Tetrandrine is a bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid known to exhibit anticancer activity against different cancers. In the present study, the cytotoxic effect of tetrandrine isolated from Cyclea peltata on pancreatic (PANC-1) and breast (MDA-MB-231) cancer cells was evaluated in vitro with an attempt to
Cissampentine A (1), an enantiomer of cissampentin, three new cycleatjehenine-type bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloids, cissampentine B-D (2-4), and five known alkaloids were isolated from the roots of Cyclea tonkinensis. Their structures were established by interpretation of NMR, high-resolution ESI-MS
Six new bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloids, racemosidines A-C (1-3) and racemosinines A-C (4-6), and four known compounds were isolated from the roots of Cyclea racemosa. Compound 1 is the first bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid reported that has diphenyl ether bridges at C-11/C-7' and C-8/C-12' and a
Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide, however, drug resistance is still a tough problem of it. As in many other cancers, p53 mutations are commonly observed in HCCs (Hussain et al., 2007; Levine et al., 1994) [1,2]. Tumor tissues with mutant p53 seems to be
In view of multi-dimensional activity of plant drugs beneficial to complex disorders like diabetes, the present study has been undertaken to evaluate the effect of aqueous extract of C. peltata roots on serum glucose, lipid profile, insulin, inflammatory marker namely tumour necrosis factor
