,3a,7a,8a-tetraol from the roots of Aralia continentalis. The current study was designed to evaluate
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a disease associated with that the experience of traumatic stress. The traumatic experience results in the development of a prolonged stress response that causes impaired memory function and increased inflammation in the hippocampus. Currently, Aralia elata has long been used as a tonic, anticancer and antidiabetic agent in China and Japan, and is widely consumed as food. Phytochemical investigation of the leaves of A. elata has led to the isolation of four new compounds, 3-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl(1 → 3)-β-D-glucopyranosyl] echinocystic acid
Recently we found that aralin, a novel lectin, from Aralia elata selectively induces apoptosis in human virus-transformed and cancer cells compared with normal cells. To overcome the reduction of aralin biosynthesis according to the development of leaves, we established callus tissues from the young
In this study, a pectin polysaccharide, AER-A3 (Mw 1.12 × 105 g/mol), was isolated and purified from the root bark of Aralia elata by ion exchange and gel-filtration chromatography. Its planar structure was investigated in combination with UPLC-ESI-MS, FT-IR,
Aralia elata Seem. is a traditional folk Chinese medicinal plant and its leaves have been used to treat many diseases. We aimed to evaluate the anti-breast cancer activity and safety pharmacology of the ethanol extract of A. elata Seem. leaves (ELE). Cytotoxicity was evaluated on human tumor cell
Oleanolic acid (OA) is a naturally occurring triterpenoid in food materials and is a component of the leaves and roots of Olea europaea, Viscum album L., Aralia chinensis L. and more than 120 other plant species. There are several reports validating its antitumor activity against different cancer
